BYD's new supercar can drive with just three wheels.
A second, longer video shows the U9's suspension system pitching and rolling the car like a more subtle version of a lowrider modified for the sole purpose of this type of stunt. That, of course, concludes with the U9 jumping lightly into the air off the front axle.
While the appeal of hydraulic tricks on a roadgoing supercar is almost entirely in the charm of being able to say your car can do it, the ability to balance on three wheels is a unique safety feature with some historical precedence. Citroën DS and ID models equipped with hydraulic suspensions were famously capable of it in the 1960s, with the brand even demonstrating that the car.
Pricing and performance numbers for the Yangwang U9 are expected with the car's official unveiling next week. The sub-brand's first product, the U8 SUV, produces 1100 hp from four independent motors and retails for the equivalent of just under $150,000.
