BYD launched the Shark, its first pickup in the UK and across Europe, priced from about $63,000, with 56 miles of pure-electric range. Powered by its Super Hybrid plug-in powertrain, BYD claims the Shark “brings performance far in advance of what can be achieved by traditional diesel pickups.”

Kia is trading in its flagship sedan after 14 years to focus on smaller, more affordable electric vehicles.
