Can the Song DM use a 7kw charging pile?
2 Answers
The Song DM cannot use a 7kw charging pile. Here are some precautions regarding charging pure electric vehicles: Charging time: Vehicle owners should master the correct charging time. Pure electric vehicles take longer to replenish energy. Taking the JAC iEV6E Sport model as an example, if you choose a home charging pile, it takes nearly 8 hours to fully charge the battery. Choosing a fast charging pile takes about 40 minutes to charge up to 80%. Develop the habit of frequent charging and do not wait until the battery level is too low before charging. Avoid overcharging and over-discharging the battery: Both overcharging and over-discharging will reduce the battery's lifespan. Any product that uses a battery should not be "over-discharged," and pure electric vehicles are no exception. Although the battery pack is designed with a protection system, frequently driving the vehicle until the "red light" comes on will definitely affect the battery pack's lifespan. Also, stop charging immediately once the battery is fully charged.
I've been driving the BYD Song DM for several years, and it can fully utilize a 7 kW charging station—I've personally tested this, and it's quite convenient. The 7 kW power belongs to AC slow charging, which the Song DM's onboard charger generally supports, compatible with Type 2 interface stations. It charges much faster than a regular household socket—usually taking about 6 hours to fully charge at home, and these stations are also common when out and about. Of course, when buying the car, check your model version, as older models might have different charging ports, but newer ones mostly support it. I recommend installing a home charging station for convenience and safety—charging overnight and driving in the morning won’t be a hassle. If the charging station isn’t installed professionally or the wiring is outdated, it might affect efficiency, so it's better to hire a certified company for installation. In short, don’t worry—just use it with confidence.
