As a small sheep enterprise of our own brand in the new energy market, BYD's market performance today can be said to be very prominent, and its sales in the new energy market reached 90,142 vehicles last month, far exceeding Wuling and Tesla, which are behind it. Of course, this is also inseparable from BYD's rich product camp in the new energy market today, such as BYD Song PLUS DM-i, Qin PLUS DM-i and other models are quite popular with consumers. Today, we will introduce an electric vehicle built by BYD in the civilian market - BYD e2.
BYD e2 is a compact sedan, there are currently 6 models on sale, the official guidance price is 8.98-144,800, the price span is slightly larger, but the vehicle positioning compared to Qin PLUS DM-i, is a lot closer to the people. Today we take the luxury type (106,800 hereinafter referred to as BYD e2) as an example to see how it is.
First of all, in terms of appearance, BYD e2 basically continues the latest family language, in addition to not using the Chinese character LOGO, the overall recognition can be said to be quite high. The front part of the car uses a design similar to the dragon face, and the rectangular net adopts a fully enclosed structure, so the dot matrix pattern is used to decorate, and the two sides are equipped with LED headlights, giving people the feeling of being more exquisite and modern.
In terms of body, BYD e2 adopts the shape design of a hatchback, the proportion is slightly compact, but the double-segment oblique upper waistline, with R16-inch specifications of blackened aluminum alloy wheels, gives people a feeling of quite sporty and fashionable. In terms of size, the bydir e2 has a length, width and height of 4240/1760/1530mm and a wheelbase of 2610mm, which is a relatively entry-level compact sedan.
In terms of the tail, the BYD e2 is a hatchback, so the design and layout is similar to the SUV model, and the middle is a penetrating design composed of headlights + light strips that are usually used by BYD models today, and the visual effect is more prominent, and it can also have a good sense of technology after being lit up at night.
In terms of interior, once you sit in the car, you can actually feel the strong BYD flavor, the center console adopts a tiled layout, the physical buttons are basically abandoned, a chrome trim strip runs through the entire center console, coupled with the configuration of the 10.1-inch suspension central control screen, which has a very simple and full of scientific and technological driving atmosphere. In terms of seats, today's BYD e2 is made of imitation leather material, and the low-end model is made of fabric material, with moderate padding and considerable comfort performance.
In terms of configuration, bydir e2 is not very rich, but the mainstream configuration of the same price point is basically equipped, such as uphill assistance, reversing radar, reversing image, fixed speed cruise and other auxiliary configurations, but also has a key start, full LCD dashboard, Internet of Vehicles, PM2.5 filtering and other functional configurations, to cope with the needs of ordinary cars, basically there is no problem.
In terms of size space, in the case of 178cm height experiencers, the internal space performance of BYD e2 is actually quite decent, the front row head space can have one punch, the back row head space is four fingers, the leg space can be left with one punch and four fingers, and the platform is raised lower, so the middle ride will not feel too uncomfortable. The groove point is that the seat cushion is slightly shorter, and there is not enough support for the legs.
In the trunk part, BYD e2 is a hatchback after all, so the practical performance is actually quite outstanding, and the conventional state can put down about 3 suitcases. In addition, the rear seats can be reclined, and practicality can be effectively improved. However, the expansion of BYD e2 is still relatively limited, because the form of the whole row is inverted, which means that the back row cannot sit people.
Finally, in terms of power, BYD e2 is driven by a single motor, which can have a total power of 70kW and a maximum torque of 180N·m. In terms of battery packs, BYD's now-famous "blade battery" is used, and safety is reliably guaranteed. In addition, the BYD e2's NEDC entry-level model has a range of 301km, and other models, including today's model, are 401km. It can be said that whether it is performance or battery life performance, BYD e2 has basically no problem in dealing with ordinary urban households.
Summary: In general, bydir e2 is an ordinary pure electric model after all, so its product performance is not as bright as the Qin PLUS DM-i and Song PLUS DM-i pillar models. Therefore, there is basically no problem in dealing with the demand for ordinary daily household and transportation, but there are actually many fuel vehicles with better quality than it in the same price market. So unless you want a new energy model, the BYD e2 still has to think twice.
