Test drive BYD Destroyer 05 gives young a new option

If the BYD Dynasty series carries the cultural feelings of the Chinese nation and the enduring mellowness of the rich historical heritage, then the newly released ocean network is like drinking coconut water and blowing the sea breeze under the beach parasol: fresh, sweet, warm, and pleasant. All in all, BYD brings us a whole new choice.

Destroyer 05 is the first car of BYD Auto Ocean Network, which belongs to the warship product sequence and indicates that it is equipped with a DM-i super hybrid power system, and the 05 positioning A+ class. The new car was launched on March 17, and according to the manufacturer's staff, the price of the destroyer 05 would be several thousand to 10,000 yuan higher than the existing BYD sedan of the same class.

For example, the body size of the destroyer 05 is 4780mm×1837mm×1495mm, and the wheelbase reaches 2718mm, whether it is the visual volume or the spatial performance of the ride, it has reached the level of A+ class cars such as Volkswagen Langyi and Toyota Asia Lion.

The new "marine aesthetics" design concept creates a new body posture, inspired by the ripples of the waves, the dot-matrix edgeless grille weakens the outline of the intake grille, on the one hand, showing the design evolution direction of new energy vehicles, and enriching the layering and refinement of the front of the car through a large number of horizontal chrome trim strips.

Full LED headlights and through-type LED daily running lights are integrated with the upper decorative strips on the front of the car, echoing back and forth with the LED tail lights running through the rear of the car, creating a wide body and low lying sports posture, simple and refreshing overall style complements BYD's new LOGO, with some modern sense of the simple frontier of electronic consumer goods, and the temperament is indeed more pleasing to the aesthetics of young people.

The atmosphere in the carriage is also different from the previous BYD models, and the design idea of "marine aesthetics" largely continues the design theme of youthful appearance and new energy, the lines are short and not perfunctory, and the details of the design are exquisite and not fancy. With a large-size central control suspension Pad as the core to the two ends, the battle is neat, the sense of science and technology is strong, and it feels quite a "new force".

According to the difference in configuration, the suspension Pad has two screen specifications of 12.8 and 15.6 inches, and the impact of the 15.6-inch rotatable Pad on an A+ class sedan is still quite shocking, even if it is accustomed to driving a new power electric vehicle LCD large-screen enthusiasts will be satisfied. It has a built-in 8-core chip, powerful human-computer interaction and network connection function, and is an addictive experience when used.

The full LCD instrument is also a highlight, the simple and full of scientific and technological UI interface design is also very suitable for new energy vehicles, and the 8.8-inch LCD instrument not only has a wealth of information display, just the right blank space and layout is also easy to read, whether it is functional or quality sense is in place.

In order to achieve a higher sense of value, the Destroyer 05 did work harder in detail. The material of the center console trim panel is not only delicate, but also less scratch-prone than black paint, and the durability is better; the places where the door interior will touch are wrapped in a soft wrapping of plastic, providing up to four car color schemes, and also giving young people a sense of quality and personalized choice.

The front seat is an integrated sports seat, not only selling enough sports, the shoulder and waist wrapping feeling is also enough, although the full padding and relatively high sitting posture will still make the moment of sitting back to the essence of the family grocery cart, but the beautiful sports shape and detailed contrast and piping decoration Who will refuse?

The rear row is also a fairly good riding experience, leg and head space for 180cm passengers are considered spacious and comfortable, if you can slightly sacrifice the second row of "visual knee space" in exchange for a larger backrest tilt, the comfort of the rear row can further jump, after all, the rear treatment of this A+ class sedan is also thoughtful enough, there is a rear air conditioner outlet and USB power supply, and there is a storage slot for the mobile phone on the door, which is very flattering.

From a static dimension, the destroyer 05, as the first sedan product of Ocean Network, does give people a refreshing feeling, and even should look at BYD's new products with a new eye. After moving, the destroyer 05 also feels a surprise, which is to say that it is equipped with DM-i super hybrid technology.

DM-i includes Snap Cloud-Plug Hybrid 1.5L high-efficiency engine, electric motor and EHS hybrid system, the power battery is DM-i super hybrid special power blade battery, there are 55km and 120km versions, the power battery is 8.3kWh and 18.3kWh, of which the 120km version can also support fast charging and reverse charging.

If the charging conditions are good, choose the 120km version of the daily commute can almost achieve only electricity without burning oil or rarely burning oil, measured full power state, take 4 people to open the air conditioner in the urban area to drive the comprehensive fuel consumption is only 1.8L/100km; the power loss state high-speed driving and open mandatory power preservation, in a relatively fuel-intensive working condition, its average fuel consumption is still not more than 5L/100km, the overall energy consumption efficiency is really good, completely not lost to the Japanese two fields of hybrid solutions.

Thanks to the electricity-based drive logic, the destroyer 05 in most cases reflects the driving characteristics of infinite proximity to electric vehicles, such as agile starting, abundant torque output and zero delay, no gear shift delay impact, smooth and quiet is the main tone, easy to open is also quite good. The difference between the three driving modes is obvious, the general urban transportation with ECO is enough, and the power release of the SPORT mode is quite fierce.

The 120km version only takes 7.3 seconds to complete zero hundred acceleration, which is really fast enough for a 150,000 yuan family car. But with the extra weight of the power battery, electric motor and hybrid system, the Destroyer 05's braking and handling responsiveness is slightly sluggish, and the performance limit and willingness to move are not high.

But it was this extra weight that made the Destroyer 05 rock-solid when dealing with bumps and shocks on the road. Although it is just an ordinary front McPherson/rear torsion beam suspension, the chassis's filtration treatment of the road impact is not rough at all, and the NVH control is also quite decent, only on the road with particularly serious damage, the rear passengers will feel that the rear suspension of the torsion beam is a little bit uncomfortable.

Overall, the driving experience of the destroyer 05 is as excellent as an electric vehicle, and there is no endurance anxiety of pure electric vehicles, fuel economy is far better than the dynamic performance of conventional gasoline vehicles is of a high level, in addition to the extreme performance and driving pleasure is slightly weaker, its energy efficiency, driving quality, riding comfort, intelligent driving assistance and other fields are huge advantages compared to the same price joint venture car.

Dm-i super hybrid technology has frequently exploded as soon as it is launched, which can be described as a circle of strength fans. The Destroyer 05 has the same core hardware, but it's also a new product that's very different from previous models. New design language, more accurate young positioning, these soft strengths may be a new breakthrough point for destroyer 05 and joint venture brands to compete for the A-class sedan market, on the basis of good products, one more emotional choice, it is always worth looking forward to.
