The BYD M3 DM mini MPV was previewed by the M3 DM Concept during the 2014 Beijing Auto Show, with the DM meaning Dual-Mode for hybrid drivetrain BYD models. ^[2] The internal combustion version is the BYD M3 which features the same design with traditional grilles. MSRP starts from around 75,000 yuan.^[3]

The BYD T3 is a pure-electric mini van launched by BYD at the 2015 Shanghai Auto Show. The BYD T3 is the electric version of the BYD M3 light commercial vehicle. It was never actually made available to the market, but Chinese government officials such as post offices were able to acquire fleets to be used as state-financed vehicles. The T3 name was originally used on a truck or commercial van version of the BYD e6 prototype. ^[4] However the vehicle that was finally released wearing the BYD T3 nameplate shares the platform with the BYD M3. ^[5]
