1
In 2023, Japan's largest publishing house bought a Chinese car, rolled it into a workshop and took the whole thing apart, down to the last bolt.
2
Every part photographed, weighed and measured.
3
Then it printed what it found in a 350 -page book, priced at around $6 ,400 a copy,
4
and sold it to the people who could afford it, the engineers at Toyota, Honda and Nissan.
5
Not because the car was bad
6
because the people who invented modern car manufacturing could not fully explain how it had been built
7
so cheaply and they needed to
8
that car was a BYD seal it is sitting in showrooms from Croydon to Glasgow right now from a brand
9
that sold more than 51 ,000 cars in Britain last year
10
more than Tesla in a country where most people could not
11
have told you what the letters stood for three years ago
12
it may well be on your street already whether you have noticed or not.
13
So what did the Japanese find when they opened one up?
14
And the question almost nobody in Britain is asking, is this car cheap to make or cheap to own?
15
Because those are two very different promises and only one of them shows up in a teardown.
16
Everything in this video comes from published sources.
17
The teardown findings come from Nikkei, the Japanese publisher whose engineers physically took a BYD seal apart and printed what they found.
18
The cost analysis comes from UBS, the Swiss investment bank,
19
which ran its own independent teardown of the same car to work out what it really costs to build.
20
More engineering analysis comes from Caresoft Global, an American consultancy that has taken apart BYD's cheapest car for clients in Japan and America.
21
British prices and warranties come from BYD's own published figures.
22
Crash data comes from Euro NCAP and insurance and owner data from British sources.
23
Where something crosses from fact into my interpretation, I will tell you.
24
Start with who spent the money, because that tells you how seriously to take everything else.
25
Nikkei is the same group behind
26
Japan's biggest financial newspaper.
27
It is not a car magazine.
28
It is what the Japanese business establishment reads over breakfast
29
and it decided that a Chinese saloon was worth a complete engineering teardown.
30
That decision alone tells you where the Japanese car industry thought the threat was coming from.
31
The body, the battery pack, the drive unit, the wiring, the interior, every piece photographed and measured as it came off and explained,
32
with repair guidance, in that 350 -page manual.
33
And the preface did not hedge.
34
It described BYD as the Chinese manufacturer that will lead the world of electric vehicles in the future.
35
That is not a Chinese marketing department talking.
36
That is Japan's most respected business publisher writing about a rival.
37
The first thing that struck the engineers was how few parts were inside the car.
38
That sounds like a small thing.
39
It is not.
40
Every part in a car is something to design, something to buy, something to ship,
41
something to fit on the production line and eventually something that can fail on you.
42
Cut the number of parts and you cut the cost at every one of those steps at once.
43
It compounds.
44
And what they found was that BYD was not trimming here and there.
45
It was systematically combining components that almost every other carmaker still buys separately.
46
On BYD's compact SUV, the Atto 3, the kind you see on the school run in Leeds or Bristol,
47
engineers found eight major components folded into one integrated drive unit.
48
The motor, the gearbox, the power electronics and more.
49
Pieces that used to arrive as separate boxes from separate suppliers combined into one.
50
Less weight, simpler assembly, fewer joints to fail on the line.
51
And it did not stop at combining parts.
52
BYD took those combined parts and shared them across several models so one design serves three or four cars instead of one.
53
To a factory accountant, that is close to everything.
54
You order in bigger volumes, you approve one supplier once, you stock one part number.
55
Multiply that across a whole car and the savings stack up line by line.
56
No single dramatic breakthrough, just a thousand small disciplined decisions.
57
And it was not one publisher chasing a headline.
58
In October 2024, the Japanese government's
59
Regional Trade Bureau for Central Japan hosted something that would have been unthinkable a decade earlier.
60
In an old gymnasium in Gifu, just outside Nagoya, in the heart of Japan's car country,
61
it laid out more than 90 ,000 parts stripped from 16 foreign electric cars.
62
BYD, NIO, Tesla all pulled apart and set out on long tables like specimens in a museum.
63
around 70 japanese parts makers the companies behind the parts in your corolla
64
and your yaris sent their people to walk the aisles one
65
of them the head of a department at a japanese parts maker summed up the mood in a sentence
66
he was surprised he said at how few parts byd and tesla used
67
think about
68
that room these are the people who spent the 1980s teaching the rest of the world how to build a reliable car.
69
And there they were, leaning over folding tables, taking notes on a Chinese SUV.
70
The unsettling part was not that BYD had invented something new.
71
It was that it had done what
72
Japan used to be famous for, patient and methodical cost -cutting, and done it better.
73
And it was not staying in Japan.
74
In Detroit, CareSoft Global took apart BYD's cheapest car, the little Seagull hatchback, the car sold in Britain as the Dolphin Surf.
75
The man running that company had been a chief engineer at General Motors and had spent 45 years in the industry.
76
His verdict was that the Seagull was a huge problem for American car makers.
77
A bargain basement price and still a quality product.
78
Ford's own chief executive, Jim Farley, has said publicly that the Chinese are ahead.
79
And Andy Palmer, the British engineer who led the development of the Nissan Leaf and went on to run
80
Aston Martin, has been warning the industry about China for years.
81
So this is no longer one book from one publisher that you can shrug off.
82
Japan, America and the people who built
83
Britain's own car industry arriving at the same conclusion from different directions.
84
So how big is the gap?
85
The sharpest number came from UBS.
86
The bank's analysts took a seal apart to work out what it genuinely costs to build
87
and concluded that BYD has a lasting cost advantage of around 25 % over the established
88
Western car makers.
89
And their verdict on the car itself was blunt.
90
Compared with the mass -market electric cars from the legacy brands, they said, the BYD seal is the better and much cheaper car.
91
And here is the part that should really worry the competition.
92
UBS estimated that BYD still makes a healthy profit on it, a gross margin of around 16%,
93
which the bank said was similar to what carmakers make on ordinary mass -market petrol cars.
94
In other words, the seal is not cheap because BYD is losing money to win customers.
95
It is cheap because BYD can build it for less and still make money.
96
Where does that come from?
97
Integration.
98
And not just in the drive unit, in the whole company.
99
BYD does not design its cars and then go shopping for the pieces.
100
It makes its own batteries, it makes its own motors, it makes its own semiconductor chips,
101
the small controllers almost every other car maker has to buy in from outside.
102
Almost the entire car is made under one roof, and it does it at enormous scale.
103
In November 2024, BYD became the first company in the world to build 10 million electric and plug -in hybrid cars,
104
and it now builds more than 4 million cars a year.
105
Spread the cost of a shared design across 4 million cars and the arithmetic gets uncomfortable for anyone competing against it,
106
which, in Britain, now means every badge on your street that is not Chinese.
107
Right, quick one before the half of this that actually reaches your driveway.
108
If any of this is useful, hit the like button
109
because it puts this in front of somebody who is about
110
to sign for one of these without knowing what they are signing up to
111
and type the badge you drive in the comments one word
112
so everyone can see who is here subscribe if you have not
113
because this channel follows exactly this all year now the battery
114
and this is where it gets interesting
115
if you are the sort of person who keeps a car for years
116
which in britain is most people most electric cars carry their battery cells inside a sealed pack
117
and then bolt
118
that pack into the floor a box inside a bigger box
119
byd throws out the middle layer its blade battery uses long
120
flat cells built directly into the structure of the car the floor of the car
121
and the battery are in effect the same thing byd says this makes the body far stiffer
122
and protects you better in a crash
123
and the seal did earn a full five stars from euro ncap with 89 for adult occupants and 87 for children.
124
The battery chemistry deserves credit too.
125
BYD's blade cells use lithium -ion phosphate with no cobalt in them at all.
126
It is generally regarded as one of the more stable battery chemistries, less prone to overheating than some of the alternatives,
127
and it tends to cope well with being charged.. over
128
and over for years on paper it is clever careful engineering
129
and i am not dismissing it but here is the thing the teardown flagged
130
and it does not appear on the spec sheet
131
when the cells are bonded into the structure they are much harder to remove
132
when the battery reaches the end of its life the design
133
that makes the car efficient to build is the same design that makes it awkward to take apart when it is old.
134
That is a trade -off, but it is your trade -off, not BYD's.
135
And there is a second edge to it.
136
When the battery is part of the structure, a hard impact that damages the floor can damage the battery itself.
137
A structural battery is far harder to repair than a pack you can unbolt and replace.
138
In the worst cases, damage that a petrol car would shrug off can write off the whole vehicle.
139
This channel showed you how that works in the video on the scratch
140
that wrote off a 50 000 pound car it is the same physics
141
and british insurers have noticed the seal sits in insurance groups
142
in the high 40s up to 50 on some versions near the very top of the scale
143
which tells you what the people pricing the risk expect to repair to cost now back to
144
that integrated drive unit because this is where your money is everything
145
Everything so far was about what BYD saves.
146
Everything from here is about who pays for it later.
147
And the answer is not BYD.
148
Folding eight components into one unit is a genuine achievement on the production line.
149
Lower cost, lower weight, fewer joints to leak or rattle.
150
On day one, as a new car, that is a good story.
151
The trouble only shows up later, on your drive, after the warranty runs out.
152
When parts are separate, a failure is often a small, contained repair at any decent garage.
153
A sensor dies, you replace the sensor.
154
But when eight things are combined into one sealed unit, a fault in any one of them can mean replacing the whole assembly
155
because there is nothing left to open up and fix on its own.
156
Think about what that means in practice.
157
A seal on its second owner, five or six years old, the warranty finished, and something in that drive unit starts playing up.
158
Maybe a temperature sensor.
159
Maybe a position sensor on the motor.
160
On a conventional car, a routine job.
161
On this design, you could be looking at a whole unit.
162
And what does a replacement drive unit for a seal cost in Britain, from a dealer or an independent, six years from now?
163
Nobody knows.
164
Not the dealer, not the insurer, not the independent garage that has been fixing Fords for 30 years.
165
That is the honest answer.
166
These cars have not been on British roads long enough to find out.
167
And that uncertainty does not sit with the manufacturer.
168
It sits with you, or with whoever buys the car from you.
169
Then there is the question of where you live.
170
BYD's network in Britain has grown fast, to around 125 sites by the end of last year.
171
That is real progress for a brand this new.
172
But it is concentrated around the cities and big towns, and it is still a fraction of what the established brands have built over decades.
173
If you live in London, Manchester or Birmingham, you are fine.
174
If you live in the Highlands, in mid -Wales or at the far end of Cornwall,
175
the nearest authorised BYD service point may be a very long drive away.
176
And that matters more on this car than on most, because its design, the integrated modules and the battery that is part of the floor,
177
depends heavily on the manufacturer's own diagnostic equipment, software and trained technicians.
178
An independent garage can plug into the standard diagnostic port.
179
It cannot necessarily get into the deeper layers of the battery management system without BYD's own tools and access.
180
That wall is coming down as the independent trade catches up, but today it is there.
181
And then there is the used market, which is where cheap -to -make and cheap -to -own finally collide.
182
A new seal starts at £45 ,730.
183
Used ones are already being advertised from around £28 ,500.
184
As this channel covered in the video on Chinese car values, Chinese brands have been among the fastest depreciating cars in Britain,
185
and price cuts on new stock only push used values down further.
186
In owner satisfaction, the picture is mixed too.
187
In Auto Express's owner survey, the BYD brand's result was described as disappointing.
188
The cars impressed the engineers on the bench.
189
The ownership experience is still being proven on the road.
190
Now, to understand why this teardown rattled the Japanese so badly, you need to know who BYD used to be.
191
Go back to 1995 in Shenzhen.
192
A chemist called Wang Chuanfu borrows money from a relative and starts a company with around 20 employees.
193
not a car company a battery company making rechargeable cells for mobile phones
194
and the way he competed was almost embarrassingly simple the japanese giants
195
that ruled batteries sony
196
and sanyo made their cells with expensive automated machinery wang could not afford any of
197
that so he studied how their batteries were made and rebuilt the process using people where the machines should have been.
198
People called it primitive.
199
It worked.
200
His batteries came in at a fraction of the Japanese price.
201
BYD did not build its first car until 2003, when it bought a struggling state -owned carmaker and started making petrol saloons.
202
And how did it learn to build them?
203
Much the same way.
204
Its first big seller, the F3, looked remarkably like a Toyota Corolla.
205
The company, being carefully taken apart on that Japanese workbench,
206
had spent its own youth learning from the cars of the very engineers who were now studying it.
207
And the timing carries a hard kind of irony.
208
In 2003, the same Japanese publisher put out a long study of China's car industry and concluded that
209
China was about 10 years behind Japan.
210
10 years!
211
Remember that the next time somebody tells you the Chinese are a decade behind.
212
In 2008, Warren Buffett quietly bought a stake in BYD when almost nobody outside
213
China was paying attention.
214
By last year, BYD was building far more fully electric cars than Tesla. In 2023,
215
it became the first Chinese carmaker ever to exhibit at Japan's
216
biggest motor show on the home turf of the giants it once learned from.
217
And then it put the seal on sale to Japanese drivers in the home market of the companies whose cars
218
it had studied.
219
Toyota, meanwhile, has reportedly taken apart several BYD models of its own to learn from them.
220
Britain remembers what a well -made 1990s Japanese car was.
221
A Corolla or a Civic that was still fundamentally sound at 200 ,000 miles.
222
That reputation took decades of real roads to build.
223
The question with BYD is whether the engineering that impressed the teardown teams becomes that kind of proven,
224
durable reputation, or whether it stays impressive on the bench and never gets properly tested by 15 British winters.
225
And that is the honest limit of the whole exercise.
226
A teardown can tell you how a car is built.
227
It can count the parts, weigh the pieces, and estimate the cost almost to the last pound.
228
What it cannot tell you is how that car behaves at 150 ,000 miles after a decade of salted roads, potholes and cold wet winters.
229
Or what it costs to fix when something finally lets go.
230
Those answers only come from time on the road.
231
And these cars have not been on British roads long enough to give them up.
232
The owners are the ones who will find out.
233
So let me give you the practical read, because that is why you are here.
234
First, if you are looking at a BYD, find your nearest authorised service centre.
235
Not the showroom, the service centre.
236
Where will the car actually go when it needs work?
237
If it is more than an hour from home, factor that into the cost of owning it.
238
Not a deal -breaker, but real.
239
Second, understand how you are paying.
240
A great many of these cars in Britain are on PCP deals, or salary sacrifice and company car schemes,
241
cards, helped by the low tax on electric company cars.
242
If you are leasing and handing it back, most of the long -term risk in this video lands on somebody else.
243
If you are buying outright, or you might want to get out early, BYD's used values in Britain are not yet established,
244
and the price cuts on new cars do not help.
245
Third, the warranty, which is genuinely one of the best around.
246
6 years, or 93 ,750 miles on the car,
247
and 8 years, or 155 ,350 miles on the battery, and the battery cover transfers to the next owner.
248
If you are buying used, check exactly how much is left, for which parts, and get it in writing.
249
And on a used one, ask for a battery health report.
250
The battery warranty guarantees that it will keep at least 70 % of its original capacity for those eight years.
251
A health check before you buy tells you how far down
252
that road the car already is and whether the warranty is ever likely to be needed.
253
Fourth, before you sign anything, ring your insurer and ask what a claim involving the battery structure looks like on this car.
254
Not whether they will insure it.
255
What happens after somebody reverses into you in a supermarket car park.
256
That answer will tell you more about owning this car than any review.
257
And the direction has reversed for good.
258
For decades, the ideas flowed out of Japan and into everyone else's factories.
259
Now, the Japanese are buying Chinese cars to take apart.
260
After the seal, Nikkei bought a Zika saloon and took that apart too.
261
The teachers are back at the workbench, and this time they are the ones taking notes.
262
Worth remembering the next time somebody tells you the Japanese badge is automatically the safe one.
263
So here is where I land.
264
The engineers who opened up that seal found something that genuinely unsettled them.
265
Not bad engineering, very good engineering.
266
Disciplined, integrated and cost -controlled in a way the people who invented modern manufacturing recognized immediately
267
because it was their own method used against them.
268
UBS puts BYD's cost advantage at around a quarter.
269
That took 30 years to build.
270
It cannot be copied quickly, and it is why BYD went from nowhere to outselling
271
Tesla in this country in a couple of years.
272
On paper, the seal is a serious car.
273
A good range, 5 euro end cap stars, clever battery integration, and a long warranty.
274
But the questions that matter most are the ones the teardown cannot answer.
275
What the drive unit costs to replace at 100 ,000 miles, out of warranty, at an independent garage.
276
What the parts supply looks like in 2030 for a car that only went on sale here in 2023.
277
And what happens to a structural battery after a serious knock.
278
I am not telling you not to buy one.
279
I am telling you to go in with your eyes open.
280
If you are leasing for three years and handing it back, fair enough, sleep well.
281
If you are buying outright and planning to keep it for a decade, these are the questions to have answered before you hand over the money.
282
The teardown found clever engineering.
283
What it could not find is the mileage you have not driven yet.
284
So, straight talk on what is confirmed and what is not.
285
Confirmed and on the record.
286
The Nikkei teardown and its published findings.
287
The UBS cost analysis.
288
The Caresoft teardown and its engineers' comments the Japanese government's teardown exhibition, and BYD's British prices, warranties, and Euro NCAP rating.
289
Not yet known, because nobody has had to pay for one yet, what a major drive unit repair actually costs in this country.
290
And still developing, BYD's British network, its used values, and the parts picture,
291
as the first big wave of these cars comes off finance and lease deals.
292
Now the part where you can make this better than anything I can research.
293
If you own a BYD, a Seal, a Sea Lion, an Atto 3 or a Dolphin,
294
tell everyone in the comments what owning it has really been like.
295
What the servicing has been like, whether you have needed anything beyond a routine service,
296
and if you have dealt with the warranty, how long it took.
297
And if I have got anything wrong in this video, a figure, a price, a detail, say so.
298
I would rather be corrected by someone who knows than leave a mistake sitting there.
299
And the Japanese did not start with BYD.
300
Years earlier, the same publisher took apart a Tesla
301
and an engineer from a major Japanese carmaker looked at what was inside and said three words that went around the world.
302
That story is coming soon on this channel.

การออกเสียงที่ควรระวัง
- เสียง “sh” และ “zh”: publisher /ˈpʌblɪʃɚ/, garage /ɡəˈɹɑʒ/, reputation /ˌɹɛpjʊˈteɪʃən/, integration /ˌɪn.tɪˈɡɹeɪ.ʃən/, structural /ˈstɹʌk(t͡)ʃəɹəl/

- เสียงท้ายคำ — ออกเสียงให้ครบ ไม่เปลี่ยนเป็นตัวสะกดแบบไทย: seal /siːl/, lease /liːs/, badge /bæd͡ʒ/, petrol /ˈpɛt.ɹəl/, bench /ˈbɛnt͡ʃ/
- /v/ — ไม่ใช่ /w/ ให้ฟันบนแตะริมฝีปากล่าง: clever /ˈklɛv.ɚ/, invent /ɪnˈvɛnt/, arrive /əˈɹaɪv/, verdict /ˈvɜː.dɪkt/, relative /ˈɹɛl.ə.tɪv/

วิธีฝึกกับวิดีโอนี้
- ฟังวิดีโอให้จบหนึ่งรอบโดยยังไม่ต้องพูด แล้วจดคำที่ยังไม่รู้จัก
- เริ่มที่ความเร็ว 0.75× พูดตามทีละประโยค แล้วกลับไปใช้ความเร็วปกติเมื่อเริ่มคล่อง
- อัดเสียงตัวเองแล้วเทียบกับต้นฉบับ โดยสังเกตคำอย่าง seal, publisher, tesla เป็นพิเศษ
