Destroyer 05 is a new compact sedan launched by BYD, just officially launched on March 17, the price of 119,800-15.58 million yuan after subsidy, the price is close to the qin PLUS DM-i (after subsidy price: 11.18-15.18 million yuan) of the same compact car. In addition, the destroyer 05 and the Qin PLUS DM-i are equipped with BYD DM-i super hybrid system, and the two can be described as natural opponents. So, for the same amount of money, buy the destroyer 05 or the Qin PLUS DM-i? After reading the comparison, you will know the answer.
PART.1
Appearance: Avant-garde vs atmospheric
Although the destroyer 05 and the Qin PLUS DM-i are both bydir's compact cars with the same positioning, the exterior design of the two is very different. Among them, the destroyer 05 adopts a dot-matrix infinity grille design, which looks very avant-garde. In addition, the front face of the destroyer 05 is hung with the "BYD" brand logo, not the Chinese character logo like qin PLUS DM-i.
The front face of Qin PLUS DM-i is similar to the BYD Han DM, and the large-mouth grille looks very atmospheric, which is more in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese people. The reason why Qin PLUS DM-i can sell so well is also related to the excellent design. Of course, the destroyer 05 also has a certain late-starter advantage, and the avant-garde front face should be able to capture the hearts of many young people.
As the king of the new energy market, BYD's models often have a relatively rich configuration, of which the destroyer 05 and Qin PLUS DM-i are all equipped with LED headlights, LED daytime running lights and automatic headlights as standard, and some models are also equipped with adaptive far and near light, and the lighting configuration is relatively rich in models in the early 100,000s.
In the rear of the body, the destroyer 05 and the Qin PLUS DM-i both adopt a penetrating taillight design, but the specific shape is different, of which the taillight of the destroyer 05 adds a dot matrix design, which echoes the front face grille design, and also enhances the exquisiteness and recognition of the tail. As for the exhaust design, both models have a hidden exhaust layout.
In terms of body size, the destroyer 05 has a wheelbase of 2718mm, and the length, width and height are 4780/1837/1495mm, which is only the difference in length compared with the Qin PLUS DM-i. In terms of body size, the destroyer 05 is like a sister model of the Qin PLUS DM-i, except that the former is sold on BYD Ocean Network.
PART.2
Interior: Destroyer 05 has a stronger sense of technology
Unlike the huge differences in appearance, the interior of the Destroyer 05 has many similarities with the Qin PLUS DM-i, such as having a rotatable floating central control screen. However, the destroyer 05's central control screen size can reach up to 15.6 inches, the rest is 12.8 inches, while the Qin PLUS DM-i central control screen is only 12.8 inches. In addition, the destroyer 05 is also equipped with an 8.8-inch suspension instrument panel, combined with a 15.6-inch central control screen, creating a stronger sense of technology.
Destroyer 05 and Qin PLUS DM-i are equipped with BYD's DiLink intelligent network system, which supports intelligent voice interaction, OTA remote upgrade and other functions. However, the Qin PLUS DM-i entry version does not support voice interaction, and from this point of view, it seems that the entry version of the Destroyer 05 is more worth starting. Of course, the destroyer 05 starter version is also priced higher.
As for the top model of 120km, the 120km flagship of the Destroyer 05 is 4,000 yuan more expensive than the 120km flagship of Qin PLUS DM-i, but the configuration has also changed. Specifically, the 120km flagship version of the destroyer 05 has more battery pre-heating, electric adjustment of the passenger seat, and the size of the central control screen has also been increased to 15.6 inches, and even equipped with 8 speakers. In general, the 120km flagship of the destroyer 05 is expensive in configuration, and as for whether it is worth it, it depends on your needs.
PART.3
Power: Fuel consumption and power are the same
Like the Qin PLUS DM-i, the destroyer 05 is also equipped with BYD's 1.5L DM-i plug-in system, in which the maximum power of the 1.5L engine is 81kW and the maximum torque is 135N·m. In addition, both models have a 55km pure electric endurance version and a 120km pure electric endurance version to choose from, of which the maximum power of the 55km pure electric endurance version is 132kW, and the maximum power of the 120km version of the motor is 145kW.
As for fuel consumption, the destroyer 05's 100-kilometer power loss fuel consumption is 3.8L, which is consistent with qin PLUS DM-i. If you only focus on fuel economy, then the destroyer 05 and Qin PLUS DM-i can surprise you, choose anyone the same. In terms of suspension, both the Destroyer 05 and qin PLUS DM-i use a suspension combination of front McPherson + rear torque beam.
After comparison, it can be found that the biggest difference between the destroyer 05 and the Qin PLUS DM-i is that there is basically no difference in configuration and design, power and size. If you like avant-garde and technological design, and have higher requirements for configuration, then choose the Destroyer 05. If you only care about the price of the new car, then choose the Qin PLUS DM-i, which is slightly lower than the destroyer 05. In fact, at the moment when oil prices are high, destroyer 05 and Qin PLUS DM-i are good choices.
