BYD Qin PLUS has once again become the monthly champion of automobile sales, and sold more than 50,000 vehicles in March 2024. This sales also shows that it has been recognized by the market and consumers. Then, what will be its product strength and cost performance? Is it worth our consumers to buy? Next, we will make an all-round analysis of it.
In terms of price, the price range of BYD Qin PLUS is 7.98-17.98 million yuan, which provides plug-in hybrid electric and pure electric power for our consumers to choose and buy. This price range is quite affordable in the same class, and it is also in line with the car budget of ordinary working class. However, what we are analyzing today is the entry-level model Qin PLUS DM-i 2024 DM-i glory version 55KM leading model, and the official guide price is 79,800 yuan.
In terms of appearance design, the whole vehicle adopts the family classic design language, so that you can know from a distance that this is a BYD model. The front air intake grille has a large area, and the interior is decorated with chrome trim strips, which is also very elegant. It is not only for beauty, but also for cooling the engine, and secondly, it can avoid the wind noise caused by the collision of the front of the car. Although it is an entry-level model, it still provides the functions of LED far and near light source, automatic headlights, headlight height adjustment, headlight delay turn-off and so on, which looks very recognizable.
The whole side of the car looks like a dive, and the sports smell comes out. The body size is 4765/1837/1495mm and the wheelbase is 2718 mm. Compared with A-class cars, it should be competitive. In addition, the tail line is very elegant, with a sense of sight with a small slip back, and the family-style through LED taillights are also integrated into it. The exhaust adopts a hidden design, and the overall look is still very harmonious. The BYD DM-i logo on the lower left of the trunk lid, although the words are relatively small, does not hinder the fact that it is a hybrid model.
As for the chassis, the structure combination of McPherson independent suspension and torsion beam non-independent suspension is adopted. According to our previous test drive of BYD Qin PLUS, its suspension adjustment is hard, and its vibration filtering effect is moderate when it passes through speed bumps and gullies slowly. However, if there are continuous potholes or ups and downs during high-speed driving, the rebound action of suspension will be somewhat slow in the face of high-frequency vibration.
In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4765/1837/1495mm, and the wheelbase is 2718 mm. The experiencer with a height of 178cm adjusts the front seat to the lowest position suitable for driving, and the head space is four fingers, keeping the main driving position unchanged. The experiencer enters the rear row, where the head space is two fingers, the leg space is two fists, and the rear center seat is equipped with a headrest, although the platform is slightly raised.
In terms of seats, the seat padding wrapped in imitation leather is thin, but the wrapping and support are acceptable. The two rows of seats are consistent with the front row, providing air conditioning outlets and dual USB interfaces for the rear row, and the rear row is also equipped with comfort configurations such as central handrails.
In terms of interior, it can be seen that BYD Qin PLUS’s car adopts minimalist design elements, and a large area of soft material is used to wrap the details, supplemented by bright black paint and silver chrome trim, which further enhances the sense of grade in the car. The size of the LCD instrument is relatively pocket-sized, and the recessed design is adopted, but the functionality is sufficient, but the sense of grade is poor.
In terms of configuration, although the experience model is an entry-level model, it still provides rich technical configuration, such as low-speed driving warning, driving mode switching (sports, economy, standard, comfort and snow), energy recovery system, automatic parking, uphill assistance, rear parking radar, cruise control, satellite navigation system, navigation road information display, Bluetooth/car phone, voice recognition control system, dual-zone wake-up recognition, and so on.
In terms of power, it is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 110Ps and a maximum torque of 135N·m, which is matched with an E-CVY continuously variable gearbox. In terms of motor, it adopts a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 180Ps and a maximum torque of 316N·m, while in terms of battery, it provides an 8.32kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack, and the first owner supports unlimited years. The official 0-100km/h acceleration time is 7.9 seconds, the comprehensive fuel consumption of WLTC is 2.17L/100km, and the minimum fuel consumption of state of charge is 4.6L/100km.
Summary of the full text, the above is our comprehensive analysis of BYD Qin PLUS, and I believe everyone should know something about it. Personally, I think BYD Qin PLUS is still worth buying. After all, the self-owned brand models in this price range have no rivals and have high cost performance. Moreover, the fashionable appearance and the interior with full sense of technology can satisfy the aesthetics of young consumers, and it also has spacious seating space, rich technology configuration, good powertrain and high fuel economy.
If you want to buy a plug-in hybrid car with a relatively high comprehensive price within a budget of 100,000 yuan, then you can pay attention to BYD Qin PLUS.
