BYD is bringing the Shark, a plug-in hybrid pick-up, to the UK, according to Fleet News. No UK pricing or spec detail yet, but the pitch is clear: pick-up capability without the diesel BIK penalty that's made double-cabs steadily less attractive as a company vehicle. Worth watching rather than acting on for now - until BYD confirms payload, towing and tax treatment for the UK market, this is a name for the shortlist, not yet a business case.
