BYD has apologized for a mix-up in the assembly of its Great Tang electric SUV, where some vehicles had their front and rear wheel rims installed backwards. The issue was traced to a supplier in Hubei, and BYD has since corrected the system and introduced additional visual inspections. The Great Tang, which has sold over 150,000 units since its launch, is available in both pure electric and plug-in hybrid versions, with the Flagship EV trim offering up to 590 miles of range. GWM Australia has announced the upcoming release of the Ora 5 Plus EV, a mid-size electric SUV set to debut in the first quarter of 2027. The Ora 5 Plus, which is almost 300mm longer than the existing Ora 5, will be available exclusively as an EV in Australia, with a starting price expected to be under $40,000.
