In recent years, although the field of pure electric vehicles has made great progress, it has also been recognized by many consumers who value the cost of car use, but the pain of battery life has also discouraged some user groups. In this way, it can be said that plug-in hybrid vehicles have brought opportunities. The following small series takes BYD Tang (parameter picture) DM- i as an example, and deeply analyzes the advantages of plug-in hybrid vehicles with you. What is the specific performance? Let’s take a look!

The 2021 BYD Tang DM-i on sale is divided into two versions: the 112KM distinguished model and the 112KM distinguished model, and the official guide price remains between 205,800 and 222,800 yuan. This test drive model: 2021 DM-i 1.5T 112KM distinguished model, with a price of 222,800.

For BYD Tang DM-i’s exterior design, after several optimization changes, the overall texture creation is quite good. The exquisite LED matrix headlamp combination makes it conform to the positioning and identity of the family flagship model.

On the side of the car body, the smooth and dynamic line design makes this BYD Tang DM-i have a sense of sight of a coupe SUV. The hidden B/C/D column and chrome-plated decorative strips are decorated with appropriate benefits, which also greatly enhances the side face value. This test drive model adopts 20-inch two-color five-spoke rim shape, which is consistent with the dynamic design theme of the side. On the design style and details of BYD Tang DM-i, there is basically no slot to speak of, which is more appetizing to mainstream consumers.

As for the rear part, BYD Tang DM-i is also a portrayal of dynamic fashion. The combination of penetrating taillights symbolized by BYD has high recognition after lighting at night. In addition, the thicker lower enclosure design and silver-white guard board also give this BYD Tang DM-i a hard-core side.

Turn around and sit in the car of BYD Tang DM-i, in which the layout of control may be familiar to everyone and the family style is obvious. The two-color steering wheel with suspension design and the 15.6-inch central control display screen with adaptive rotation have become the plus items of the interior cockpit. And in terms of interior materials, BYD Tang DM-i also has sufficient sincerity. In addition to covering the center console with a large area of soft materials, suede and piano paint are added to embellish the details, highlighting a strong high-end luxury atmosphere.

The full LCD dashboard is 12.3 inches in size. According to personal experience, the display effect is more delicate, and the driving information is more comprehensive. The 15.6-inch central control display screen has built-in DiLink 3.0 intelligent network connection system, and the UI design is relatively simple, the operation is relatively simple, and there is nothing wrong with the smoothness and sensitivity of the car. In addition, BYD Tang DM-i, which doesn’t take the usual road, also provides a K-song function, which can sing a song anytime and anywhere, and its playability is quite good.

In terms of seating space, BYD Tang DM-i adopts the conventional 7-seat layout. Thanks to the wheelbase of 2820mm, it has a spacious interior seating space. When the seat in the second row is adjusted to the front, there are more than two punches in the leg space. Even when it is fully loaded, sitting in the third row will not feel depressed and cramped. The interior of the trunk is relatively regular. When the rear two rows of seats are laid down, two adult males can easily lie down, and the carrying capacity is also well guaranteed.

In the power part, BYD Tang DM-i is equipped with a 1.5T engine, and the motor adopts a front-mounted single permanent magnet synchronous motor. The 21.5kWh lithium iron carbonate battery pack can provide a pure electric cruising range of 112KM. Byd Tang DM-i can be divided into various driving modes, which can be better applied to different car scenes. Although the acceleration of 8.5 seconds is not top-notch, it is not a problem to meet daily needs. The comprehensive fuel consumption under NEDC working condition is 5.5L/100km, and the fuel economy performance is quite excellent.

In terms of chassis suspension, BYD Tang DM-i is equipped with a front McPherson+rear multi-link independent suspension combination, which can be better resolved when Lu Yu bumps slightly, and it feels like riding on the ground when sitting in the car. When encountering a large potholed road surface, the shock absorption and filtration are also in place, and it will not be transferred to the car to shake too much.

On the whole, in the domestic new energy market, BYD belongs to the first-class independent brand, and many of its models have withstood the test of the market, including BYD Tang DM-i, the protagonist of this paper. The dynamic and exquisite appearance, luxurious interior without losing the sense of technology, coupled with relatively excellent mechanical quality, make it a reliable plug-in hybrid medium-sized SUV. In my opinion, if your car purchase budget is controlled within 250,000, and an SUV with strong practicality, good passability and low car cost is a hard requirement, BYD Tang DM-i is still more suitable.
