BYD’s low-cost Seagull EV now starts at under $8,000 in China
Later this year, it will launch in Europe as the Dolphin Surf, with expected prices starting under £20,000 ($26,000)
I wonder how large of a profit margin is BYD making in Europe.

Isn't the 4680 just the shape of the battery? I guess the disadvantage is that it is round and harder to assemble into a pack unlike prismatic batteries.
IMO current lithium iron phosphate tech is better suited for most consumers compared to the nickel manganese cobalt based 4680 Tesla uses.
