Now, tang, which has been overhauled in the medium term, not only has zero fuel consumption, but also increased its endurance to 700km (two-wheel drive) and 635km (four-wheel drive) in CLTC conditions. So in addition to the substantial improvement in endurance, what are the highlights of the 2022 BYD Tang EV? How does the actual handling feel and performance perform?
Obviously, such a level of power, in the previous era of fuel vehicles, you have to spend a lot of money to get, such as bmw X3M thunder version, landing close to a million. Today, you can have it at a third cost.
Tang EV is indeed fierce in driving, in the sport mode, a deep foot on the accelerator, the whole person is pressed on the back of the chair, accompanied by a violent feeling of suffocation, the speed instantly soared to an illegal number.
Electric cars do not have any shift logic for you to play, they are actually very similar in driving, fast and smooth, which is what most people like. In fact, the use of motors to drive vehicles is the ideal solution, but in the past battery technology is not good, only to force European and American manufacturers to painstakingly study the internal combustion engine, but also derived a large number of high-performance modification brands.
Now, battery technology is in line, and battery technology has developed so rapidly in the past decade, which is driven by "battery professionals" such as BYD. "Blade battery" is a major achievement of BYD's technology accumulation in the past 20 years, anti-extrusion, high temperature resistance, anti-overcharge, and also passed the needle punch test. On the new Tang EV, the capacity of these "blades" has reached 108.8kWh, and it can also achieve 170kW high-power DC fast charging.
We roughly tested it during the test drive, and after driving 100.4km, the endurance of the meter dropped by 171km, and the average power consumption of the meter was 25kWh. It is estimated that the real endurance of this new Tang EV four-wheel drive version is about 450km.
The battery is very large and safe, but it has to be said that this thick battery pack is placed under the car, so that its inner floor is very high, and it needs to raise its legs high to get on the car; at the same time, the ground clearance is relatively small, so the whole car has limited passability, and is not suitable for off-road, and the city's big straights are nostalgic for a second.
In terms of steering, the feedback force difference between comfort and sport modes is not large, but when moving the car at low speed, you will feel that the comfort mode will be slightly lighter. Its steering feel is electronically obvious, but the texture is good. In addition, the steering wheel has a small virtual position, the sensitivity is not very high, for this large size and large center of gravity SUV, this adjustment is actually more conducive to high-speed driving stability, not to let the hand inadvertently some slight movements affect the driving trajectory, long-distance driving does not have to be tight hands all the time.
Finally, about its brake foot feeling, it must be complained that its comfort and movement mode are still not much different, the foot feeling is very soft, and the first half of the step is almost no reaction. When you find that it is not responding, the car is still moving forward, so it is forced to step deeply, so it becomes a sharp brake.
0-100km/h acceleration test
Although its torque is very strong, but the starting moment did not appear in the expected tire scratching phenomenon, on the one hand, the electric car can not use the speed of the way to eject the start, on the other hand, the four-wheel drive makes its starting action very stable.
Do not underestimate the comprehensive torque of 680 Nm, in the whole acceleration process, the feeling of pushing back is very strong, starting the floor electricity, the head appears a strong sense of vertigo for about 2 seconds. From the chart, we can see that it maintains an acceleration of more than 0.6g before 65km/h, which shows the high power level.
100km/h-0 brake test
The Don EV is equipped with a Brembo brake system, and the four 265mm wide tires also provide enough grip, but the road surface is not dry enough to exert its strongest braking ability, so the test results do not represent its true level.
However, we can still feel it during the test, its front suspension support is more sufficient, and the middle battery layout makes the weight distribution between the front and rear of the body more even, so the posture is more relaxed when braking at full force.
Judging from the test curve, Tang EV's acceleration is around -0.9g during full braking, and such a braking force level does not match its hardware conditions. The wet and slippery ground still has a relatively large impact on its braking performance, so the comparison with competitors is also for reference only.
Noise test
In the noise test link, in the static state, Tang EV benefited from the front row of soundproof glass, measured the noise value of the car is only 35.6 decibels, such a performance is relatively excellent even in the pure electric model, the external environmental noise isolation is in place, close the window, you can enjoy the quiet world in the car, you can also enjoy the high-fidelity lossless music played by Danna audio.
When the vehicle is driven, the in-car noise values measured at the three speeds of 60km/h, 90km/h and 120km/h are 53.6 decibels, 59.1 decibels and 64.7 decibels, respectively, and this performance is more general. Although it is a pure electric model, it has no engine noise and is also equipped with soundproof glass, but the tire noise is still presented through physical transmission.
Static reviews
The changes in the appearance of the new Tang EV are focused on the front face, the previous large-mouth grille is eliminated, and the closed design with low wind resistance is used together with the wheel hub, and the color of "Aurora Blue" is added. Simply put, the whole car looks more "new energy".
