This product is professionally designed for BYD’s professional personalized brand—the Formula Leopard 5, the brand’s first model, serving as a core access assist component installed at the rear or side of the vehicle, designed to help users safely access the roof platform for loading luggage or setting up equipment.

As a professional manufacturing factory specializing in automotive exterior parts and outdoor equipment, our roof foldable side ladder assembly strictly follows OE specifications, dedicated to providing the global aftermarket with high-strength, lightweight, high-reliability replacement and upgrade solutions.

The roof foldable side ladder is a core component of the Formula Leopard 5’s “Crossing Matrix” and “Camping Matrix” modification themes. At the 2024 Shenzhen Modification Expo, the modified Bao 5 with a folding ladder drew significant attention—owners reported that the ladder “doesn’t affect aesthetics, makes it easy to step on the tire for leverage, and even gives a tough-guy feel”. This product works with roof platforms to unlock diverse outdoor scenarios including camping, overlanding, and long-distance travel.

Compatible with all BYD Formula Leopard 5 trims (including Explorer/Navigator/YunNian/Smart Driving versions). According to vehicle data, the Formula Leopard 5 measures 4890×1970×1920mm with a wheelbase of 2800mm, approach angle of 35° and departure angle of 32°. This product features vehicle-specific design with OEM hole non-destructive installation that can be completed by one person.
