(November 27, 2018) LOS ANGELES — Chinese electric vehicle maker Byton will showcase its latest innovations at Automobility LA and the Los Angeles Auto Show 2018, including the U.S. auto show debut of the K-Byte Concept sedan. In its booth during the Los Angeles Auto Show, Byton will also offer the first consumer test rides in the M-Byte Concept SUV, a production version of which is scheduled to launch in China in late 2019 and the U.S. and Europe by 2020.

Byton hopes its presence at LA Auto Show will illustrate how the company is rapidly emerging as a leader in the electric vehicle industry and changing the future of shared mobility, even as the forces of electrification, autonomy, and connectivity alter the face of the traditional automotive industry.



Byton says its vehicles are smart devices on wheels, all featuring high-speed connectivity and the proprietary Shared Experience Display (SED), a full-dash, coast-to-coast screen that "delivers an unmatched digital user experience."

Byton aims to create a premium brand rooted in China that has a global reach. Its global headquarters and intelligent manufacturing base are located in Nanjing, China, while its North American headquarters — devoted to intelligent car experience, autonomous driving, whole vehicle integration, and other cutting-edge technologies — is based in the Silicon Valley. The company's vehicle concept and design center is in Munich, Germany.
