BYD has officially confirmed the launch of its much-awaited pickup truck, the BYD Shark 6. This plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is set to make a big impact on the local market. The company shared a sneak peek on Instagram, showing the truck in action with the simple caption: “COMING SOON.”
The Shark 6 made its first big appearance at the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Opening Ceremony, getting a lot of attention during one of the country’s biggest sporting events.
What We Know So Far
The BYD Shark 6 is a dual-cab pickup truck that mixes tough performance with hybrid fuel efficiency. While the full specifications for the Pakistan model haven’t been revealed yet, international versions suggest that it’s built to be both practical and eco-friendly. Some expected features include:
- A plug-in hybrid powertrain that lets you drive short distances using only electricity, while longer trips are powered by petrol.
- A modern exterior with a wide stance and a bold, aggressive front grille.
- A tech-savvy interior that could include a large touchscreen infotainment system, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), and smart connectivity options.
Pickup trucks are popular in Pakistan for their strength and flexibility, but the Shark 6 brings something different: an electric-powered option that still delivers strong performance. If it’s priced right, it could challenge the dominance of traditional diesel pickups in the local market.
What’s Next?
BYD Pakistan hasn’t shared an official release date or pricing yet, but with the teaser campaign and the attention it got during the PSL, it’s clear that the Shark 6 is coming soon. We can expect more details to be revealed in the near future.
