This innovative vehicle promises to revolutionize the local market by combining the practicality of a traditional utility vehicle with the benefits of modern hybrid technology.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cimex Inc., the authorized distributor of BYD vehicles in Nepal, has showcased this innovative model during the recent BYD Hi-Tech Week, signaling its potential entry into the Nepali market.</span></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; padding: 3.75pt 0pt 3.75pt 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cimex Inc., the official distributor of BYD vehicles in Nepal, has confirmed plans to introduce the Shark 6, a vehicle that stands out with its plug-in hybrid powertrain and robust design. While Nepal has seen various hybrids and off-road vehicles before, none quite like the Shark 6 exist. This pickup truck integrates rugged utility with advanced technology, making it a compelling choice for both work and adventure.</span></p>
<h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; padding: 3.75pt 0pt 3.75pt 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 13.999999999999998pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">An Overview of Plug-in Hybrid Technology</span></h2>
<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 10pt; padding: 3.75pt 0pt 3.75pt 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To understand the Shark 6 fully, it's essential to delve into its hybrid technology. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) offer significant advantages over traditional hybrids. While conventional hybrids rely on regenerative braking and their internal combustion engine to recharge, PHEVs come equipped with a dedicated charging port, allowing for external charging akin to that of fully electric vehicles. This combines the best of both worlds: the instant torque provided by electric motors and the long-range capability of gasoline engines.</span></p>

This configuration enables the pickup to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.7 seconds, with a top speed of 160 km/h. The 29.58 kWh Blade battery offers an electric-only range of up to 100 km, while the combined petrol and electric range extends to approximately 800 km, providing both performance and efficiency.</span></p>
