The Fangchengbao Ti7 (Chinese: 方程豹 钛7; lit. 'Formula leopard Titanium 7') is a plug-in hybrid full-size SUV manufactured by BYD Auto under the Fangchengbao brand. It is the second vehicle under the "Ti"/"Tai" series of the Fangchengbao brand.
Overview
The Ti7 is a large, plug-in hybrid SUV with styling cues taken from the Fangchengbao Bao 5. The name was revealed in June 2025.[2] Specifications were released by the MIIT not long after.
Production of the Ti7 started on August 11, 2025.[3] The first model was painted in a silver-blue color and was included with a roof-mounted LiDAR sensor. The Ti7 will launch in the 4th quarter of 2025.[4]
Design
The Ti7 uses a high bonnet line, a boxy form factor (similar to that of the Bao 5), a small grille, large bumpers, rectangular headlights, and a swing-out tailgate with a storage box.[5]
Carscoops has stated that the Ti7's design bears resemblance to the L663 Land Rover Defender.[6]
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.[7]
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.[8]
It was not specified if the rear-motor-only version is all-wheel-drive.
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) with the total range yet to be determined.
