BYD Tang DM as a plug-in hybrid Internet red model has also been recognized by many consumers, ranking in the top ten with 3833 new energy sales in April. There may be a reason for the policy support for such a strong performance, but it is undeniable that it has excellent product strength. Next, we will bring you the 2018 Tang DM 2.0T full-time four-wheel drive Intelligent Linkage 7-seat test drive experience.
Dual power unit 2.0T engine + two permanent magnet synchronous motors
A major core of the car is the power system, unlike the single power module of fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles, Tang DM uses two sets of power units. The 2.0T engine codenamed BYD487ZQA has a maximum power of 151 kW and a maximum torque of 320 N·m, and two permanent magnet synchronous motors with a combined maximum power of 290 kW and a maximum torque of 630 N·m. These two permanent magnet synchronous motors also form the electric four-wheel drive of the vehicle.
Matching the power unit is the 6DCT gearbox, although the dual-clutch transmission has been criticized by some people, but it is a perfect match with the plug-in hybrid model. Under the low speed of the plug-in hybrid car, the electric drive is the mainstay, which avoids the frequent shifting of the dual clutch at low speed and causes overheating, and the advantages of the rapid and fuel saving of the dual clutch can be fully displayed.
The battery pack is available in two versions with capacities of 19.96kWh and 23.97kWh, with a range of 81km and 100km. Our test drive vehicle has a battery pack capacity of 23.97 kWh.
Any friend who plays with cars or knows a little about modifications will not be unfamiliar with Brembo's name, the importance of braking does not need to be repeated, and since 1975, Ferrari has used Brembo braking system in its F1 cars, and it is no exaggeration to say that Brembo is the Rolex of brake systems. We measured the braking distance of the Tang DM at 38 meters, so it is not easy for the car to control the braking distance at 38 meters, and it is not easy to know that the braking distance of the benchmark model Highlander of the medium-sized SUV is about 43 meters. In addition to the credit of the brake system, this is also inseparable from the optional 265/40 R22 wheels and high-performance horse tires, but privately think that the 255/50 R20 standard wheels are more suitable for daily use, and the priority of the 5000 yuan optional is not too high.
