Called them up yesterday, told them I wanted a test drive, they said 'pick your time'.
Is that the car that has the huge ‘Build Your Dreams’ on the boot?Most cities have a BYD Customer experience centre(s)

Would remove them quick smart. I was behind one a few weeks ago and was scratching my head as not heard of them before. Apart from the cheesy boot badge looks the goods.

So is there a shortlist of mtb-friendly EVs that fall under the FBT cap yet?
I'd love a van, or wagon, that could bear a 5 bike rack, or possibly tow 2.5t. Is there anything near that yet?

There's a few vans out. Renault has the Kangoo Maxi, BYD the T3, LDV the e-deliver, Ford the e-transit, and Merc has the e-Vito. Nothing yet to tow 2.5t, but although the Atto 3 isn't yet complianced for it in Aus, in NZ it is rated for 750kg unbraked, so should take a 5 bike rack provided the towball weight is reasonable.

I didn't and I believe anyone who has paid a deposit and not done the online signature have also got hit with the price hike.
You can pay the $1000 deposit and join the queue, only signing when the car arrives if you want.
I would say this would be a pretty high percentage of people at this time.
Before the digital signature, you can get your $1000 deposit back at any time, no questions asked.
I'll sign mine sometime in the next month when I get the lease paperwork in place.

Impressive electrickery for off-road throttle control.
Can you drive an electric car through deep puddles? Electric submarines seem to manage.
Fun fact when our Leopard tanks were being replaced the Army did a demo for some prospective buyers which included the tanks sitting on the bottom of a lake/dam to drive out at an appointed time. The maintenance had been cut back so much the tanks leaked more than a preproduction Collins class. A mate was the tank commander and said the pumps were going so hard there was probably a waterspout in the lake.

Went down in to BYD today to sort out a premium slim numberplate for her car as its not an option on the website.
(A premium plate is not a wanky plate, its just a slimline white on black plate that looks a lot tidier and nicer than the regular fat boring SA plates)
While I was there, I asked if the April delivery date was realistic.
The bloke says I would probably get it earlier and pointed to the vehicles sitting in the showroom with the Waiting for pick up signs on the windows, these are all February delivery vehicles he said.
The Chinese don't fuck around. BYD built 230,427 new electric vehicles in November alone
Makes other vehicle suppliers look like noobs.
