byd han 2026 uae

BYD Han Overview

The Han is a five-seat, fully electric executive sedan measuring 4,995 mm long and riding on a 2,920 mm wheelbase. Its proportions give it a broad road presence and provide useful passenger space, particularly for rear occupants.

Its appeal extends beyond straight-line speed. Depending on specification, equipment includes a rotating central display, digital instruments, advanced driver-assistance systems, a 360-degree camera, connected services and extensive comfort features.

Which BYD Han Variants Are Available in the UAE?

The official UAE specification brochure compares Premium and Platinum versions. However, the current BYD UAE retail page specifically promotes the Han Platinum and displays its official retail price.

Buyers should confirm live availability before visiting a showroom. Variant supply, model-year descriptions and promotional pricing can change without the technical brochure being updated at the same time.

Performance and Electric Powertrains

BYD Han Premium

The Premium uses a front-mounted electric motor and front-wheel drive. Its maximum output is 180 kW, equivalent to approximately 241 hp, with 350 Nm of torque.

It completes the 0–100 km/h run in 7.9 seconds. Rather than targeting maximum acceleration, this version prioritises range and lower energy consumption.

BYD Han Platinum

The Platinum adds a second electric motor and full-time all-wheel drive. Combined output rises to 380 kW, approximately 509 hp, while peak torque reaches 700 Nm.

Acceleration from 0–100 km/h takes 3.9 seconds and top speed is listed at 180 km/h. The Platinum specification also includes electronically controlled DiSus-C active suspension and front Brembo brake calipers.

Blade Battery, Range and Charging

Both versions use an 85.4 kWh BYD Blade Battery with lithium iron phosphate chemistry. LFP batteries are widely associated with thermal stability, durability and the ability to tolerate repeated charging cycles.

The Premium is rated for 565 km under the WLTP test cycle. The more powerful and heavier Platinum is rated for 521 km.

Charging Specification

• Up to 11 kW AC charging.
• Up to 120 kW DC fast charging.
• EU Combo 2 charging connection in the UAE brochure.
• Vehicle-to-load power output for compatible external devices.
• Scheduled charging through the vehicle’s systems.

Home charging will usually provide the most convenient ownership experience. Drivers relying mainly on public networks should consider charger location, pricing, availability and the time required during busy periods.

BYD Han Premium vs Platinum

Exterior Design and Dimensions

The Han uses a low, streamlined profile with slim LED lighting, flush door handles and a fast roofline. Its 1,910 mm width and long wheelbase help it look substantial without relying on an oversized grille or excessive exterior detailing.

The 125 mm laden ground clearance is typical of a low executive sedan, but it deserves attention around steep parking entrances, high kerbs and aggressive speed humps.

Interior Comfort and Technology

The cabin combines a 12.3-inch digital instrument display with a rotating infotainment screen, wireless phone charging, automatic climate control, rear air vents and an air-purification system.

Platinum specification brings the larger 15.6-inch display, upgraded upholstery, a 12-speaker Dynaudio audio system, additional heating and ventilation functions and a rear central-armrest control screen.

Connectivity equipment includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, voice commands and over-the-air software capability, subject to the services activated for the local vehicle.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Systems

The Han combines conventional occupant protection with a broad suite of electronic driver-assistance systems. Exact availability depends on the selected trim.

• Front, side, curtain and driver-knee airbags.
• 360-degree surround-view camera.
• Front and rear parking sensors.
• Tyre-pressure monitoring.
• Traction and electronic stability control.
• Anti-lock braking system.
• Forward-collision warning.
• Automatic emergency braking.
• Adaptive and intelligent cruise control.
• Lane-departure warning and lane assistance.

Platinum adds features including blind-spot detection, door-open warning, rear-collision warning, a head-up display, lane-centring control and lane-change assistance according to the official UAE specification sheet.

Living With a BYD Han in the UAE

For drivers with access to home or workplace charging, the Han’s 500-kilometre-plus published range can make daily electric-car ownership straightforward.

Dubai continues to expand its public EV charging network, while Abu Dhabi is developing the Charge AD system across Abu Dhabi Island, Al Ain and Al Dhafra.

Long journeys still require realistic planning. High-speed motorway travel between Ajman, Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi can consume considerably more energy than slower urban driving, especially during the hottest months when the climate-control system is working continuously.

Points to Confirm Before Buying an EV

• Whether a home charger can be installed at your property.
• Charging-port compatibility with UAE public networks.
• Battery and electric-motor warranty terms.
• Availability of trained high-voltage service facilities.
• Realistic range for your regular route.
• Insurance, tyre and repair costs.

2026 BYD Han Price in the UAE

At the time this guide was reviewed, the official BYD UAE website listed the BYD Han Platinum at AED 231,900 including VAT.

The site also displayed an indicative monthly payment of AED 3,633, calculated using a 20% deposit, 60 instalments and the prevailing market interest rate. Actual finance approval, profit rate and monthly payment will depend on the buyer and lender.

Prices advertised by independent dealers in Dubai, Sharjah or the Ajman car market may differ substantially because some vehicles are Chinese imports, older production years or cars supplied without the same local distributor warranty.
