So clearly, the Ad works brilliantly...

When a dyslexic tries to help a dyslexic.

>I think op is taking a stab at that the range set by the manufacturer is based on optimum operating conditions. Clear typo actually

That_Car_Dude_Aus 2026-03-18 09:03

Typo

Well, well damn I feel silly.

MesozOwen 2026-03-18 09:10

I feel like this is intentional. We’re all staring at an ad on reddit. It’ll be all over Facebook too. It’s exactly what they want.

-Davo 2026-03-18 09:13

I see it now lmao

OGHaze_One 2026-03-18 09:21

That’s adventure in French

The shark uses petrol to charge the battery. It has a very high claimed range with both battery and fuel. Much better than my diesel Ute. And yes typo.

Never trust a Grphic Desgners spelling. Source Graphic Designer

hifiplus 2026-03-18 09:47

I'm hnugry for andventrue too!

saynoto30fps 2026-03-18 09:48

So now we will be flooded with ads that include intentional grammar mistakes. Great.

Safar1Man 2026-03-18 09:54

Get bogged in record time with your new 3 ton ute

TheRamblingPeacock 2026-03-18 09:56

The levels of approval this had to go through and still get published….

I’d own one of these over the Tasman!

Steven_Bloody_Toast 2026-03-18 10:10

So one fuckwit ad agency manager, one overworked underpaid graphic designer, and one dude from BYD who has English is their 2nd language…

Fictitious-Fighter75 2026-03-18 10:10

it represents BYD Australia’s operations.  i also noticed BYD website, some dealer location URL points to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, with no actual address.  while the car’s are decent quality, Australian operations are largely smoke and mirrors.  currently dealing with them regarding a warranty issue for BYD Seal myself, and it’s clear how much of a cluster fuck they are.  all’s fun and games until you need genuine post sale support.

TheRamblingPeacock 2026-03-18 10:10

Sounds about right.

Significant_Owl8828 2026-03-18 10:15

What a disaster. Someone is gonna get their arse kicked at whatever advertising agency pumped that out. I spent my career doing large format ooh and bus backs etc. How does something like that get past the proofing process? Clearly there was none. 😢

No_Violinist_4557 2026-03-18 10:18

I'm seeing a huge amount of these cars on the road. 18'000 sold last year, the same as the Triton which is pretty impressive.

Dear_Potato6525 2026-03-18 10:25

The word "adventure" on the back of the bus is misspelt as "advenutre"

uberphat 2026-03-18 10:55

Thanks. The harder I looked, the more stupid I felt.

Potential-Tone9606 2026-03-18 10:57

Wouldn't be Chinese without a spelling mistake. I'd love to see the owners manual.

The marketing people who gave the brief, the graphic designer who created the ad, the marketing people who subsequently signed off on the artwork.

ewan82 2026-03-18 22:12

Yeah - there is a vibe of general incompetence.

Literally tunnel vision looking at the same design for a whole day, always need the 2nd pair of eyes to notice the obvious spelling mistake
