The BYD Yuan Plus EV is now available in Costa Rica and will retain its name. Previously, when this electric SUV became available in Australia and Singapore, it had to adopt a different name. But with Costa Rica, nothing changes, and it’d retain its Chinese name.
This launch proves the brand’s expansion into more markets away from its comfort zone. Despite the change in name with different regions, the vehicle remains the same. Purchasing this SUV in Costa Rica is possible by Cori Motors, an official distributor.
