How many years can the BYD Qin Plus-DMI last?
2 Answers
The BYD Qin Plus-DMI with a pure electric range of 55 kilometers can last for 10-15 years. The version with a pure electric range of 120 kilometers can last for 20-30 years. Below is an introduction to relevant information about BYD: 1. Brand History: BYD Company Limited was founded in 1995, starting with a team of just over 20 people. By 2003, it had grown into the world's second-largest rechargeable battery manufacturer and established BYD Auto in the same year. Starting as a battery manufacturer, BYD was essentially a 'newcomer' when it came to making cars. However, leveraging its 'independent intellectual property rights' and the acquisition of Qinchuan Auto, BYD gained a first-mover advantage over other newcomers. 2. Brand Introduction: BYD Auto adheres to a development path of independent research, production, and branding, committed to creating truly affordable and high-quality vehicles for the public. The product designs incorporate advanced international trends while aligning with the aesthetic concepts of Chinese culture.
I've been driving the BYD Qin Plus DM-i for over two years now, and I believe with proper maintenance, it can easily last 12 to 15 years. The key is not to neglect the maintenance intervals. For example, I change the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers and check the cooling system and battery health. Hybrid car batteries are afraid of long-term low charge, so don't let the battery level drop too low when parked. The DM-i technology in this car is quite reliable; my friend's older model has been running well for almost 10 years, only needing brake pads and tires replaced. Just start it slowly when it's cold in winter. Regular wheel alignment and transmission checks are also crucial to prevent minor issues from turning into major problems. In short, the lifespan depends entirely on how you drive and maintain it.
