The BYD Shark 6 is Australia's first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, slotting in between the GWM Cannon Alpha hybrid and full-electric LDV eT60 on the electrification scale. But the Shark 6 PHEV is cheaper than both so should make big waves. With a petrol engine and two electric motors on each axle providing 4WD, the BYD offers some - if not all - of its rivals' abilities, and is roomy to boot.
