Thank you Nathan Delany from Mckenzies Painting Contractors for choosing BYD Nelson! Nathan was looking at changing out of his Ranger Wildtrak, wanting to make the switch to a smarter work vehicle, make good use of the EV capability for his day to day running of McKenzies Painting Contractors. Nathan loved the comfort & style of the BYD Shark 6.

Here Nathan takes delivery from BYD Nelson | The Car Company's Taylor Dowell.

BYD Customer Spotlight | Thank you to Roar and Rebecca Kristoffersen from Padelcentre.nz Nelson 🎾

From traditional utes to the BYD SHARK 6. Roar from Padel Centre Nelson had owned utes before, but wanted something that offered the same practicality while being more economical to run, modern and comfortable.

After chatting with Ben Brownie from BYD Nelson and taking the SHARK 6 for a test drive, it didn’t take long for him to fall in love with it.

Now he’s been loving every minute behind the wheel.

Hear more from Roar himself about why the BYD SHARK 6 was the right choice for him. 👇
