XYZ Racing Top Sport Coilovers — BYD YUAN PLUS 2022-2026

The Byd 元 YUAN PLUS carries a battery pack low and central, which is good for cornering grip on paper but punishing on factory dampers that were never tuned for the extra mass. Push the YUAN PLUS hard through a sequence of UK B-road compressions and the standard suspension runs out of vertical travel and composure long before the tyres do. The XYZ Racing Top Sport coilover is the answer for owners who have started taking this BY06-platform crossover to track days and want a setup that holds up when the road stops being polite.

This is a fast-road plus occasional-circuit kit, not a stripped-out race-only setup. Damping sits roughly 30-50% firmer than street, with spring rates lifted around 2 kg/mm over the OEM brief – enough to control the BYD’s kerb weight without turning a 2022-2026 daily into a kidney-rattler.

What this coilover does for your 2022-2026 Byd 元 YUAN PLUS

The added damping force keeps the YUAN PLUS’s heavy sprung mass settled when you hit broken tarmac at speed, which is where the factory shocks give up first. The stiffer springs reduce the body roll that makes an EV-crossover feel like it’s loading the outside tyre into the sidewall mid-corner, and the firmer rebound stops the rear from porpoising after a compression. Across a track session you get a flatter platform, sharper turn-in, and tyres that stay planted long enough for the regen and the friction brakes to actually do their job into a hairpin. Ride height is adjustable, so you can drop the YUAN PLUS to a stance that suits a UK fast road without compromising the geometry the battery floor relies on.

About the Top Sport coilover

The Top Sport sits in XYZ Racing’s catalogue as the bridge between street and full circuit hardware. The spring rates are pitched roughly 2 kg/mm above a street setup and the damping is wound up by 30-50%, the figures XYZ landed on after testing on their own track programmes. The brief is uneven-surface compliance – soaking up big single hits and rough sections without losing body control – paired with the suppression needed for aggressive driving. The geometry of the damper internals is set up to absorb a sharp impact, then settle the chassis quickly so traction comes back at the contact patch rather than chasing the body. Construction follows XYZ’s standard Top Sport spec, and the calibration is drawn directly from their racing experience rather than scaled down from a road-comfort starting point.
