BYD's Fangchengbao launches plug-in hybrid with advanced autonomous driving features

BEIJING, Feb 21 (Reuters) - Chinese electric vehicle maker BYD's 002594.SZ, 1211.HK off-road brand Fangchengbao on Friday launched smart versions of its plug-in hybrid SUV Bao 5.

The Bao 5, packing BYD's proprietary "God's Eye" advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS), is priced from 239,800 yuan ($33,082). Another version featuring Huawei's Qiankun ADAS goes for a starting price at 284,800 yuan.

Last week, BYD introduced 21 models equipped with its God's Eye system under its best-selling Ocean and Dynasty series, in a move analysts said is set to start a new price war.
