TheBYD T3is a pure-electric mini van launched byBYDat the 2015Shanghai Auto Show,and is the electric version of the BYD M3 light commercial vehicle. It was never actually made available to the market, but Chinese government officials such as post offices were able to acquire fleets to be used as state-financed vehicles. The T3 name was originally used on a truck or commercial van version of theBYD e6prototype.[6]However the vehicle that was finally released wearing the BYD T3 nameplate shares the platform with the BYD M3.[7]

In China, BYD supplied T3 toDHL,which provides daily logistics in the Central Business District (CBD) of Shenzhen and surrounding areas.[8]

Outside China, BYD exported T3 to Norway,[9][10]to Australia via EVDirect[11]and to Thailand viaDKSH Thailand.DKSH Thailand is a provider of market expansion services in Asia, has partnered with Loxley Plc to trial the use of BYD's T3 100% electric van at DKSH's Bang Na distribution centre to tackle air pollution and promote zero-emission solutions.[12]
