AS BYD's flagship sedan, BYD Han can be said to be a hot selling existence in the domestic 250,000-level car market, and since the listing of this car, the basic monthly sales can be maintained at more than 10,000 vehicles.
The main reason is inseparable from BYD's identity as the "flagship sedan", and the word "flagship" means that BYD has installed the most advanced technology and the most advanced configuration on this body.
The BYDHan family currently on sale, the 2020 model is divided into pure electric EV and plug-in hybrid DM version, while the 2021 model is only available for EV models.
A few days ago, Han DM-i and Han DM-p were officially listed, supplementing the han family's product line, the new car price of 215,800-319,800 yuan, of which Han DM-i provides 121km, 242km two pure electric endurance versions; in addition, the Han series of pure electric EV synchronous listing, including genesis version and Qianshancui limited edition, priced at 269,800-329,800 yuan.
We all know that in BYD's full product series, DM model sales have been able to compete with the EV series, and the launch of Han DM-i is indispensable to the significance of the Han family: it will promote the sales of the Han family. From march, the sales of pure electric EV exceeded 10,000 units, and if the Han DM-i model can also reach this volume, it means that the Han family's monthly sales can reach 20,000 vehicles.
So, what is the difference between the Han DM-i and the original DM models launched by the Han family? And what are the upgrades of the new Han EV? Let's talk about it
Battery life and fuel consumption have a look, DM series upgrades are to the point
The new DM series mainly provides two versions of Han DM-i and Han DM-p, of which Han DM-i is designed to meet some consumers who buy cars oriented to economic and fuel saving, and Han DM-p is built for users who pursue performance experience, and the zero hundred acceleration of the car has achieved 3.7s, which is definitely the leader of the same level.
In my opinion, another Han DM-i is more suitable for the general public, and two days ago our colleagues also had a test drive experience of a pure electric endurance 121km version. The power of this car is equipped with a super hybrid system composed of the Snap Cloud-Plug Hybrid special turbocharged 1.5T engine, EHS electric hybrid system and blade battery that we are very familiar with.
In addition to its quiet advantages, it also has a very good fuel saving performance, with a fuel consumption of 4.2L per 100 kilometers under power loss conditions, while the comprehensive cruising range of Han DM-i NEDC can reach 1300km in full oil and full power. It is completely the gospel of "lazy people", long-distance travel does not have to work hard to find charging piles, as far as the current market environment is concerned, plug-in hybrid models are indeed more able to meet the travel needs of multiple scenarios.
In addition, Bydir Han model product director Yang Feng also showed us a set of data: 98% of Han users have an average daily mileage of less than 200 kilometers. This means that the purchase of the Han DM-i 242KM flagship (pure electric endurance 242km), pure electric mode can achieve daily commuting travel.
Let's take a look at the appearance changes of this car, compared with the current model, the new Han DM-i and Han DM-p both use piano black sports kits, the obvious differences include the fog light area of the front face, the use of more layered decoration, with the black front lip, so that the sporty atmosphere and tension of the whole car are stronger.
At the rear end, it is still equipped with a very highly recognizable through-line light strip, and the internal light source structure has been slightly adjusted, and it has been changed to the design of the Chinese ending light, which increases the fashion sense of the whole vehicle from the presentation point of view.
In terms of configuration, I compared two new and old versions with similar prices, namely the 2020 DM Four-Wheel Drive Performance Edition Deluxe Version priced at 222,800 yuan and the 2022 DM-i 121KM Premium Edition priced at 225,800 yuan.
The new model increased by 3,000 yuan, the body length increased by 15mm, and the fuel tank volume increased to 50L. The new features include an electric tailgate, a passenger seat height adjustment/4-way lumbar support, and a driver's seat power seat memory function.
In general, as a new model of the Han series family, the change of Han DM-i is mainly concentrated in the intelligent and power level, the new model has made a supplement to the pure electric endurance of the current model, and from a selective point of view, BYD has expanded the Han DM series models to 7 models, which also added the performance model "Han DM-p", which obviously meets the needs of different users.
The design and intelligent experience optimization is obvious, and the new Han EV is more technological?
Another listed model, the new Han EV, is also worth looking forward to, the car design details of the adjustment to keep pace with the times, such as the front face shape of the grille lower part of the fine-tuned, the visual presentation is more dynamic, and the EV family of all models are equipped with 19-inch tires, further enhance the sportiness.
At the same time, the new model also launched the HanEV Qianshancui limited edition model, the appearance of the color is a highlight, in the sunlight, showing a cold emerald blue, and the use of stone green four-piston pliers (front) to do an echo, the interior seats with high-grade suede, highlighting the sense of luxury.
Obviously, compared with the regular model, the Qianshan Cui limited edition model is forced and the sense of premium has been strengthened a little. Of course, the pricing also reflects its honor, and the guiding price reaches 329,800 yuan.
It is also worth mentioning that in terms of power, the new car of the new Han EV single-motor version has a maximum power of 180 kW, which is 17 kW higher than the current model. In addition, with the blessing of wide temperature range high-efficiency heat pump air conditioning and battery direct cooling and direct heat technology, its CLTC endurance is as high as 715km.
Compared with the current model, the new Model equipped with the DiPilot Intelligent Driver Assistance System has added functions such as highway driving assistance, emergency avoidance assistance, and smart comity; among them, the smart courtesy function, according to the introduction, when the speed is greater than 60km/h, the body sensor will detect the large truck next to the lane parallel, and then make corresponding treatment to improve the safety of travel.
At the same time, all models of the new Han EV series are matched with the W-HUD head-up display system, which supports displaying vehicle speed, navigation, ADAS, and incoming caller prompt light information.
Write at the back:
At present, the BYD Han series wants to compete with Xiaopeng, Tesla and other products with software advantages, which is unlikely to be realized, but in the car market with intelligent and electrified development, BYD has increased investment in the field of intelligence, which can further narrow the gap.
In addition, the Han series relies on BYD's years of technical accumulation, compared with the same level of products, it also has certain advantages in battery and motor technology; and compared with the new power models at similar prices, the SPACE, configuration, comfort and other aspects of the BYD Han series also have a slight upper hand.
We learned that in the past Three months, the monthly sales of pure electric vehicle models in the Han series have exceeded 10,000 units, and the supplemented DM-i models are bound to drive a new round of sales growth.
As for the production capacity problems that consumers are more worried about, BYD revealed that in order to maximize production capacity, for key models, it is very likely that a factory will produce a model in the future, and the Shenzhen factory will mainly produce Han, and in accordance with the monthly production capacity standard of 20,000-30,000 vehicles, which will greatly shorten the user's car pick-up cycle. I believe that for a product that has a good market response, with the addition of new models, the subsequent market performance will be more eye-catching.
