BYD Qin PLUS DM-i went on sale for 105,800 yuan.

On March 8th, the new plug-in hybrid car Qin PLUS DM-i was officially launched. There are four new models with the price range of 105.8-145.8 million yuan.

Compared with the traditional plug-in hybrid with fuel as the main power, Qin PLUS DM-i is equipped with the latest DM-i super hybrid system. The system provides the main power source through high-power motor and high-energy blade battery, and the whole system is mainly electricity, with lower energy consumption and no discount on performance. Taking Qin PLUS DM-i as an example, the acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h is 7.3s, and the fuel consumption is 3.8L/100km.

Qin PLUS DM-i can be regarded as an upgraded model of Qin. The outline of Qin PLUS DM-i is somewhat similar in appearance, but the new car uses a more fashionable DragonFace 2.0 design, which is sharper in the shape of the front face and the front and rear light groups. The front grille has a larger area and a stronger gas field.

The transition between the front face and the side wall of the new car is clear and clear, and the size of the multi-strip aluminum alloy wheel hub is further increased, which looks more sporty. In terms of dimensions, the length, width and height of the new car are 4765/1837/1495mm and the wheelbase is 2718mm respectively.

The latest design style used by Qin PLUS DM-i in the interior, such as the style of IP platform, the shape of air conditioning outlet and the layout of shift lever area, is closer to Han’s, and it looks luxurious and has a good sense of texture.

The full LCD instrument of the new car is relatively small, which shows some driving-related information more simply and directly, such as power, endurance, speed, energy output status and so on.

The rotatable suspended central control large screen is still the core attraction of the car interior, and it is equipped with the latest DiLink intelligent car-machine interaction system, which is rich in expansibility and extremely playable.

In terms of power, Qin PLUS DM-i is divided into two versions: pure electric battery life of 55km and 120km. The 55Km version adopts EHS132 electric hybrid system, with a maximum power of 160kW, an acceleration of 7.9 seconds per 100 km and a comprehensive battery life of 1180km；. The 120km version adopts EHS145 electric hybrid system, with the highest power of 173kW, the acceleration time of 100km of 7.3 seconds, and the comprehensive battery life of 1245km. The fuel consumption of both versions is 3.8L per 100 kilometers in the state of power loss.

The 55Km version of Qin PLUS DM-i is equipped with an 8.3kWh "blade" lithium iron phosphate battery, which supports AC slow charging. The 120km version of Qin PLUS DM-i is equipped with a lithium iron phosphate battery with a total energy of 21.5kWh. In addition to the common AC slow charging, it also adds a DC fast charging function, which is rare in plug-in hybrid vehicles.

Editor’s summary:It is foreseeable that Qin PLUS DM-i should be able to contribute considerable sales in 2021. This model, which is grounded enough in price, rich in configuration and well-balanced in power system, will not only compete in the same level of hybrid and plug-in models, but also grab some markets of 100,000-class traditional fuel sedan.

It is reported that among the three new models equipped with DM-i super hybrid, Qin PLUS DM-i has the highest pre-sale order volume so far.
