Its front fascia cleverly continues the BYD T5DM's signature style, featuring a closed grille and sunken headlights on both sides, perfectly embodying the hallmark family identity of BYD's new energy vehicles. Dimensions are 5995mm long, 2380mm wide, and 3330mm high, respectively. The left side of the vehicle features an expansion area, housing a range of practical features, including a 3.8-meter-long awning, a foldable table, a convenient charging port, and a standard water inlet. A through-the-door storage compartment at the rear is perfect for storing large luggage during travel.

The driver's cabin features a multi-function steering wheel with adjustable height and four-way adjustment, a full LCD instrument panel, and a large central media display. The central display incorporates the DiLink intelligent vehicle system, which supports voice control. The connected car and online reading materials provide entertainment and relaxation for passengers during long drives. The new vehicle features convenient features such as push-button start and rotary electronic shifting. The near-vertical windshield and excellent ride height provide excellent visibility.

The chassis utilizes BYD's DM Super Hybrid-specific power-type blade battery, with a capacity of 18.3kWh, offering high energy density and safety. The integrated electric drive axle generates a maximum power of 150kW and has a pure electric range of 50km. The range extender is a BYD DM1.5T hybrid engine, utilizing a VGT variable geometry turbocharger and Miller cycle technology, achieving a thermal efficiency of 41% and a power generation efficiency of 93.2%.

The living area is decorated in soft, light colors. With a rated passenger capacity of six, four can comfortably sit in the living area while the vehicle is in motion.

The kitchen area features a unique design, with a split layout that takes practical cooking practices into account, making it ideal for two people to share cooking tasks. The front of the kitchen is dedicated to the cooking area, equipped with an induction cooktop, microwave, and a 220V side-exhaust range hood to meet diverse cooking needs. The rear kitchen area houses the sink, with a concealed table top that doubles as a work surface. Perforated wall panels are built into the walls for convenient hanging of kitchen supplies.


The headboard is generously padded for warmth, with an independent overhead light. Side windows and privacy curtains create a separate, private area at night. Measuring 2000x1250mm, it can accommodate two adults and features a high-density foam mattress for added comfort. The booths can also be connected to form a temporary 1900x930mm bed. The rear transverse bed measures 2200x1200mm, accommodating two adults, and the vehicle offers seating areas for at least five.



The bathroom features a large, waterproof surface, an integrated blister tray at the bottom, and is equipped with a cassette toilet and shower head. A two-way ventilation fan is located on the roof, with ventilation windows, and a warm air vent at the bottom. The system utilizes a dual-inverter, dual-circuit system. The chassis battery provides power to the living area via a 339V 10,000W inverter, while the living area includes a 48V 280Ah lithium iron phosphate battery pack, ensuring comfortable travel even without water or electricity. A 500L clean water tank (including a 50L hot water tank) and a 100L gray water tank ensure sufficient water for long-distance travel.

The BYD T5DM hybrid RV redefines the possibilities of mobile living with its disruptive new energy technology.
