Car Profiles - BYD F0

BYD F0

Weird name aside, this one is basically the cheapest car in BYD's stable. All models get power windows and airbags (base model misses it out for a reason) but long term durability is questionable for now.

The Good: Cheap
The Bad: No idea if it will hold for long

Price Range: P468,000-P628,000
Our Rating: ***
