What topics are the hottest in the car circle this year?
To Ji Guojun said, "oil prices soared" is definitely one of the hottest topics discussed by most riders. Fuel car owners have ridiculed that they can't afford to refuel and can't afford to drive a car.
At this time, pure electric models with innate advantages have become a better choice for buying cars with cars.
With the surge in oil prices and the wave of electrification sweeping, the domestic new energy market has pressed the acceleration button again, of which BYD took the lead in announcing the suspension of fuel vehicles in April, and only produced new energy models in the future.
The data comes from the Multiplication Association▲
According to statistics, BYD's cumulative retail sales in January and April this year 387456, which has become a new energy sales handle.
On the basis of having good sales, BYD still does not forget to continue to improve the competitiveness of products, and constantly innovates, so the new BYD seal, it comes.
The new car not only adopts a new design language, but also uses BYD's latest pure electric platform like Dolphin, and optimizes the battery structure of the whole vehicle.
Then the next Jiguojun will start from the new car, by the way to analyze what black technology BYD uses on this car, let'go~
The car has "fish scales" and a new exterior design
In terms of appearance, seals adopt the same "marine aesthetic" design concept as dolphins, but the new car as a whole is more sporty.
The front of the car adopts the closed design commonly used in pure trams, with the water ripple light strip below and the narrow headlights, making the front of the car look more youthful.

From the side, the overall lines of the new car are relatively sporty, and many marine-related designs are done on the statue: whether it is the "fish gills" on the fenders or the "fish scales" on the D pillar, the overall shape of the new car is more abundant.

In addition, in terms of size, the length, width and height of the seals are 4800/1875/1460 mm, and the wheelbase has reached 2920 mm, and the wheelbase and BYD Han have achieved the same level.
The appearance of the rear of the car is quite high, the through-type light strip line is soothing, and the luminous module is arranged in a dot matrix, which looks very "fishtail" after lighting.

In addition, the new car has a sporty version with a new kit, including a redesigned front bracket, and bright colored trims to make the overall sporty look stronger.
Wrap-around cockpit, classic rotating central control screen
Walking into the car, the first thing that catches your eye is the 10.25-inch full LCD instrument and the 15.6-inch central control rotary screen. Zhongkong has built-in BYD Dlink ecosystem and can support 5G network connection.
In terms of materials, seals use a lot of leather and suede materials in the car, which raises the overall style of the vehicle interior. In addition, through the combination of door panels and instrument lines, the overall cockpit plays a wrap-around effect, further enhancing the driving experience.
In terms of intelligent configuration, the car will also be equipped with 360-degree holographic transparent image, in-car camera, driving recorder, blind spot detection and other functions.
In addition, the new car will also provide ventilation and heating of the front seats, 12-speaker Tanner audio and other configurations according to the model.
Rear-drive/four-drive layout for a maximum range of 700 km
The new car will be BYD's first model to adopt a rear-drive/four-drive layout, coupled with the chassis suspension of the front double wishbones + rear five-link suspension, making the driving texture of the whole vehicle more reliable.
In terms of power configuration, the new car will be available in two different power-tuned rear-drive versions, with a maximum power of 150 kW and 230 kW respectively, and a high-power version of zero hundred accelerated for 5.9 seconds.
Elk test results▲
With the dual motor of the four-wheel drive version, the comprehensive power can reach 390 kilowatts, and the zero hundred acceleration takes only 3.8 seconds.
In addition, the high-end 4WD version will also be equipped with adjustable damping shock absorbers, and the torque output of the front and rear axles will be distributed more precisely and quickly through iTAC technology for better handling.
In terms of endurance, the new car will be equipped with two different capacity blade batteries of 61.4 kilowatts and 82.5 kWh, the CLTC standard endurance can reach 550 kilometers, long endurance up to 700 kilometers, and the four-wheel drive version also has a 650 kilometer endurance performance.
In terms of charging, the new car supports up to 150 kilowatts of tributary fast charging, with a new generation of fast charging blade batteries, 30%-80% fast charging time is within 30 minutes.
The model design is more suitable for sports ▲
And the new car is also equipped with heat pump air conditioning as standard, which is to alleviate the mileage anxiety of pure tram users in the north.
However, it is a pity that the current intelligent driving of the new car does not reveal much information, and jiguojun will continue to pay attention to it in the future, and today it is still important to analyze the latest technology carried by dolphins.
BYD this CTB technology, the whole process should actually be called battery body integration technology, the specific plan is to further integrate the battery cover and the body floor, from the original battery pack "sandwich" structure, into the vehicle "sandwich" structure.
At this time, the role of the power battery is transformed, which is both an energy body and a structural part, which can share the force for the collision of the whole vehicle.

So some friends have to ask, the battery itself can not be said to be 100% safe, but also to participate in the force, BYD is demented? In this place, OFD certainly took into account. For the safety of the battery pack, the internal structure adopts a honeycomb aluminum structure.
Honeycomb structure model schematic▲
The originally relatively safe blade battery, coupled with the tightly arranged honeycomb structure, naturally also makes the overall strength of the battery pack rise a notch.
At the press conference, the new battery pack also successfully passed the 50-ton heavy truck crushing test, which also confirmed the safety of the new battery pack from the side.
Heavy truck crush test ▲
So friends who often pay attention to the battery must have found that this battery body integration technology is somewhat familiar?
Yes, in fact, not only BYD, the zero-run C01 a few days ago also released a similar technology, that is, CTC technology. In fact, the two technologies have the same destination, both by eliminating one of the covers of the battery, to achieve a higher degree of integration.
BYD CTB scheme dynamic schematic ▲
Like the Tesla 4680 program we are familiar with and BYD's CTB solution, they all save the lower cover of the battery pack, while the zero run C01 is the one that omits the upper cover of the battery.

The advantage of this is to save costs, and the second is to improve the utilization of vehicle space; but because of the integrated design, the maintenance cost of the vehicle will increase, and in general, there are advantages and disadvantages.
Having said all that, which cars are the opponents of the BYD Dolphins?
According to the custom, Jiguojun first said the price, so that it is good to lock in the contrast range.
Combined with the price and the sport positioning of the vehicle, Jiguojun probably locked the following cars, for details, see the table below.
In fact, it is not difficult to see that there are not few pure electric models in the domestic market, so Jiguojun feels that the direct opponents of SEALs will be Xiaopeng P7 and Tesla Model 3, as well as zero-run C01.
Model 3 now the price of two-wheel drive is 280,000, compared to the SEAL 262,800 long endurance after-drive version, the endurance of 700 kilometers, longer than tesla module 3's 556 kilometers, 100 kilometers acceleration of 5.9 seconds and Tesla's 6.1 seconds almost, but also 0.2 seconds faster.
Tesla Model 3 ▲
The price of the model 3 four-wheel drive high version is 368,000, the endurance is 675 kilometers, which is 25 kilometers more than the 650 kilometers of the seal four-wheel drive top, the acceleration of Tesla four-wheel drive is 3.3 seconds, the seal is 3.8 seconds, slower than 0.5 seconds, and the price of the seal is 289,800.
Of course, some friends will also feel that the user group of seals will slightly coincide with BYD Han, which feels like Buick's Regal and LaCrosse, in fact, it is still quite clear.
BYD Khan ▲
BYD Han is 214,800 yuan, but this is the DM-i plug-and-mix version, and pure electricity is more expensive than plug-and-mix. So the pricing of seals should be expected. But there were really no surprises.
The 2022 Han EV entry level needs 269,800, while the seal only needs to be in its early 200,000s, which is obviously more fragrant in terms of cost performance; in addition, in terms of appearance and interior design, the overall Han is more mature and stable, more executive-level sedan flavor, and seals are younger and sportier.
As for compared to the Xiaopeng P7, the intelligent configuration of the seal is still unclear, but from the perspective of endurance and size and power, the seal is slightly better; as for the zero-run C01, the cost performance is naturally a slight loss.
Zero Run C01 ▲
Therefore, on the whole, Jiguojun believes that BYD's seal itself is still relatively strong.
Regarding BYD seals, Jiguojun summarized the following points
- After getting used to BYD's previous dragon face design, the overall design of the new seal is more youthful and more acceptable to the younger generation.
- The entry-level version of the new car is more family-oriented, with a slightly less sporty atmosphere, but the price is lower than that of competitors.
- Intelligent driver assistance information is not yet clear, from BYD's previous products to infer, it is estimated that it is difficult to take advantage of this aspect.
So on the whole, if you don't pursue high-end assisted driving, but just want to buy a younger family pure tram, then seals are indeed a good choice.
