For home users, a full-featured SUV is definitely a necessity. SUV with large space and strong passability, most of which have high fuel consumption, how can you have an all-round, economical SUV? Compact, all-electric products are definitely worth considering. But battery life anxiety is also a problem that cannot be ignored, in the pure electric SUV with long endurance and practicality, BYD Yuan PLUS and Nezha U are two good choices.
Home fashion or trendy technology?
Unveiled as a new model, BYD's Yuan PLUS extends the Meta series, which has previously been positioned as a small SUV, to the compact market. The BYD family's latest Dragon Face 3.0 design language has a sufficiently exquisite design sense, and the chrome trim that runs through the front face with the iconic embossed small seal "Yuan" font looks very "advanced". In addition, Meta PLUS will introduce 5 colors to choose from.
On the side of the body, BYD Yuan PLUS designed a silver "dragon scale" trim plate on the C pillar, starting from the chrome LOGO trim at the fender plate and extending backwards to the waistline, creating a very layered and sharp posture. In terms of body size, BYD Yuan PLUS has a length, width and height of 4455/1875/1615 mm and a wheelbase of 2720 mm, positioning itself in a compact SUV.
BYD Yuan PLUS adopts a through-type taillight design at the rear of the car, and the pinnate design inside the light cavity is very recognizable, and the entire taillight group is shaped like a pair of dancing wings. In addition, in the area where the C column extends towards the D column, the metaPLUS creates a sufficiently smooth body posture. The chrome logos "EV" and "meta PLUS" may also hint at the possibility of future DM-i power addition.
The Nezha U from the new car-making force is a model similar to the bydir yuan PLUS positioning, and the closed front grille is also equipped with breathing lights with interactive functions, and the vehicle status information can be seen from the state of the lights. In addition, the headlamp of Nezha U also adopts an irregular shape design, and the internal "T" shaped strip also has a good recognition.
On the side of the body, Nezha U adopts a sufficiently youthful shape. The forward swooping posture creates a nice sense of power, but the style doesn't seem to be very suitable for home users. But Nezha U is after all from the new car manufacturers, or need to work hard to take the trendy route, but the lack of stability still makes this model become a little niche. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Nezha U are 4530/1860/1628 mm, and the wheelbase is 2770 mm.
Compared with the design of the front face and the side of the car, the shape of Nezha U at the rear of the car is more conservative. Multiple straight horizontal lines effectively stretch the visual width, while also having a more obvious sense of layering. The through-type taillight design also appeared on the Nezha U, and the narrow and long shape in the middle and the prominent shape on both sides also had some similarities with BYD Yuan PLUS.
Nezha U technology configuration is more abundant
Entering the car, BYD Yuan PLUS adopts the concept of "rhythm space" led by Bydy's chief interior design director MichelLe Paganetti, the two-color design of the center console with smooth lines, very stable, atmospheric, dumbbell tablet-shaped air conditioning outlets on both sides of the center console look stretchy enough. The shape of the central armrest is very regular, and the buttons are arranged neatly enough to facilitate daily operation.
The interior styling of Nezha U is not as radical as the exterior design, and the overall atmosphere is simple enough. The use of a large number of horizontal lines brings a good sense of extension, and the dual screen design has a strong sense of technology. In the function control area, Nezha U canceled most of the physical buttons and only retained some of the function knobs. The OLED flexible screen equipped with the inside of the A-pillar achieves a "transparent" effect, which effectively solves the problem of the visual blind spot of the A-pillar.
In terms of configuration, BYD Yuan PLUS can have an adaptive rotating central control screen of up to 15.6 inches through optional installation, which has a high degree of playability with diLink 4.0 intelligent network connection system. At the same time, according to the different configurations, the metaPLUS will also be equipped with Dirac audio, multi-color rhythm interactive atmosphere lights, intelligent voice systems, touch LED reading lights, VTOL mobile power station, cloud services and other functions. It is worth mentioning that the standard K song microphone of bydio yuan PLUS can bring a lot of joy when the whole family travels.
Nezha U from the new car-making forces also has a good configuration performance, and the voice assistant supports wake-free operation, continuous dialogue, and recognition of passenger locations. Sentinel mode is a more interesting function, when parking, if someone tries to invade or has an external force to contact the vehicle, it will notify the owner through the mobile phone App and record real-time images.
On the issue of cost performance, Nezha U from the new car-making forces will give full sincerity in the richness of the configuration, but the continuous downward price is the main means for the new car-making forces to compete with traditional car companies. In contrast, the configuration performance of BYD Yuan PLUS is not inferior, the comfort and technology configuration are enough to meet daily use, and also provide the battery pack warranty of the first owner's unlimited years / mileage (the liability exemption clause is subject to the official), which is also the embodiment of the traditional car company's confidence in its own quality.
Endurance performance is close
Meta PLUS is more secure
Finally, looking at the performance of power and endurance, BYD Yuan PLUS is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 150kW and a peak torque of 310N·m. The battery is also equipped with lithium iron phosphate blade batteries without suspense, and the safety has been fully guaranteed. According to the different model configurations, BYD Yuan PLUS has a cruising range of 430km and 510km under NEDC conditions, which can meet the various needs of daily transportation and weekend travel.
Nezha U provides three versions of 400, 500 and 600, with a cruising range of 400km, 500km and 610km respectively, of which the 400 and 500 versions are equipped with a motor with a maximum power of 120kW and a peak torque of 210N·m, and the maximum power of the 600 version of the motor is 150kW and the peak torque is 310N·m. In contrast, the overall performance of the BYD Yuan PLUS will be even better.
Uncle Che summed up
Through the comparison of the above three parts, we can see that BYD Yuan PLUS, as a new energy power from traditional car companies, has a very balanced comprehensive performance. The wide audience of design styles, rich and practical configurations, and powertrains that have been recognized by the market have made the metaPLUS a strong player in the compact pure electric SUV market. As a product from the new forces of car manufacturing, Nezha U has a more radical design style, and the technology configuration is rich enough, but the overall brand recognition is still slightly insufficient. In contrast, for home users, BYD dollar PLUS is a safe choice.
