The 2017 BYD e6 for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2017 BYD e6 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page puts the 2017 BYD e6 in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
A buyer's checks
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Reading the spec sheet
Its powertrain is the electric motor with front-wheel drive. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Its rating is 29.2 kWh/100 km: about 88 kWh for 300 km. The EPA rates its range at 301 km. Winter cold and fast highway driving cut that down. Expect about $4.38 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$1,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Living with the e6
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy. In plain terms, its 453 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who rents the e6
Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the e6 for a week and see how it fits your life. A week with the e6 answers more than any brochure. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Running costs
Charging at home usually costs less than public fast charging. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $43.80 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Your move
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
