The Fangchengbao Ti7 (Chinese: 方程豹 钛7; literally: 'Formula leopard Titanium 7') is a range-extended mid-size SUV manufactured by BYD Auto under the Fangchengbao brand. It is the second vehicle under the "Ti" / "Tai/钛" series of the Fangchengbao brand.

Overview

The Ti7 is a large, plug-in hybrid SUV with styling cues taken from other Fangchengbao models. The name was revealed in June 2025.[2]

Production of the Ti7 started on August 11, 2025.[3] The first Ti7 to roll off the assembly line was painted in a silver-blue color and was included with a roof-mounted LiDAR sensor.[4]

The Ti7 will launch in September 2025 with deliveries set to start the same month.[5]

A global launch of the Ti7 has not yet confirmed, but is possible as the Ti7 made its global debut at the 2025 Bangkok Motor Show in Thailand as the BYD Ti7.[6]

Design

Similar to previous Fangchengbao vehicles, the Ti7 uses a high bonnet line, a boxy form factor, angular body sculptures, large bumpers, rectangular headlights, and a swing-out tailgate with a storage box.[7]

Features

Spyshots of the Ti7 have shown a large central touchscreen in the interior alongside a column-mounted gear shifter. A LiDAR system will also come with the Ti7. The Ti7 will also come with a D-shaped four-spoke steering wheel as well as a power outlet in the back of the interior and a large sunroof.[8]

Powertrain

The Ti7 will come with options for either single-motor or dual-motor powertrains, both paired with a 1.5 liter turbocharged inline 4 producing 154 horsepower. The rear motor, which is used on all versions, codenamed TZ200XSBN, has a power output of 268 horsepower. The optional front motor, codenamed TZ210XYC, produces 215 horsepower.[9]

All versions use LFP batteries made by BYD's battery subsidiary FinDreams with lower-priced versions using the 26.6 kWh battery and higher-priced versions using the 35.5 kWh. The all-electric range goes from 100 to 130 kilometers (62 to 81 miles).

Unlike other Fangchengbao models that are plug-in hybrids, the Ti7 is an extended-range electric vehicle.[10]
