As the first SUV model equipped with the DM-i super hybrid technology, the new vehicle adopts the Xiaoyun plug-in hybrid dedicated 1.5L high-efficiency engine matched with the EHS hybrid system, with a comprehensive power of 173kW. The 110km version can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 7.9s. The new vehicle is mainly driven by electricity and comes in two range versions, with a comprehensive range of up to 1200 kilometers. The 51KM version is equipped with an 8.3kWh DM-i super hybrid dedicated power blade battery, with a low fuel consumption of 4.4L/100km when the battery is depleted. The 110KM version, with a battery capacity of 18.3kWh, offers an ultra-long range, making it more suitable for use as a pure electric vehicle, and supports 18kW DC fast charging. The pure electric range test of the BYD Song PLUS DM-i after a full charge. During the test, the air conditioning was set to 25°C with A/C on, the energy feedback intensity was set to "higher," and the EV+ECO mode was used throughout. At an average speed of about 32km/h, after driving 105.5 kilometers, the battery's remaining charge was 25% (the displayed pure electric range was 16 kilometers remaining), at which point the system automatically switched to HEV driving mode. By pressing and holding the EV mode button for about 2 seconds, the system could be forced to switch back to EV mode to continue driving. After another 0.5 hours of driving, the battery's remaining charge was 15%, the average speed was still 32km/h, and the additional distance covered was 17.6 kilometers. At this point, its total pure electric driving range had reached 123.1 kilometers, significantly exceeding the officially announced 110km pure electric range. When the BYD Song PLUS DM-i's battery level dropped to 10% (the displayed pure electric range was 0 kilometers), the system finally automatically switched to HEV mode, and the engine began to intervene for charging. At this point, its pure electric driving range had reached 131.1 kilometers, with an average speed of 32km/h throughout the journey.
