How Long Does It Take to Charge the BYD Tang?
2 Answers
If the BYD Tang is charged using a household socket, it generally takes around 12 hours. If a charging pile is used, it takes approximately 5 hours. The BYD Tang is a mid-size SUV launched by BYD, with dimensions of 4870mm in length, 1940mm in width, and 1720mm in height, a wheelbase of 2820mm, a fuel tank capacity of 68 liters, and a curb weight of 1895kg. The BYD Tang is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 192PS, a maximum power of 141kW, and a maximum torque of 320Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
I've been driving a BYD Tang for several years, and the charging time mainly depends on the method used. If using a home slow-charging pile, it takes about 5 to 8 hours to charge from empty to full. It's best to charge overnight—wake up to a full battery, perfect for daily commutes. If using a public fast-charging station, like at a highway rest area, it only takes 30 to 40 minutes to go from 20% to 80%, saving time and being convenient. However, avoid using fast charging every day, as it can wear out the battery faster. If the battery capacity is large, the charging time may be slightly longer. Additionally, charging slows down in very cold or hot weather, so it's best to charge in a garage or shaded area. I recommend getting a home charging pile when buying the car—it's cost-effective and hassle-free, requiring only two or three charges per week. Use fast charging mainly for long trips. Keep an eye on the charging progress displayed on the car's system, but don't stress too much; it automatically stops when full, which is quite safe.
