BYD YangWang U9 Electric Supercar’s Brakes Glow Like Lava In Track Test

While many of us grew up dreaming of owning a high-revving Ferrari or Porsche, future supercar dreamers might aspire to own machines that don’t run on gas and are built on the other side of the world. Brands like BYD’s Yangwang and GAC’s Hyper are poised to deliver their first super sports cars and this video of the YangWang U9 in action shows they’re taking the testing process seriously.

And considering the U9’s quad-motor setup borrowed from the U8 SUV generates 1,069 hp and the complete car probably weighs well over 4,400 lbs , it’s no surprise that the brakes are working so hard. YangWang says it can accelerate from zero to 62 mph in 2.0 seconds, which makes it a tenth slower than its far more expensive Hyper SSR rival, but far faster than any European sports car available at tis price point.
