    Fangchengbao Bao 5 price cut triggers owner protests; recall requires major teardown repairs

    In 2024, the Fangchengbao Bao 5 was cut in price by RMB 50,000; existing owners held banners to defend their rights and it topped complaint lists; owners also questioned fuel consumption and range claims. In January 2025, Fangchengbao recalled the Bao 5's core electronic control components, requiring dismantling of the body and chassis for replacement, and owners were dissatisfied with the repair process and compensation. BYD sued a blogger who posted an "18-liter fuel consumption" video, and the court ordered the blogger to pay RMB 2.01 million. Brand reputation was affected.
