The 18th Beijing Auto Show will officially open on April 25, and the highly anticipated new BYD mid-level sedan Qin L will be officially unveiled. Qin L has previously completed the declaration in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and a total of three models have been launched, and the market positioning will be slightly higher than that of Qin PLUS. Automobile culture believes that BYD Qin L has two major highlights, one is the price, a 4S store salesman said that the starting price of Qin L will once again show the strength of "flipping the table"; the other is that Qin L will be the first to use DM5.0 hybrid system, according to the previously exposed news, the new system has a comprehensive cruising range of full fuel and full power or more than 2000km. As soon as the price + ultra-long battery life comes out, it is said that competitors are out, and even BYD's own product sales may be affected by Qin L.
In terms of appearance, Qin L basically continues the family-style design language, and it looks not much different from the Qin series. The large grille is the same as that found on the new Song Pro DM-i, and the interior features a dot-matrix design that gives it a sporty look. The headlight cluster is a new design style, narrow and sharp, which also shows a certain sense of combat.
The side of the body adopts a double waistline design, the overall look is more modest, the door handles are still in the traditional style, and the multi-spoke wheels below are more eye-catching, according to the configuration level, the wheel size is 16/17/18 inches. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Qin L are 4830/1900/1495mm, and the wheelbase is 2790mm.
At the rear of the car, the Qin L is equipped with a "Chinese knot" through-type taillight cluster, which is expected to be well recognizable when lit. The large diffuser shape below is eye-catching, and the chrome trim and fang-like fold line shape above give the rear a strong sporty look.
In the interior part, Qin L continues the family-oriented design language, and has been redesigned compared with Qin PLUS. The overall use of off-white + black double color design, compared to the appearance of the sporty, the interior is more set off the luxury atmosphere, of course, considering the price, the sense of luxury is not strong. It can be seen from the previously exposed real car photos that Qin L is equipped with a large-size embedded LCD instrument and a floating central control screen, and is equipped with a new three-spoke multi-function steering wheel. The central armrest is equipped with a wireless mobile phone charging panel and a crystal stopper. Cut-outs underneath the armrests further extend storage capacity.
In terms of power, the Qin L will be equipped with a new 1.5L engine and drive motor, with a maximum engine power of 74kW/101Ps and an electric motor of 120kW/163Ps, paired with a lithium iron phosphate blade battery, with a battery capacity of 10.8/15.87kWh and a pure electric range of 60/90km respectively. According to previous news, Qin L will be the first to use BYD DM5.0 hybrid system, compared with the previous system, the new system has lower cost, faster mode switching and higher fuel economy, comprehensive range or more than 2000km. For reference, the Qin PLUS DM-i currently has a comprehensive range of 1245km on a full tank and on a full charge.
Although the price of BYD Qin L has not yet been released, but the comprehensive cruising range of 2000km is attractive enough, if its price is really as the Internet news said within 100,000, will you consider it?
