MUSCAT: In an extraordinary evening celebrating innovation, sustainability and technological excellence, World Auto Business, the distributor of BYD vehicles in Oman, unveiled the much-anticipated BYD Shark 6, Oman’s first DMO- Plug-in Hybrid pickup at a grand event held at the Sheraton Oman Hotel, Muscat. The gathering brought together distinguished guests, esteemed partners and automotive enthusiasts from across Oman, making it a truly remarkable occasion.

This launch was not merely the introduction of a vehicle; it marked a transformative milestone in Oman’s automotive landscape, heralding a new era of mobility defined by power, intelligence and sustainability.
The evening commenced with a welcome address from a World Auto Business spokesperson.

The speech highlighted that the Shark 6 is far more than a vehicle, it is a symbol of progress, purpose and the future of mobility in Oman. It emphasised that the Shark 6 is engineered for every terrain and every journey, combining strength, performance and environmental consciousness. It is a vehicle for those who refuse to compromise between power and sustainability, offering a driving experience that exudes agility,
confidence and dominance.

The BYD Shark 6 exemplifies the perfect harmony of performance, intelligence and eco- responsibility, redefining expectations of what a pickup can achieve. Later in the evening, the BYD Oman team shared insightful presentations highlighting the technological marvels of the Shark 6. They spoke of BYD’s record-breaking U9 Xtreme supercar, which achieved a world-record top speed of 496.22 km/h earlier this year and showcased how the same spirit of engineering excellence, innovation and sustainability has
been seamlessly infused into the Shark 6.

They highlighted how BYD’s global expertise in high-performance electric vehicles, DMO- Plug-in Hybrid technology and sustainable innovations has shaped the Shark 6, ensuring that customers in Oman benefit from the very latest in advanced mobility solutions.

At the heart of the Shark 6 lies BYD’s revolutionary DMO Super Plug-in Hybrid Off-Road Platform, featuring Dual Mode (DM) DMO technology and the world-renowned Blade Battery. This state-of-the-art platform delivers instant torque, exceptional efficiency and superior control, enabling the Shark 6 to master Oman’s diverse terrains, from rugged mountains and sweeping deserts to urban streets, without compromise. Equipped with dual-motor AWD, intelligent all-wheel drive, multiple terrain modes and a reinforced body- on-frame construction with high-strength steel, the vehicle combines rugged durability with sophisticated engineering. Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology further enhances its versatility,
allowing external devices to be powered directly from the vehicle.

The Shark 6 is as striking as it is capable. Its shark-inspired exterior design, futuristic Floating
Cockpit interior and elegant palette of colours such as Snowy White, Deep Black, Atlantis
Grey and Grey Green, showcase a blend of style, strength and modernity. Beyond aesthetics
and performance, the Shark 6 embodies BYD’s commitment to sustainability and eco- conscious driving, bringing Oman into the global movement toward a greener, cleaner
future.

Practicality is equally impressive. The Shark 6 offers a 1,200-liter cargo bed, a payload of 790
kg, towing capacity of 2,500 kg with trailer brakes and 750 kg without trailer brakes. With
430 hp, it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.7 seconds, delivering the performance of
a traditional 4.0L V8 engine while maintaining the efficiency of a DMO- Plug-in Hybrid.
Guests had the opportunity to experience the Shark 6 first-hand, discovering its intelligent
features, exceptional comfort and remarkable versatility.

The BYD Shark 6 is now available in Oman at an introductory price of OMR 15,999 (exclusive
of VAT) for a limited period of one month. Customers are invited to explore the full range of
BYD electric and Plug-in Hybrid vehicles at the state-of-the-art showrooms and experience
