On February 17, a group of road test spy photos of BYD's new electric vehicle SEALs were recently exposed on online channels. The new car is the second mass production model of the Marine series, based on BYD's e platform 3.0. According to the previously exposed news, the seal will be officially released in the first quarter of this year.
From the appearance point of view, the new car is still covered with thick camouflage, the more obvious feature of the front is that there is a concave shape in the middle of the cover, and the headlight position on both sides is full of design, using a slender outer contour modeling design, but the inside of the lamp cavity is camouflaged.
From the side of the car, its overall line design is relatively simple, the shorter front and rear suspension reflects the sporty sense of the coupe style, and the short tail shape of the slipback is somewhat similar to the Tesla Model 3. The waistline extends from the front fenders to the tail, and the uplift design at the C-pillar adds a muscular feel.
The new car has a length, width and height of 4770/1860/1460mm, and a wheelbase of 2900mm, although the size is not much improved compared to Qin Plus, but the wheelbase has reached the level of medium-sized cars.
There was no disclosure in the interior, and only a spy photo of the rear angle had been exposed before, and it could be seen that the new car provided a panoramic canopy, sports seats and reading lights in the car.
In the power part, the vehicle will be available in two types of drive, rear drive and four-wheel drive, and the maximum power of the system is 150kW, 180kW and 360kW, respectively. It is reported that the 0-100km/h acceleration time of the four-wheel drive performance version will be controlled at 3.4 seconds, which is very close to the Model 3 high performance version.
Since the new car is based on the pure electric platform of BYD e platform 3.0, which has more advantages in terms of technology and mechanical layout, Sandeon will support the 800V high-voltage platform and continue to be equipped with blade batteries.
In terms of price, the starting price of new cars is expected to fall in the range of 150,000-200,000 yuan, while the price of high-performance four-wheel drive versions is expected to exceed 200,000 yuan. It can be said that in addition to the price, the new car competes with the Tesla Model 3 in terms of shape, positioning and performance.
