On February 19, the second model of BYD e platform 3.0 - yuan PLUS was officially launched, compared with the 4 models pre-sold, a new flagship PLUS model was added, a total of 5 models, the official guidance price of 13.18 - 15.98 million yuan, and the launch of five exclusive benefits. This car will also be BYD's first "strategic overseas" global passenger car, and will open pre-sales in the Australian market at the same time, named ATTO 3. At this point, BYD's passenger cars have also opened the prelude to globalization.
We have previously detailed the core advantages of BYD e platform 3.0, in which the latest eight-in-one electric powertrain has been integrated on the basis of the previous three-in-one, integrating eight components of motor, electronic control, reducer, high-voltage distribution box, DC converter, on-board charger, vehicle controller and battery management unit in one housing. The overall efficiency of the system is as high as 89%, the volume is reduced by 20% under the same power, the weight is reduced by 15%, and the power density and efficiency are at the top level in the world. In addition, compared with the smaller power motor used on the dolphin, the yuan PLUS uses a 150kW motor with a maximum torque of 310 Nm, which can get a better acceleration experience, and the acceleration of 0-100km/h is 7.3 seconds. In addition, it adopts a wide temperature range high efficiency heat pump system, with -30 ~ 60 °C wide temperature range working capacity. The vehicle electronic appliances adopt the control domain, which is divided into the body domain, the power domain and the intelligent cockpit domain, which has a high degree of integration, and the efficiency of communication and control is naturally improved. The use of blade batteries as part of the chassis structure can improve the rigidity of the structure and is also one of the advantages of the platform. In terms of endurance, it is divided into two types: 430 km and 510 km.
In addition, the new platform allows the body structure to be greatly optimized, its body length is actually not long, only 4455mm, in the traditional car is considered a small car, but its wheelbase reached 2720mm, which is a proper compact level. The front and rear overhangs are relatively compact, especially the rear suspension is very short, which is very capable and improves the sensitivity of the driving control. At the same time, it has won enough space for the carriage, and the rear space has reached the level of the traditional mid-level car.
In terms of intelligence, the high-end model is equipped with the L2-level driver assistance system provided by Bosch, using the fourth-generation monocular camera for target detection, with the whole vehicle radar, bringing the feature-rich DiPilot intelligent driver assistance system, integrating ACC-S&G start-stop full-speed adaptive cruise system, AEB automatic emergency braking system, ICC intelligent pilot system, TSR traffic sign intelligent identification system, LDWS lane departure warning system, BSD blind spot monitoring system and many other auxiliary functions. Security is guaranteed. The top-of-the-line model also adds APA automatic parking assistance. The whole series is equipped with DiLink 4.0 (4G) intelligent network system as standard, mainly based on 12.8-inch adaptive rotating hovering screen, and the top model provides a 15.6-inch large screen, which is more direct in experience.
In terms of appearance, it still adopts the family's Dragon Face 3.0 design language, the new dragon whiskers, the Yuanli Awakening luminous wordmark, the wind wing sports hub and other details have no lack of design sense, and the waist line plus the low-lying shape of the back has a certain sense of movement. It provides five bright colors of surf blue, ski white, climbing gray, adventure green and parkour red, which are in line with the temperament of sports.
The interior is very innovative, by the speed blue, power gray two-color collocation, the center console to use a large wave shape, muscle flow through the door panel and dashboard; integrated sports seats take into account the safety, comfort and dynamics; dumbbell air conditioning outlet, treadmill type central armrest, string type door panel decoration and other details are very fresh, giving people a bright feeling.
In terms of passive safety, the proportion of hot formed steel in the body reaches 11%, and the tensile strength of steel is up to 1500Mpa; the proportion of steel with high strength steel and above is 85%, and the proportion of ultra-high strength steel is 55%. To improve the comfort of the chassis, the rear suspension is multi-link independent. The top-of-the-line model also offers a smart electric tailgate and an air purification system.
At present, the 150,000-level electric SUV can not play much, and the monthly sales of more than 10,000 have not yet appeared. BYD Meta PLUS is likely to play this role. According to the manufacturers, they have received 20,000 orders during the pre-sale period (starting from New Year's Day), indicating that the market feedback is still very positive. BYD's annual target this year is very high, and the meta PLUS should be able to contribute a lot of increments.
