In the face of strong joint venture brands, few domestic brand models can gain a firm foothold in the car market. Especially in the fiercely competitive compact car market, the domestic brands are only Geely Emgrand and Changan Yidong, which can also be regarded as high-selling models. However, with the maturity of DM-i technology, BYD's models began to show their prominence, and in February, BYD's Qin PLUS has successfully entered the fifth place in the car sales list, performing well.
Recently, another BYD sedan equipped with DM-i technology was officially launched, this model is BYD Destroyer 05, so how does this model perform? Which model is the best to choose? And how to choose this model and Qin PLUS? Let's take a look.
Destroyer 05 has launched a total of two endurance models with a total of 5 model configurations, with a price range from 119,800 yuan to 155,800 yuan. For the average home user, the low-end two models are already rich enough.
In the appearance part, we see that the BYD warship series is very different from the previous Dynasty series in terms of design, the shape is sharper, and the degree of integration is also higher. Like the frameless mesh shape and the through-type headlights, this car looks very scientific and technological.
The headlight series adopts the configuration of far and near LED headlights, while the LED daily running lights, automatic headlamps, headlight height adjustment and delayed shutdown functions have achieved the standard of the whole series.
In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the destroyer 05 are 4780/1837/1495mm, the wheelbase is 2718mm, the body size is basically equivalent to qin PLUS, and the wheelbase is exactly the same.
Looking at the past from the side rear, the destroyer 05 and the Qin PLUS feel more like, and it is difficult for unfamiliar friends to distinguish between the two models.
In terms of body color, the destroyer 05 provides four body colors: snow white, deland black, time gray, and dome blue. The choice of colors is still quite rich.
In the wheel part, except for the entry-level model, which uses 225/60 R16-inch tires, the rest of the models are 215/55 R17-inch tires, but the entire model series is not equipped with spare tires.
In the interior part, the destroyer 05 is very "BYD", a central screen of the central control design looks very simple, the size of the screen is 12.8 inches, the top model is 15.6 inches.
The color matching of the interior adopts a multi-color matching style composed of four colors: basalt black, sky gray, quantum high brightness gray and pink.
In the power part, the destroyer 05 uses a plug-in hybrid system. It is composed of a Snap Cloud-Plug Hybrid 1.5L engine and a permanent magnet synchronous motor, and the battery is a DM-i hybrid blade battery, of which the battery capacity of the 55km endurance version is 8.3kWh, and the capacity of the 120km endurance version is 18.3kWh.
Let's take a look at the configuration of the destroyer 05 model. And what is the difference in the configuration of each model?
1. Destroyer 05 55km Comfort
Comfort As an entry-level model of the car series, the overall configuration is still very satisfactory. 225/60 R16-inch tires, main passenger seat airbags, front and rear side airbags, front and rear head curtains, tire pressure display, ESP body stabilization system, reversing radar and imagery, cruise control, driving mode switching, Bluetooth/nfc key, keyless entry and start, leather multi-function steering wheel, imitation leather seats, 12.8-inch central control screen, 6-speaker speakers, near and far LED headlights, automatic air conditioning and rear seat air outlets, etc.
From the perspective of the configuration of the basic model, it is completely enough to meet the daily travel use, so for those users who do not have a high budget, this model is worth choosing.
2. Destroyer 05 55km luxury type
The price of the luxury model is 10,000 yuan more than that of the comfort model, and the configuration has more 215/55 R17-inch tires, front radar, 360° panoramic image, electric sunroof, 8.8-inch full LCD instrument, driver's seat electric adjustment, one-button lifting and lowering of the whole car window, etc., and the increased configuration is relatively rich.
3. Destroyer 05 55km Premium
The price of the premium model has increased by 6,000 yuan, in exchange for active driver assistance system, full-speed adaptive cruise, front mobile phone wireless charging, driving recorder, passenger seat electric adjustment, adaptive near and far light, etc. For those who have high requirements for active safety configuration, this model meets their needs.
4. Destroyer 05 120km Premium
The configuration of the 120km endurance premium model is actually similar to the previous 55km luxury model configuration, the price has increased by 12,000 yuan, in addition to the difference in power, the configuration has more rear central handrails, 8 speakers and mobile power station functions that can be externally powered. The cost performance of this model is also good, which is a good choice for those users who have higher requirements for battery life.
5. Destroyer 05 120km flagship
Compared with the premium type, the 120km flagship model has a budget increase of 14,000 yuan, and the configuration has more active driving assistance, reversing side warning, full-speed adaptive cruise, wireless charging of front mobile phones, electric adjustment of the passenger seat, 15.6-inch central control screen, adaptive far and near light, multi-color atmosphere lights and other configurations. As the top model of the car series, the configuration is indeed rich enough, and it is also the only model in the car series with a 15.6-inch screen. However, the higher price makes the cost performance of this configuration not outstanding.
From the overall price and configuration of the destroyer 05, I personally believe that it is still relatively balanced, the difference between each model is not large, and the configuration of each level is also just right to upgrade. And how to choose this model and Qin PLUS?
In fact, if you really analyze the price and configuration of the destroyer 05 and Qin PLUS, in fact, the two models have basically performed at the product force level, and the price gap has just brought about the difference in configuration. If these are two models with different orientations, I personally think it is more appropriate to say that there are two designs of the same model. 、
Therefore, for these two models, under the premise of comparable price, comparable configuration and equal product strength, it is still necessary to look at the "face value" to choose.
