On October 29, 2025, at the Japan Mobility Show (also known as the Tokyo Motor Show), BYD took the global stage to unveil the RACCO — a sleek, pure - electric K - Car model meticulously crafted for the Japanese market. The company has also announced its intention to commence pre - sales of this vehicle in Japan during the summer of 2026.
The RACCO strictly complies with Japan's light vehicle regulations. Its body dimensions measure 3395/1475/1800mm. Inside, it offers a practical four - seat layout and a convenient dual sliding door design. Powering this innovative vehicle is a 20kWh lithium iron phosphate battery. With this battery, the RACCO can achieve a WLTC (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Cycle) range of approximately 180km. Moreover, it supports 100kW fast charging, enabling quick and efficient recharging.
This unveiling is a significant milestone for BYD, as it represents the company's first foray into independently developing a model specifically for an overseas market. It underscores BYD's unwavering commitment to further solidifying its presence and expanding its influence in the Japanese automotive market.
