On January 18, some netizens exposed a group of spy photos of a suspected BYD mid-size SUV, which may be the upcoming Cruiser 05, which is also a mass-produced version of BYD's X-DREAM concept car. In addition to the Dynasty series at hand, BYD is also committed to promoting the product layout of the marine and warship series.
From the outside, the shape of this cruiser 05 is indeed very close to BYD's X-DREAM concept car, and the front face has an oversized grille. The headlights and the middle net have not yet been installed, and the specific style is not yet known, but Xiao Lei can be sure that the vehicle details of the cruiser 05 are not much different from the destroyer 05 that has been released.
Of course, the temperament of the new car is not a small gap compared with the concept car, but the appearance can still be guaranteed, compared with the simplicity of the Dynasty series "Dragon Face", the warship series has more three-dimensional line shaping. Xiao Lei speculated that the positioning of the cruiser 05 would be between Song PLUS and Tang, and the price may also be a major highlight.
As a medium-sized SUV, the BYD Destroyer 05 is pleasing enough in size with 2900 mm of torque. The area behind the C-pillar is larger than the X-DREAM, meaning that the Destroyer 05 will have a 7-seat version. It should be noted that the 7-seat medium-sized SUV, the last row seat is generally very small, usually basically will not be used, after unfolding is only suitable for short distances and small children to ride, otherwise the comfort can be basically ignored.
Cruiser 05 will have three power versions, the main is still the current explosive DM-i hybrid system, consisting of a 1.5L high-efficiency engine for Xiaoyun-plug hybrid, an EHS electric hybrid system and a dm-i special power blade battery, with a maximum engine power of 81kW. In addition, the EHS electromix system is also available in two versions, the main difference is in the power, which should be used to distinguish between high and low configurations. As for the endurance part, it is estimated that there must be more than 800 kilometers.
At present, it seems that the BYD warship series already has two generals, according to the company's product plan, there will be a MPV model called "landing ship" in the follow-up, which should be built for relatively young consumer groups, with fuel saving, high value, large space and other characteristics, I believe that after the sale will bring higher sales results to BYD.
The hot sales of new cars mean that BYD blade batteries and related parts supply put forward higher requirements, and the speed of delivery of new cars may have an impact. Now the demand for DM-i models is very high, BYD officials also said that it is stepping up production, hoping that after the cruiser 05 is released, consumers will not have to wait too long to pick up the car.
