The China-built BYD Seagull, a compact all-electric hatchback, starts at just 69,800 yuan (or less than $10,000).

I don’t see why it would not meet US crash standards.

All BYD cars got 5 cars on Europe NCAP.

  Seagull isn’t rated on NCAP and I don’t think it’s certified for sale in EU either. Not saying it doesn’t meet but it’s not rated either.
