Since the announcement of the suspension of fuel vehicles a few days ago, the attention of the outside world to BYD has risen, and the new members of the Han family have made a shining appearance today, which can be described as earning enough eyeballs. This time, it launched a total of four series of nine new cars, namely Han DM-p, Han DM-i, Han EV Genesis Edition and Han EV Qianshancui Limited Edition, with a rich product matrix, aiming to attract the recognition of different consumer groups. So what is the charm of the Han DM-i series, and which of the five new cars is more worth buying? The answer is below.
In terms of appearance design, Han DM-i is based on the new BYD Dragon Face language, although it looks similar to the Qin, Song and other families, but it looks more sharp and radical, to avoid falling into the "matryoshka doll" circle. The oversized polygonal mesh presents a "dragon scale" effect inside, which is not only extremely impactful, but also effectively improves the overall recognition. The narrow and long headlight group is equipped with a standard LED light source, with the surrounding chrome decoration, which has a "dragon whisker" look after lighting.
Coming to the side, the Han DM-i creates a better sneaky posture to highlight the athletic attributes. The wheel size is 19 inches, and the internal structure distinguishes different styles to meet the individual needs of consumers. Its tail penetrating Chinese knot LED taillight set is a highlight, and under the streamer layout, it is very eye-catching when opened.
Entering the car, Han DM-i takes a light luxury style in the interior configuration, which can make people feel full of sincerity. It is covered with soft materials, and also adds real wood and real aluminum imported from Europe, which not only effectively improves the driving experience, but also enhances the overall grade. Some super models can also support the optional night purple carbon fiber interior, and the sports atmosphere is more intense. The new car is equipped with a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument + 15.6-inch large touch LCD screen as standard, which not only ensures the clarity, but also is equipped with DiLink 4.0 (5G) intelligent network connection system, which has rich application support, and the human-computer interaction experience is worthy of recognition.
In terms of size, the length of the Han DM-i is close to 5 meters, and the wheelbase is 2920mm, and the data performance is eye-catching among medium and large cars. The car makes efficient use of the interior environment, thereby extending a considerable range of motion and storage space. The new seats are covered in imitation leather/genuine leather materials, which are comfortable and supportive to the touch, and features such as heating/ventilation to further improve the driving experience. In addition, some models are also equipped with Dynaudio Tanner audio, with multi-layer soundproof glass and car air purifier and other devices, driving a little more comfortable.
Previously, relying on DM-i super hybrid technology, Qin PLUS DM-i and Song PLUS DM-i were thriving in the field of plug-in hybrids, and almost every month they won the top and second place in sales. ASD has therefore taken a different path and seized the opportunity in the new energy war. Han DM-i is also also equipped with this "black technology", based on a 1.5T turbocharged engine + electric motor, the former with a maximum power of 102 kW and the latter with a maximum power of 145/160 kW. Oil prices are rising, but the car's fuel economy is excellent, which is also a key advantage in its market.
For security attributes, Han DM-i has also made great efforts. Not only is it equipped with 11 all-round airbags as standard, but there are also up to 41 hot-formed steels in the whole vehicle, which further strengthens the level of protection. The new DiPilot intelligent driver assistance system is a variety of applications, coupled with Bosch's 6th generation ultrasonic radar and other rich configurations, to escort you safely.
Overall, Han DM-i reflects BYD's full sincerity. So which car is the most worth buying?
2022 DM-i 121KM Premium
Manufacturer guidance price: 215,800 yuan
Recommended index: three and a half stars
Although it is an entry-level model, in fact, the overall cost performance of this car is not bad. However, its seat is covered with imitation leather material, and the passenger seat lacks some adjustment. In addition, it does not support the main driver's seat power seat memory and does not have a Dynaudio Tanner audio, which may be slightly discolored in the driving experience.
2022 DM-i 121KM Premium
Manufacturer guidance price: 225,800 yuan
Recommended index: four stars
Although the car still covers the seats with imitation leather materials, the passenger seat has increased the height adjustment (2 directions) and waist support (4 directions) to effectively alleviate the fatigue of the journey. While the driver's seat supports power seat memory, the addition of Dynaudio's Tanner audio is a highlight.
2022 DM-i 121KM Premium
Manufacturer guidance price: 235,800 yuan
Recommended index: four and a half stars
The main aspects of the three major pieces have not changed, and the extra ten thousand yuan spent is to upgrade to a leather steering wheel and leather seats, in addition to adding multi-colored atmosphere lights, and the exterior mirrors become automatic anti-glare. These things are installed outside more than this price, considering that Han DM-i has exceeded the 200,000 yuan mark, so spending a little more is still relatively worthwhile.
2022 DM-i 242KM flagship
Manufacturer guidance price: 289,800 yuan
Recommended index: four stars
In fact, compared with the previous model, this version can be described as a comprehensive upgrade. First of all, its pure electric mileage has directly doubled to 242 kilometers, and the total power of the motor has also been increased to 160 kilowatts, which is more powerful in performance. Secondly, the car adds functions such as parallel assist, fatigue driving reminder and reversing side warning, automatic parking entry, etc., and more importantly, 4 ultrasonic radars and 4 millimeter wave radars, and the safety capabilities are more reliable. But the difference between the car and the previous model is too big to spend so much money.
