Oh hmmm okay thanks, I didn't know that. I've read that BYD requires it's own SIM card when communicating with things like their app and software updates. For example, my BYD app does not work when my car is connecting to any Wi-Fi, as soon as I disconnect Wi-Fi the app works fine. I only have the car for 4 weeks now so I haven't been able to test OTA yet, but I assumed that would be the same because BYD only allows communication to their systems over their own network.
Have you already tried turning it off and download the update over their SIM card? If so, I would suggest a reboot like another commenter did, it should not affect the download/brick the car.
