At present, the "volume" of the automobile market is not only reflected in the pricing level, but also in the product definition and technology update.

On May 28, BYD, a leader in new energy vehicles, released the latest plug-in hybrid technology - the fifth-generation DM-i dual-mode hybrid system, which continues to refresh and reduce vehicle fuel consumption.

It is reported that the system can make the engine thermal efficiency reach 46.06%, fuel consumption of 2.9L per 100 kilometers, and a comprehensive range of 2,100 kilometers.

At the press conference, models equipped with the above-mentioned hybrid technology, Qin L DM-i and Seal 06 DM-i, were officially unveiled. It is worth mentioning that the two models are priced at the same price range, with a price range of 99,800 yuan to 139,800 yuan.

Wang Chuanfu, chairman and president of BYD Co., Ltd., said that China's auto industry has been on top of the world in plug-in hybrid technology.

According to the data, in 2023, the sales of plug-in hybrid models in the Chinese market will reach 2.804 million units, a year-on-year increase of 84.7%, significantly exceeding the sales growth rate of pure electric vehicles.

"Now for every four plug-in hybrid models sold in the world, three are from Chinese brands." At the press conference, Wang Chuanfu proudly said that the most advanced plug-in hybrid technology is in China.

The moment when the global plug-in is entering China

Ten years ago, plug-in hybrid technology was almost a no-man's land, and only BYD was fully invested. After ten years of continuous research and development, BYD's plug-in hybrid technology continues to be updated. At the same time, SAIC and GAC have also followed up the plug-in hybrid route.

Wang Chuanfu recalled that he thought that BYD's plug-in hybrid technology could usher in a highlight moment in 2018, but the fact is the opposite, consumers do not buy it, and the plug-in hybrid technology route has even reached the time of "life and death", and even BYD has some internal disagreements.

"But I just have a kind of strength in my heart that doesn't admit defeat." Wang Chuanfu said that if BYD gives up, then China's plug-in hybrid technology may have no tomorrow. Until 2021, the birth of BYD's fourth-generation DM-i brought the fuel consumption of Chinese brand vehicles into the "3-liter era" and achieved "the same price of oil and electricity".

It is with this generation of plug-in hybrid technology that BYD's plug-in hybrid models have achieved best-selling. According to the data, in 2023, BYD will sell a total of 3,024,400 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 62.30%, a large part of which is contributed by plug-in hybrid models.

Wang Chuanfu said that at present, China's plug-in hybrid market is no longer a "no-man's land", Changan, SAIC, Chery, Geely, Great Wall, etc. have launched their own plug-in hybrid technology, Chinese brand plug-in hybrid models have exceeded 100, and various car companies have shown a trend of chasing me and a hundred flowers blooming. In the international market, the myth of hybrids dominated by Japanese manufacturers has been completely shattered by Chinese brands.

"It should be said that the global plug-in has entered the Chinese moment." Wang Chuanfu said that now global car companies are paying attention to China's car hybrid technology and have followed up.

The 2000 km endurance model is coming!

With the release of BYD's fifth-generation DM-i dual-mode hybrid system, models equipped with corresponding technologies were also unveiled and launched at the same time.

Wang Chuanfu said that BYD's fifth-generation DM-i dual-mode hybrid system is the world's best plug-in hybrid system, with an engine thermal efficiency of 46.06%, a fuel consumption of 2.9L per 100 kilometers, and a comprehensive range of 2,100 kilometers.

Yang Dongsheng, President of BYD Product Planning and Automotive New Technology Research Institute, revealed that BYD's rapid improvement in hybrid technology has benefited from BYD's self-research and development of the whole industry chain over the years, and then realized the independent and controllable hybrid core technology.

"The fifth-generation DM-i dual-mode hybrid system is the result of BYD's ultimate innovation." Yang Dongsheng said that taking the improvement of engine thermal efficiency as an example, BYD's fifth-generation DM-i dual-mode hybrid system has achieved 46.06%, which has set a new record for the world's mass-produced gasoline engines.

At the press conference, BYD also officially launched models equipped with the above-mentioned hybrid technology - Qin L DM-i and Seal 06 DM-i. Both models have a range of more than 2,100 kilometers in actual testing, and even reach more than 2,300 kilometers.
