00:00 We're in Ireland to find out why electric cars are surging. Here's Bernard Byrne from BYD who's

00:06 going to give us a test drive in this amazing piece of machinery today. Let's get in. Yeah Ken,

00:12 so in Ireland we have two specs. We have the design and the excellence. Both have an 82.5

00:19 kilowatt battery which will allow you on the excellence to get 520 kilometers of range

00:24 and the design will actually give you 570 kilometers of range. There's a 15.6 inch screen

00:31 which has a little party trick that turns. So we love that. So it goes the portrait style.

00:37 So Bernard's been nice enough to let me drive this time and I gotta say

00:41 it's a dream on the road. Smooth, quiet and look at all the cool features it has. Listen to this.

00:47 Hi BYD. Turn on seat heating. Got it. I'll turn on seat heating.
