The BYD Auto K7 (known as the Mid-E in North America and by the model name CK6800LZEV in China) is an 8-metre, low floor, battery-electric transit bus. A demonstrator was trialed for 90 days with the Los Angeles Department of Transportation in early 2014 before being formally launched at that year's BusCon expo.
Like the larger BYD Auto K9, the K7 uses BYD's proprietary AC synchronous traction motor and iron phosphate batteries. The bus has a range of 298 kilometres and can be recharged in 2 hours.
