BYD Racco
The BYD Racco (Japanese: BYDラッコ, Hepburn: BYD Rakko; lit. 'sea otter') is a battery electric kei car manufactured by BYD Auto in 2026 for the Japanese market. It is the carmaker's attempt to making an electric kei car for the Japanese market and also the first and only one dedicated pure kei car model from a non-Japanese brand. It was revealed at the 2025 Japan Mobility Show, and has been made in China for export to Japan since July 2026. While designed as a tall-roof kei car with sliding doors, mimicking the body styles of petrol-powered competitors such as the Honda N-Box, Daihatsu Tanto and Nissan Roox, the Racco competes with existing battery electric kei cars such as the Honda N-One e, Mitsubishi eK X EV, and Nissan Sakura.
