DM-i blessing, the hybrid is no longer a foil
The biggest change in this redesign is the addition of DM-i models to Han's hybrid series, while the previous Han DM is classified into the DM-p system. First of all, let's explain the difference between DM-i and DM-p, DM is BYD's hybrid model, according to different product characteristics, divided into DM-i and DM-p two series. Dm-i is more fuel-efficient, while DM-p has better performance.
From the perspective of the distribution of the number of models, DM-i is BYD's main model, which is also very normal, in the field of hybrids, DM-i can now be described as thriving, the limelight is in full swing, with excellent performance to win market recognition, applause and applause.
Whether it is Han DM-i or DM-p, the power system is composed of a 1.5T plug-in and hybrid special engine and an electric motor, the difference is that DM-i is a single motor and DM-p is a dual motor. Among the four models of the DM-i series, the maximum power of the motor of the three models with a minimum of 145kW, the maximum torque of 316N·m, the mileage of pure electricity is 121km, and the fuel consumption of the loss is 4.2L/100km; the maximum power of the motor of the top model is 160kW, the maximum torque is 325N·m, the pure electric mileage is doubled, up to 242km, and the fuel consumption is 4.5L/100km. The zero-hundred acceleration time of all models is 7.9s.
The DM-p model is equipped with dual front and rear motors, the system has a comprehensive power of 360 kW, a comprehensive torque of 675 N·m, and only 3.7 seconds of zero hundred acceleration. Its pure electric mileage is 202km, and the fuel consumption is 5.2L/100km. At the same time, the dual motors also form an electric four-wheel drive system, which brings better handling performance to the vehicle.
In terms of design, the new car has some adjustments, or the familiar Dragon Face design language, but the front grille size is larger, the border is thinner, while the right angle is changed to a rounded corner, the style of the lower bracket has also changed, and the visual effect is more atmospheric.
The overall silhouette of the body side is the same as that of the old model, or the slender and smooth style, the slipback and short tail, and the muscular shape, highlighting the youthful and dynamic atmosphere. The shape of the lower side skirt has changed, which echoes the design of the dragon's claw marks on the C-pillar.
The rear through-the taillights remove the chrome trim, and the interior adopts a Structure similar to a Chinese knot, which looks more delicate, more technological, and more recognizable when lit.
The interior basically continues the style of the current model, but the color matching is more elegant, more in line with its positioning and identity, while the instrument and the central control screen have changed to a new UI interface, which is more in line with daily use habits.
The addition of the DM-i hybrid system has played a reinforcing role in the hybrid car system in the Han family, and the recognition of Han itself, coupled with the fame and strength of DM-i, it can be imagined that the hybrid Han is going to turn over. Previous official data showed that the sales ratio of Han DM and Han EV was about 3:7, and it was very likely to become five or five after that.
HanEV has improved battery life and more stylish design
The main changes of Han EV are the fine-tuning of the design and the improvement of the battery life. The adjustment of the front face is mainly concentrated in the lower encirclement, the lower grille shape changes, and the decoration at the air intakes on both sides is changed to arc, and the visual effect is more fashionable and beautiful.
Like DM-i and DM-p, the HanEV side skirt has also been changed to the same style, and the wheel hub of the new style is more sporty, not the low wind resistance wheels used by new energy models, although the change is not large, but the vehicle temperament is immediately different. The same is true of the rear of the car, the Chinese knot taillights enhance the sense of refinement and technology.
The interior is still familiar, and the changes are the same as the hybrid models, with more elegant color matching and better use of the car machine, improving the car experience.
The new Han EV has a total of 3 models, two of which are front-drive and the top is equipped with four-wheel drive. The front-drive model is a front-drive single motor, with a maximum power of 180kW, a maximum torque of 350N·m, a comprehensive cruising range of 715 km CLTC, and 7.9s of zero hundred acceleration. The four-wheel drive model is a front and rear dual motors, the system comprehensive power is 380kW, the comprehensive torque is 700N·m, the CLTC comprehensive cruising range is 610km, and the zero hundred acceleration is 3.9s. Compared with the cruising range of about 5 or 600 kilometers of the old model, the new car has a lot of improvement.
At the same time, Han EV also launched a Qianshan Cui Limited Edition, which is the same as the ordinary four-wheel drive performance version in terms of performance, the main difference is that it has its own exclusive design inside and outside, and the cold emerald blue body color is rich and deep, and the low-key does not lose the sense of luxury. At the same time, sports kits such as carbon black wheels, blackened front and rear headlights, and high-performance stone green four-piston fixed pliers also add a lot of color to the appearance.
The interior also has a lot of green elements, forming an internal and external echo, and it also has a fragrance function, with three different fragrances of mineral, wood and floral, bringing olfactory enjoyment to the occupants of the car.
Configuration analysis, the most valuable entry model
The next step is the configuration analysis, through the price and configuration differences between each model, analyze which model is more cost-effective. Overall, the price of Han DM-p has risen more than the old Han DM. Before the Han DM top placement of more than 240,000, now it sold to 319,800, the biggest change is that the pure electric mileage increased from 81km to 202km, as to whether the value is worth spending more than 70,000, it depends on yourself.
Next, let's look at the Han DM-i series, first of all, the 121KM premium model priced at 215,800 yuan, although it is an entry-level model, the configuration is already extremely comprehensive, which can meet the needs of the vast majority of consumers. And 121km of pure electric mileage, in the plug-in hybrid model is not short, want to buy Han DM-i friends, I highly recommend this configuration.
After that is the 121KM honorable type priced at 225,800 yuan, the improvement of the configuration is not less, but many are not necessities, basically the icing on the cake, whether to spend more than 10,000, see their own needs.
After that, it is the 121KM premium type priced at 235,800 yuan, compared with the previous gear, the configuration improvement is not obvious, and there is basically no real effect, so it is not recommended.
Finally, the 242KM flagship model, priced at 289,800 yuan, has a richer driver assistance system, the power is slightly improved, and the most obvious change is that the pure electric mileage has doubled. But this price difference is too big, I think it is really unnecessary to spend more than 50,000. In fact, this model is used to show muscles, and BYD should not think of using it as the main sales model.
After analyzing the DM-i car series, it is the turn of the EV car series, first of all, the 715KM front-drive honorable model priced at 269,800 yuan, the configuration level is almost the same as the DM-i honorable type, or quite comprehensive, so the recommended index is the same, and the entry-level version of the EV model is completely sufficient.
After that is the 715KM front-drive flagship model priced at 287,500 yuan, mainly because the driving assistance function is more abundant, and there are some dispensable comfort configurations, which are 17,700 yuan more expensive, and I personally feel that there is no need to go to this one.
Up is the price of 288,600 yuan 610KM four-wheel drive exclusive type, the most obvious change is a single motor to double motor, the power is much stronger, but at the same time the endurance is reduced, but also less than a few configurations, but the price is almost the same as the previous gear, if you have a demand for power, you can choose this.
Finally, the 329,800 yuan Qianshancui Limited Edition, the power and 610KM four-wheel drive exclusive type, the configuration level and 715KM front-drive flagship type is similar, if you are not bad money, you like the limited edition of the exclusive, personalized feeling, then start this.
summary
The appearance has been slightly improved, but the effect is good, and the new car is more stylish. The addition of DM-i models and the improvement of EV model endurance have made the han car series product strength improved, there is no doubt that the hot sales trend of Han will continue, and there is a great possibility that sales will reach a new high, we will wait and see.
