How many kilometers can the BYD Tang DM run on a full tank of fuel?
3 Answers
When fully charged and fueled, the BYD Tang DM can run approximately 500-600 kilometers. More details about the BYD Tang DM are as follows: 1. The BYD Tang DM is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. 2. Conventional hybrid vehicles do not require separate charging for the battery, as the engine charges the battery pack during driving. However, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles need separate charging for the battery pack because these hybrids have larger battery packs and more powerful motors. 3. The BYD Tang DM is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, coded BYD487ZQA, with a maximum power of 151 kW, maximum torque of 320 Nm, maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and maximum torque speed ranging from 1750 to 4500 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. 4. The Tang DM adopts a dual-motor configuration, with a total motor power of 290 kW and total torque of 630 Nm. The front motor has a maximum power of 110 kW and maximum torque of 250 Nm, while the rear motor has a maximum power of 180 kW and maximum torque of 380 Nm. The Tang DM uses a ternary lithium battery.
Friends who have driven the BYD Tang DM, I'd like to share my experience: With a full tank, this car typically runs between 700 to 800 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity is about 52 liters, and when driving in hybrid mode, the fuel consumption is relatively low. In the city, the range might drop to around 650 kilometers, while on the highway, it can exceed 800 kilometers. Remember to pay attention to driving habits, such as smooth acceleration and avoiding stomping on the gas pedal, to save some fuel; regularly check tire pressure, as too low pressure increases resistance and reduces range. Using the air conditioning in winter and summer also has a significant impact, and driving more aggressively will deplete the range faster. Overall, the range is quite impressive, making long trips worry-free with fewer fuel stops, and it's great for family outings.
From a technical perspective, how far can the BYD Tang DM travel on a full tank of fuel? With a 52-liter fuel tank and in pure fuel mode (assuming the battery is depleted), the fuel consumption is approximately 6 to 7 liters per 100 kilometers, resulting in a simple calculation of a range of about 770 kilometers. Of course, this is under average driving conditions; during highway cruising, due to lower wind resistance, the range may approach 850 kilometers, while in congested urban areas, fuel consumption spikes and the range decreases. The vehicle's energy recovery system and hybrid optimization play a significant role, recovering braking energy to reduce waste. Maintaining the engine and fuel injectors can keep efficiency high, and don't overlook the impact of battery health on overall efficiency. After all, the plug-in hybrid design intelligently balances fuel and electricity, making it more economical than traditional vehicles.
