Your weekend mall run at SM North EDSA just got a high-tech upgrade. BYD’s Tech Tour experience is now at The Block, turning a usual stroll into a closer look at electrified driving, with hands-on ways to explore the tech, talk to BYD experts, and take vehicles out for a drive.
The Tech Tour experience runs from January 23 to 25, 2026, from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm, Friday to Sunday, so you can drop by after work, between errands, or anytime over the weekend.
And it isn’t just a static setup. The Tech Tour experience is interactive, letting you learn more about BYD’s technology up close, ask questions on the spot, and compare vehicles in person before you decide what to test drive.
The Spotlight Vehicles at The Block
This SM North EDSA stop puts three vehicles front and center, each aimed at a different kind of driver.
The Shark 6 DMO is the obvious attention grabber. It’s a pickup built for drivers who want capability without giving up everyday comfort. Seeing it up close gives you a better sense of its stance and details, but the bigger question is what it feels like to drive around the city. That’s where the test drive helps.
The Sealion 6 DM-i leans into daily practicality. It fits the routine many Metro Manila drivers live with: weekday commutes, school runs, errands, and the occasional out-of-town drive. This is also where BYD’s Super DM-i intelligent energy system makes sense in real life, since it’s designed to keep electric drive at the center of the experience while using the engine only when it adds value.
Then there’s the Seagull. It’s compact, approachable, and a solid entry point to EV ownership, especially if you’ve been curious about going electric but want something that feels easy to live with. In a place where traffic and parking are daily realities, a smaller footprint can make your routine simpler while still giving you the modern features you expect.
Test Drive the Full BYD Lineup
The display is only half the experience. At SM North EDSA, visitors can test drive the full electrified BYD lineup, not just the spotlight vehicles. That matters because the benefits of electric drive are hard to explain properly until you feel them, especially in real Metro Manila conditions. A short drive can tell you a lot about cabin calm, response from a stop, and how the vehicle fits your daily rhythm.
If you’re new to electrified vehicles, BYD product specialists are on-site to guide you through the options and help you choose test drive combinations that match how you actually use a car, not just what looks good on a spec sheet.
BYD Cafe at the Tech Tour
A BYD Tech Tour stop isn’t set up to feel rushed. The BYD Cafe gives visitors a place to pause, grab a drink, and talk through the lineup with the BYD team. It’s a good spot to ask the practical questions that come up once you’ve walked around the vehicles, like which model best fits your route, what to expect from daily charging, or which unit to try next on a test drive. Trivia: The cafe is powered by our vehicles, through Vehicle-To-Load (V2L) Technology.
BYD Tech Quest
If you want to do more than just look around, join the BYD Tech Quest, an immersive and interactive activity built into the Tech Tour experience. It’s designed to walk you through BYD vehicles, products, and technology through a series of stations you can complete at your own pace.
As you move from one station to the next, you’ll get to engage with different parts of the BYD experience, learn what each feature is for, and see how it fits into daily driving. And there’s a nice bonus. The more stations you complete, the more exclusive BYD merchandise you can claim, so you’re leaving with more than just photos and a test drive story.
Catch the Tech Tour Experience at The Block
If you’re already in SM North EDSA this weekend, it’s an easy detour with real value. Start with the three spotlight vehicles, spend a few minutes at the BYD Cafe to get your questions answered, then take a test drive so you leave with a clear sense of what fits your routine.
You’ll also get to enjoy exclusive offers available at the Tech Tour to make ownership more attainable, whether you’re upgrading soon or still narrowing down your shortlist. So don’t forget to check them out!
