Context

We explored how BYD and Blue can extend each other's ecosystems, creating a connected driver journey that goes beyond the car. The focus is not only on eco-driving and convenience, but also on building a community through the BYD Car Owner Club inside Blue.

BYD Hub in the Blue app

  • Drivers access BYD features directly in Blue
  • Personalised trip reports and eco-achievements motivate people beyond driving
  • The BYD Car Owner Club is a central space to share achievements, exchange tips and earn rewards, strengthening brand loyalty and peer engagement

What I did

I led the experience definition and concepts:

  • Ecosystem mapping and opportunity framing
  • Before the showroom: smart booking and a personalised welcome
  • In the showroom: AR car exploration, a gamified walkthrough and instant Blue sign-up
  • After the visit: the BYD Car Owner Club, trip reports, eco-achievements and follow-up nudges
  • In-car OS: route overlays for chargers and partner merchants, and automatic rewards
  • A smart data layer so dealers see customer preferences
