Looking for a brand new BYD Ti 7? BYD's first seven-seat SUV for the UK arrives in one fully equipped Excellence AWD specification, so you get the flagship kit as standard on every car. Its DM-p Super Hybrid powertrain pairs a turbocharged petrol engine with electric drive on both axles for 408PS and all-wheel drive, yet still covers up to 74 miles on electric power alone. With three rows of seats, a 15.6-inch touchscreen and a spacious cabin, the Ti 7 gives families space, performance and plug-in efficiency in one car. Explore the full BYD range of new Ti 7 deals from Vertu below.
The BYD Ti 7 is BYD's first seven-seat SUV for the UK, a BYD plug-in hybrid family car that arrives in a single, generously equipped Excellence AWD specification. It marks the UK debut of BYD's DM-p Super Hybrid powertrain, so there's no options list to climb: every Ti 7 lands fully loaded.
That powertrain is what sets the Ti 7 apart from the rest of the seven-seat class. Its three-motor DM-p system combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with electric drive on both axles, producing 408PS and covering 0-62mph in 4.8 seconds. Few seven-seaters carrying the school run can also reach 62mph quicker than many hot hatchbacks.
BYD UK (a term short for Build Your Dreams) is the world's leading maker of new energy vehicles, and the Ti 7 brings that scale to a family SUV built around a 35.6kWh Blade Battery. On a full charge it covers up to 74 miles of electric-only range (WLTP), enough for many drivers to complete the daily commute and the nursery run on battery alone, with zero tailpipe emissions.
For a household weighing up BYD cars against established mid-size rivals, the Ti 7 answers a specific question: can one car carry seven people and their kit and still feel quick? Drivers whose weekday mileage sits comfortably under 74 miles could run it as an EV most of the week, then keep the petrol engine for weekends away and longer trips.
Inside, the Ti 7 treats all three rows to kit usually reserved for cars costing far more, with leather upholstery standard in a choice of black, light grey or brown. A 15.6-inch touchscreen anchors the dashboard, with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster ahead of the driver and an 18-speaker sound system filling the spacious cabin.
Comfort carries through the whole car rather than stopping at the front. The front seats and the outer second-row seats are heated and ventilated, and three-zone climate control lets each row set its own temperature, so a child dozing in the back isn't at the mercy of the driver's settings.
Between the front seats sits the detail families notice first: an in-car refrigerator and drinks warmer, ready to keep bottles cold on a summer motorway run or a coffee warm on the school drop. Dual 50W wireless smartphone chargers top up two phones at once without a cable.
The four-way adjustable second-row seats move to suit the passenger rather than the car, and BYD quotes generous knee and headroom across all three, so the middle bench works for adults rather than only children. Fold the third-row seats when they're not needed and the Ti 7 reverts to a roomy five-seater.
The Ti 7 wears an unapologetically boxy SUV design, the upright, rugged stance that has come back into favour with family buyers. Measuring 5,146mm long, 1,995mm wide and 1,865mm tall, it has the road presence to match its seven-seat footprint.
That presence is reinforced at ground level by 20-inch alloy wheels set within chunky wheel arch extensions, with privacy glass running from the rear doors back. LED lighting features all round, and the headlights add a dynamic welcome animation that greets you on approach, while door-mirror puddle lights light your step when you reach the car after dark.
Above, a panoramic glass roof opens the cabin to the sky, and acoustic glass in the windscreen and front windows keeps road and wind noise at bay on the motorway.
Six exterior finishes make up the range: Starlight Silver, Mountain Green, Obsidian Black, Jade Green, Titanium Grey and Matte Titanium Grey. Of the six, Obsidian Black arguably suits the Ti 7's blocky surfaces best, deepening the shadows around the wheel arches and light signatures in a way the paler shades can't.
Vertu offers the Ti 7 in one specification for the UK, the flagship Excellence AWD, so the equipment below is standard on every car rather than split across a trim ladder. That single-spec approach is deliberate: BYD has fitted the Ti 7 with equipment many rivals reserve for their top trims, then sold it as one confident package.
The table sets out the headline equipment and technology fitted to the BYD Ti 7 Excellence AWD. Battery, power and range figures sit separately in the Engines and Performance section below.

The Ti 7 pairs a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with BYD's three-motor DM-p plug-in hybrid system and a 35.6kWh Blade Battery, sending drive to all four wheels. It's the first time BYD has brought its DM-p (Dual Mode performance) hybrid to the UK, and it shows in the numbers.
Combined system output reaches 408PS, enough for 0-62mph in 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 118mph. For most of the time the petrol engine works as a generator that feeds the Blade Battery and lets the electric motors do the driving, which is how a BYD SUV this size stays this brisk while still running quietly around town.
On a full battery the Ti 7 covers up to 74 miles of electric-only range on the WLTP cycle, with zero tailpipe emissions in that mode. As a BYD PHEV, it gives the flexibility of a battery and a fuel tank in one car. The table below sets out the powertrain, performance and range figures for the BYD Ti 7 Excellence AWD.

The BYD Ti 7 is a plug-in hybrid (PHEV), not a pure electric car. It combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with BYD's DM-p three-motor system and a 35.6kWh Blade Battery, so it can drive on electric power alone for up to 74 miles (WLTP) or use petrol for longer trips. That sets it apart from BYD's pure-electric models, giving you the flexibility of a battery and a fuel tank in one car.
DM-p stands for Dual Mode performance, BYD's performance-focused plug-in hybrid technology, and the Ti 7 is the first UK car to use it. A three-motor DM-p Super Hybrid system blends a turbocharged petrol engine with electric drive on both axles, and prioritises strong acceleration alongside plug-in hybrid efficiency. It sits above the efficiency-led DM-i system used by other BYD hybrids.
The BYD Ti 7 offers 126 litres of boot space with all seven seats in use, rising to 970 litres with the third row folded and up to 1,830 litres with the second and third rows folded flat. That flexibility lets the Ti 7 switch from a full seven-seat family SUV to a spacious load-carrier in moments.
The BYD Ti 7 produces a combined 408PS from its DM-p Super Hybrid system, covering 0-62mph in 4.8 seconds and reaching a top speed of 118mph. That makes it one of the quickest seven-seat family SUVs on sale, pairing genuine performance with all-wheel-drive grip in all conditions.
Yes. Every BYD 4x4 SUV, like the Ti 7, comes with all-wheel drive as standard, part of the flagship Excellence AWD specification. Electric motors drive both the front and rear axles, while the turbocharged petrol engine works mainly as a generator, giving the seven-seat SUV added traction and stability in poor weather or on looser surfaces.
The BYD Ti 7 covers up to 74 miles of electric-only range on the WLTP cycle, drawing on its 35.6kWh Blade Battery. That's enough for many drivers to complete daily commuting and local trips on battery power alone, with zero tailpipe emissions, before the petrol engine extends the range for longer journeys.
BYD backs its UK cars with a layered warranty: six years of basic vehicle cover, eight years on the battery and drive unit, and 12 years of anti-corrosion cover on the bodywork. As the Ti 7 is a new model, your local Vertu BYD dealership can confirm the exact mileage limits and current terms that apply to it.
Yes, the BYD Ti 7 is a credible alternative to boxy, upright SUVs like the Land Rover Defender, and its rugged styling invites the comparison. Both cars offer real street presence and family space, but they're aimed at slightly different drivers. The Defender leans on decades of off-road heritage and a badge with deep history. The Ti 7 answers with seven seats as standard, a 408PS plug-in hybrid powertrain and up to 74 miles of electric-only running, which makes it a compelling choice for families who want SUV presence with plug-in efficiency in one package.
