In the first half of this year, when most automobile manufacturers were affected by the epidemic and the market performance was dismal, BYD maintained a fairly good sales level, and it was particularly prominent in the market. The reason is inseparable from its unswerving concept of new energy car manufacturing, and more importantly, BYD's products are not only leading in new energy technology, but also never ambitious, and its product positioning and price are more close to the people. After all, who wouldn't want to own a cost-effective, value-for-money car?
BYD's new marine series is divided into two branches, the biology department and the warship department, the biological department is mainly built on the e-platform 3.0 technology to create pure electric models, seals, dolphins have been listed; The warship is mainly DM-i hybrid, and its first model, which is also the first sedan of Ocean Network, is today's protagonist destroyer 05.
As the first sedan of Ocean Network, the Destroyer 05 is based on BYD's "marine aesthetics" design concept, although it is still the positioning of A+ class family cars, but the positioning and configuration are higher than all BYD's current compact cars, compared with previous products, he shows the attributes of technology, refinement, advanced and young products. And his price range of 11.98-155,800 yuan is very close to the people, and the DM-i super hybrid of Hybrid Light also allows him to reduce the cost of the car to a very low level, which is definitely a compact family car with excellent value for money.
The design based on the new "marine aesthetic" is indeed different from the previous style, especially in the front part, the dot matrix boundless front grille is inspired by the ripples of the waves, through the teardrop-shaped dot matrix and staggered arrangement of decorative horizontal strips, combined with the longitudinal air deflectors on both sides of the front of the car, further stretching the visual width of the vehicle. The headlights of the Xinghui battleship use LED light sources, a chrome strip above connects it with the through-type daytime running lights, the line of the front bumper is also relatively sharp, and the entire front layer is slightly complicated, but the momentum of the combat style is highlighted, and there is a good sense of refinement.
The side and rear of the car look more familiar, is a typical streamlined design and back style, the rear is more full and layered, the through-type taillights echo the headlights, also adopt a blackened treatment, the body also adopts a new style of black and silver 17-inch rims, these details combined with his low-lying posture, making him look more dynamic.
The marine aesthetic from the outside to the inside brings a completely new interior design to the Destroyer 05. The minimalist lines naturally extend from the center console to the sides, and then become curves, like the rhythm of the waves. Two floating screens make the space more three-dimensional, and the top layer of the center console is made of soft materials, which are not only clearly layered downwards, but also rich in black, gray and pink tones. The front seats use integrated sports seats, which not only support the body well and wrap them in place, but also black and white accents with pink stitching, which together with the central console creates a sophisticated and fashionable atmosphere, which should be liked by young people.
The two floating screens in the car are still more eye-catching, the front of the steering wheel is an 8.8-inch LCD instrument, the light background and interface design make it look simple and refreshing, but the information is still relatively clear and easy to read. The large 15.6-inch PAD in the middle that can rotate horizontally and vertically is also not uncommon in BYD models, but it is still surprising to be equipped in this class of cars. His car machine adopts BYD's new DiLink 5G intelligent network system, and BYD continues to upgrade and innovate on the Di platform, making his functions and content very rich, and the functions, entertainment and control that can be operated on the screen are enough for the owner to study for a while.
Of course, want to operate not complicated and voice control, BYD's voice interaction ability we have seen, in addition to fast response, strong semantic recognition and other characteristics, controllable functions are also very rich, he takes care of people is still very thoughtful, for the traditional car owners who are not accustomed to using voice and operating the screen, the hollow knob shift platform panel also has many commonly used physical buttons, driving mode, air conditioning switch, volume adjustment, etc. can be operated.
There are a lot of storage compartments in the car, which reflects his practicality, and in terms of seating space, the wheelbase of 2718 mm gives him a spacious rear space, headroom is not oppressive, and the length of the cushions in the rear seats. The softness of the cushion backrest and the angle of the backrest are ideal, ensuring a comfortable rear seat. From the perspective of the depth of the luggage compartment, the luggage space is not small, the rear seat backrest can be opened and reversed, and from the practical point of view of space storage, he is also the more outstanding in the compact family car.
In terms of power, the destroyer 05 still adopts BYD's relatively mature DM-i super hybrid system, which is composed of a 1.5L high-efficiency engine for Xiaoyun-plug-in hybrid, an EHS electric hybrid system, and a power-type blade battery. As we introduced before, this super hybrid system has a relatively mature operation mode, making the thermal efficiency of the engine as high as 43.04%, and has outstanding performance in quiet, fuel saving and long endurance, showing the five core advantages of this system "fast, saving, quiet, smooth and green". In EV pure electric mode, there are two versions with a range of 55 km and 120 km; In HEV hybrid mode, in most cases, the engine generates electricity to drive the vehicle. When accelerating or cruising at high speeds, the engine and electric motor are generated at the same time or the engine drives the vehicle directly.
We test drove a 120-kilometer all-electric model with a system power of 197 hp and 325 Nm of torque. When fully charged, the power performance is very direct like the acceleration response of the electric vehicle, and the noise inside the car is very low. Under different working conditions, the engine intervention is not obtrusive, the power connection is very smooth, and his zero to 100 kilometers acceleration is 7.3 seconds, which is another excellent level in the same class of family cars.
His handling is also surprising when driving, the steering power is adjusted to sport mode, and the tight steering force will give you a lot of confidence and the pointing is very precise. The chassis tuning is like a European car, thick and solid, and the overall sense of the vehicle is also strong when driving passionately, and the control is crisp and neat, which makes the driver very confident. Of course, driving confidence also comes from a sense of security, and the destroyer 05 is equipped with BYD's DiPilot intelligent driving assistance system, which has rich active safety assistance functions, allowing the vehicle to reach the level of L2 automatic driving.
Speaking of preferability, consumers may value "saving" when choosing hybrid models, that is, fuel saving, low car costs, and oil price fluctuations have also scared car owners. As a plug-in hybrid model, the Destroyer 05 not only has no charging anxiety, but also has the characteristics of fuel saving that allows him to have a long cruising range. During our test drive, we deliberately looked at the fuel consumption performance, the feed state in the city daily driving 100 kilometers less than 4 liters, high-speed driving 100 kilometers 4 liters, and after dropping a block of fuel shows that the endurance is more than 900 kilometers, it seems that driving thousands of kilometers under full fuel and electricity is not a problem, really saving, which is a convenience and an affordability for consumers.
After talking about the destroyer 05, look at his price of 11.98-155,800 yuan, and find that BYD's super hybrid has brought another value-for-money and practical model to the market. And compared with the same level of the brand, his design is younger, the configuration is richer, even compared with the same level of models in the market, such as 15.6-inch large screen, ambient lights, shipboard speakers, mobile phone intelligent applications, L2 level automatic driving, etc., are rare in this level of models, such competitiveness absolutely has explosive potential. And in the whole series of models, pure electric range of 55 kilometers and 120 kilometers of the model loss of fuel consumption is the same, and for most plug-in hybrid owners, the price of more advantageous 55 kilometers endurance model is more practical, of which the luxury version of the model priced at 129,800 yuan, than the entry version has more LCD instruments, sunroof and other practical functions, than the premium version less than a set of uncommonly used automatic driving assistance functions, from the perspective of optimization, why spend more, this model is worth recommending.
