BYD M6 Electric
The M6 continues BYD's untouchable streak of building bang-for-buck machines with widespread appeal. It's not as tech-filled, as technically impressive, nor as sumptuous as some of its siblings, but its unique allure of having seven seats is arguably priceless. Furthermore, there are still creature comforts to be enjoyed (ventilated front seats!), as well as solid practicality thanks to its commendable 440km range. No wonder so many have taken to our roads.

The BYD M6 is the budget family entry-level 7-seater crossover by BYD modelled on the Toyota Wish or Honda Stream. Oh wow it had superb suspension, the best I have experienced, second only to the Citroen CX of the 70s and superior to even the present modern day Mercedes GLB, A, C and E classes! It's even better than the twice as expensive Avatr 07 with computerized air suspension!!! Its definitely better than X-Peng and Aion Hyptec. It's even better than modern Citroens offerings supposedly selling itself as "Comfort Package". Its at least the equal to Range Rover, Mercedes S class Beemer 7 Lexus LS450 and Audi Q7. A miracle of quiet cushy cloud-like ride, considering it is an entry budget model intended for the family, fleet, small tradesmen, commercial passenger and taxi segment, and using only traditional struts, shocks and steel springs and nothing in the way of electronic or computerized damping or fancy-pansy gas suspension. BYD Boleh. The M6 is the absolute nadir of conventional sprung suspension engineering miracle.As a driver I tended to have an extreme focus on suspension excellence. I am not impressed by the suspension comfort of even a full-size modern Merc but the M6 shocked me, I am trembling in disbelief bordering on fear now. The M6 is the First time I encounter such good suspension and it's almost like a religious experience. The last time I felt like this was when I first experienced the Citroen CX, which I owned three in succession. This level of softness should not have been possible with non-gas non-hydraulic suspension just using springs and normal shocks. And it's sooo quiet. The insulation from road noise is superior to Mercedes, Audi, Lexus, Jaguar, Aion, Avatr, etc. only those top tier limos using active noise cancellation is better. The BYD M6 sails over the highway like an Olympian god astride clouds. In comparison even the Mercedes GLB is as crude as a tractor. The M6 comfort is god-Tier. And considering it is non-gas non-hydraulic, it is a Miracle god-Tier Wonder It's a revelation to realize that, conversely, how badly made and over-priced are expensive prestige brands when compared with a humble base-model in the BYD catalog. I am awestruck speechless.

Bought this car about two months ago. Moved on from Honda Shuttle.Good family 7-seater. Last two seats are reasonably-sized.Ride was comfortable and features (ACC, ICC, BSM, ventilated seats) were generous for such pricing. Quiet, comfortable drive with smooth pick-up. Air-con vents for all three rows was a major plus point for ride comfort.I am OK with the analogue dashboard. It does appear odd in an EV car but the central digital panel provides enough information.There is a bit of body-roll even if you are not driving at high speeds.Mileage so far is close to 400++ but full charge as I do not go drive at high speeds.For those who is looking for a 7-seater, this car is worth a serious consideration.

Spent almost a week living with the M6 and I've come away with my mind changed on what a family mover should and could be. It looks just like a normal car which is a comfortable change for someone who's driven gasoline cars all his life.The power delivery was smooth and subtle with no rude EV accelerations I've felt in other cars. There are 3 different driving modes to suit each driver so my wife gets her chance at driving it the way she likes as well. You get the EV conveniences and even the very useful cruise control, which has made my drives up to Malaysia so much more pleasant. Space is good for a 7-seater, and the aircon vents in the 2nd row side ceiling are great for those sitting in the back rows. All in, a pretty decent package for anyone nervous about getting a family mover that's an EV.

Verdict
After taking the Singapore market by storm in 2024, BYD has persisted in ruling our roads across 2025, marking milestone after milestone, month after month.

And while the evergreen Atto 3 continues to find new homes with buyers looking for competent and competitively-priced electric crossover, it was another member of the family that it ceded the honour of our Top Viewed Model to for 2025: The BYD M6.

Understanding the M6's appeal doesn't require the intelligence of a quantum physicist.

Compact MPVs enjoy interminable favour amongst Singaporean families who aren't willing, or don't necessarily want to shell out money for something full-sized. Simultaneously, consumer sentiment towards electric vehicles has only grown warmer over the past year. The M6 deftly ticks both boxes as the only model on the market still to occupy the compact electric MPV space.

It effectively undercuts, or goes toe-to-toe against more established hybrid names from Japan in price. But unlike them, it's able to serve up the joys of full electrification (smoother drives, lower running costs), while also trading in BYD's unrivalled ability to offer premium features you wouldn't have expected in a mass-market family car five years ago. There's no doubt that those ventilated front seats have brought relief to many M6 drivers and their shotgun passengers on sweltering days this year.

As the tide increasingly shifts electric in Singapore, you'll note that that attention - and success – tend to follow the brands that demonstrate the keenest awareness of what buyers in the market are on the hunt for. The M6, as a thoroughly competent electric seven-seater, certainly speaks to a huge demographic here: One that comprises families seeking out three rows of seats, but who are also curious about full electrification, and who prioritise value and versatility.

It's no wonder, then, that it's become Sgcarmart's Top Viewed Model of 2025. In the absence of direct rivals still, don't be surprised to see it continue attracting clicks and eyeballs.
