Why the BYD SONG PLUS Is the Perfect SUV for the Middle East

In the Middle East, choosing a family SUV is more than just power and space — it’s about how well the car adapts to your lifestyle, whether that’s commuting in the city, driving long highways, or enjoying weekends outdoors.

Let’s look at how this SUV redefines daily convenience and family leisure.

Beat the Heat with Remote Vehicle Control

In Saudi Arabia and the UAE, summer heat can make stepping into a parked car unbearable, with cabin temperatures easily exceeding 50°C. While many SUVs only offer basic cooling, the Song PLUS gives you remote climate control via smartphone.

Imagine this: 10 minutes before leaving the office, you switch on the AC and set it to 25°C. By the time you step into your car, the cabin feels like your living room — no scorching seats, no burning steering wheel. It’s a small detail, but one that transforms summer driving comfort.

Voice Assistant in English: Made for Local Drivers

Unlike many imported cars that struggle with voice recognition, the Song PLUS has been localized for English commands with impressive accuracy — even with regional accents.

Say: “Hi Egypt BYDUAE BYDKSA BYDOman BYDBahrain BYDQatar BYDKuwait BYD, open seat ventilation” and the cooling starts instantly — even with a Middle Eastern accent. No fumbling for buttons, no distractions on highways. Beyond climate control, the voice system manages navigation, music, the sunroof, and more — all hands-free.

This is where BYD shows it understands local needs: safety, convenience, and personalization, not just generic features.

Stress-Free Highway Driving with Lane-Keeping Assist

Middle Eastern drivers often spend hours on highways, whether between Riyadh and Jeddah or Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Long drives can be exhausting, but the Song PLUS’s lane-keeping assist makes the journey smoother and safer.

On UAE highways, the system kept the car neatly centered, with smooth steering adjustments. For long trips, this means less stress, fewer corrections, and a more relaxing drive. It’s not full autopilot — but it’s the kind of assistance that makes a real difference in daily use.

Wireless Charging: Simple, Clean, Reliable

Life here revolves around smartphones — from navigation to payments. With the Song PLUS, charging is seamless: just place your phone on the pad, and it charges without messy cables.

Both iPhone and Android devices charge stably with minimal heating. Whether it’s a daily commute or a long intercity trip, you’ll always arrive with a fully charged phone. Plus, the cabin stays clean and organized, unlike many SUVs that still rely on cluttered USB setups.

Power Up Your Adventures: Vehicle-to-Load (V2L)

Camping is a cherished tradition in the Middle East, and the Song PLUS takes it to the next level with 3.3kW external power output.

We tested it in Dubai: an induction cooker grilled steak, coffee brewed fresh, and laptops and speakers stayed powered — all without interruption. It’s modern comfort in the great outdoors, with a smart battery safeguard ensuring enough charge to get back to the city.

This is not just an SUV feature — it’s a lifestyle upgrade that few competitors can match.

The Smart Choice for Middle Eastern Families

The BYD Song PLUS is more than an SUV — it’s a lifestyle upgrade. From beating the summer heat and powering desert camping trips to keeping families safe and comfortable on long drives, it’s designed with Middle Eastern needs in mind.

And here’s the best part: compared to traditional Japanese or Western SUVs, the Song PLUS offers this level of technology and convenience at a far more competitive price. That means you get premium features without paying a premium price.

For families in the Middle East, the BYD Song PLUS isn’t just an option — it’s the smart choice.
