Prior to its introduction, the petrol-powered first-generation Song was planned to be marketed as the BYD S3, similar to the petrol powered F3 compact sedan and S6 mid-size crossover, which for its hybrid variants were renamed to the Qin and Tang using the Chinese dynasty naming system. However, BYD reversed course shortly before its launch, and S3 was named the Song for all variants including the ICE engined version, plug-in hybrid version, and electric versions.
