Car Profiles - BYD F5

BYD F5

Noted for its self driving technology, the F5 has gadgetry which shames cars costing more. Engine is a direct injection turbo mated to a dual clutch transmission, which makes things interesting. It may be something nice but better wait before committing.

The Good: Advanced remote driving system
The Bad: The problem when the car breaks down

Price Range: P1,288,000
