In 2020, I changed the pure electric Han EV, although BYD's 3 advantages are obvious, there are still two major pain points, each one poking the heart, I use my car experience to talk about how BYD's car is.
In the field of fuel vehicles, even if BYD has such a "star" car as F3, in the vast car companies, BYD fuel vehicles are "unremarkable" and not dazzling, and now fuel vehicles have long announced the suspension of production. However, in the field of new energy in the past two years, BYD is unique, and its sales and momentum have almost become the "brother" of domestic cars.
On new energy vehicles, BYD and Tesla are always unavoidable topics, the gap between the two is obvious, but the real gap is not in the "three electricity" system, some car owners said, run a high-speed, bydir Han and Tesla Model3 gap immediately reflected vividly, indeed, high-speed is like a "mirror", it is easy to see the advantages and disadvantages of a car.
Last year's New Year's Day, the company organized a self-driving tour - picnic team building activities, of which there are two Teslas, a BYD Han, the other for fuel vehicles, the original picnic is a very happy thing, did not want to be finally corrupted by new energy vehicles, take the fun, defeated, have to say that the gap between Tesla and BYD is still very obvious.
According to the planned route, the one-way self-driving tour is about 330 kilometers, 90% are high-speed, BYD Han has a range of 550 kilometers, Model3 has a range of 468 kilometers, when the 3 new energy owners have made a charging plan, according to past experience, Model3 must need to charge once in the middle, and BYD Han can not be recharged, after all, they have not run so far, depending on the situation.
Before leaving, my colleagues and I changed cars, all wanting to experience who was better. The weather is relatively cold, the outdoor is only about three or four degrees, the whole process of heating and air conditioning, running about 250 kilometers, the remaining endurance of the model3 is about 70 kilometers, need to enter the service area to charge, so they all followed into the service area, at this time Han EV remaining about 180 kilometers.
The same road conditions, the first half of the BYD Han endurance discount rate is about 6.7 discount, Tesla Model 3 endurance discount rate of about 5.8% off, although "high speed + low temperature + warm air conditioning" is the "nemesis" of pure electric vehicles, but the discount rate is also too high, it seems that the official battery "virtual standard" of the two models is still very serious. However, bydir Han's discount rate is significantly lower than that of Model 3, about a difference of nearly 10%.
In the event of holidays, the service area waiting for charging of pure electric vehicle owners there are about 10, in addition to the broken charging pile, can support fast charging pile is relatively small, slow charging and too slow, had to wait in line, BYD Han EV charge to 80% of the approximately half an hour or so, and Model 3 almost took 70 minutes, charging time is almost more than 2 times that of BYD.
It is said that Tesla intelligent assisted driving is very cattle, so I opened automatic assisted driving in some road conditions, there is really no comparison and no harm, in many details the gap between the two cars is obvious.
On the highway I set up an adaptive cruise driving, halfway with the car encountered the front car stepped on the brakes, according to the past Han EV point of view, at this time the active brake deceleration is very rapid, sitting in the car obviously feel the feeling of heavy braking, the amplitude of the nod when braking is also slightly larger, and Tesla in the face of this situation The brake is more linear, there is no Han EV's sense of abruptness, the nod amplitude is small, and the comfort is still good.
Encountering a section of the road with a large curve, Tesla does not need to manually intervene to operate the steering wheel, and can still automatically complete the turn, and BYD Han in the corner after entering the corner, the turning radius is obviously larger, sometimes look like it is going to run to the side of the road, at this time the car machine system prompts the need for human intervention to operate the steering wheel.
From the actual driving experience, in multiple driving scenarios, Tesla automatic assistance is more accurate, more stable, and seems to be more intelligent. Regarding assisted driving, this is also Tesla's long-noticed technology, thanks to the self-developed Autopilot intelligent driving assistance system, which has been at a high level in the field of pure electric vehicles.
From the driving experience, the gap between BYD Han and Model3 does not seem to be obvious, but a comprehensive comparison of the three-electric system, comfort, appearance, interior, space, cost performance and other aspects will find that the gap between the two cars is very large.
1. Compare the three-electric system
Tesla in addition to the electronic control system, assisted driving is independent research and development, batteries, motors are purchased or cooperative research and development, and BYD motors, batteries, electronic controls, etc. are all independent research and development, of which batteries are particularly important for a pure electric vehicle.
The same is the lithium iron phosphate battery, BYD Han equipped with a blade battery, it is BYD based on lithium iron phosphate battery technology optimization and upgrading, using high and low temperature control, heat insulation and other new technologies, battery energy density is high, comprehensive endurance significantly improved.
In addition, in the battery safety test environment such as overcharge and needle punch, BYD blade battery stability is better and the safety is relatively high.
2. Compare power performance
The same as a single motor drive, bydir and Tesla motor power, peak torque between the gap is very small, from the data point of view, Tesla is slightly better, but from the daily driving in the power performance is almost no obvious difference.
However, compared with the same price point, Tesla is equipped with a single motor, while BYD Han is equipped with a dual motor, on the power performance, Tesla at this time has no comparison at all.
3. Contrast comfort
Both rear suspension configurations are multi-link independent suspension, the model3 front suspension uses double wishbone independent suspension, ANDIHAN is equipped with the more common McPherson independent suspension. Model3 suspension tuning is a little harder, tending to have more athletic properties, while BYD Han is a little softer.
From the perspective of space, Tesla Model3 positioning medium-sized cars, BYD Han positioning medium and large cars, body size also has advantages over Model 3, when driving the car are relatively quiet, the gap is not large, on the ride alone, Han EV has a slight advantage.
4. Compare the function configuration
At the same price, BYD Han has more functions, especially in terms of passive safety, the advantage is obvious, more rear and knee airbags, 360-degree panoramic images, passive pedestrian protection, reversing side warning and other functions, and Tesla's same configuration, at least need to add more than 20,000.
5. Warranty service
In addition to the basic guarantee, BYD also comes with a lifetime warranty for the first owner of the three electric appliances, and Tesla, like most car companies, implements an 8-year or 160,000-kilometer battery warranty service.
All along, battery life is the focus of attention of car owners, power batteries will continue to decay with the use of car time, to a certain extent directly affect the normal use of cars, at this time must replace the battery, but as far as the current cost of power batteries on the market, the price of replacing new batteries is too high.
At present, 1 kWh of electricity needs about 800-1200 yuan, assuming that a pure electric vehicle battery capacity is 70 kWh of electricity, if you need to replace the battery at your own expense, it will take about 60,000 or 70,000, and I believe that most car owners are not willing to change the battery when they see such a replacement price. Therefore, in terms of warranty, BYD's advantages are obvious.
6, compare the cost performance
At the same price, BYD's main advantage is that the power configuration is higher, the interior, the functions are richer, the space is larger, the battery life is longer, the battery safety is higher, the main disadvantage lies in intelligent auxiliary driving and brand effect, in general, the same price model, BYD Han cost performance is much higher than Tesla Model3.
As for the quality of the whole vehicle, BYD Han currently travels nearly 50,000 kilometers, basically 10,000-13,000 kilometers or so to the 4S shop maintenance once, to put it bluntly, that is, routine inspection, time for a long time the car machine system occasionally appears stuck, black screen, 4S shop upgrade after the problem is solved, in addition to automatic parking, Bluetooth function sometimes does not work, but does not affect driving, everything else is normal.
In fact, whether it is Tesla, BYD or other new car-making forces, many technologies are out in recent years, there will always be immature places, small problems are inevitable, but big problems generally will not have, most of the fuel vehicles are provided with 3 years warranty, and new energy vehicle manufacturers generally provide 6-8 years warranty services.
That is to say, the quality problems of non-human factors within 8 years do not need to worry, and most of the owners have changed their cars in 6-8 years, so now the new car, choose the mainstream brand, the quality does not need to worry.
In short, the real gap between BYD Han and Tesla Model 3 is not in the "three electric system", some owners may feel that BYD has more advantages after seeing the car and test driving, but in the end they bought Tesla, in fact, mainly because of the brand effect and "face" factors.
