How much does the BYD Song Plus DM-i weigh?

[VanGraham]

The Song Plus weighs approximately 1.7 tons. Below are the relevant details: 1. Two versions: It comes with two versions offering pure electric ranges of 51km and 110km. The Song PLUS-DM-i 51km range version achieves a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 8.5s, with a combined fuel consumption as low as 4.4L/100km in a depleted battery state. The 110km version offers a maximum pure electric range of up to 110km, with a full-tank combined range exceeding 1200km. It completes the 0-100km/h acceleration in 7.9s, with a depleted battery fuel consumption of 4.5L/100km. 2. Configuration: The new vehicle comes standard with features including soundproof glass, tire pressure display, 360-degree panoramic imaging, a 12.8-inch rotatable central control screen, DiLink 3.0 system, in-car Bluetooth, a 9-speaker audio system, OTA remote upgrades, rear seat angle adjustment, electric folding and heating/defrosting exterior mirrors, keyless entry/start, mobile NFC key, and rear privacy glass.

As a car enthusiast, I've specifically studied the data of the BYD Song PLUS DM-i, with a curb weight of around 1,800 kg, which is slightly heavier than pure gasoline vehicles. The increased weight enhances vehicle stability, especially when driving on highways—it feels very steady and less prone to swaying. However, the response is a bit slower when turning. The acceleration feels relatively linear, but the hybrid system really helps a lot, keeping fuel consumption under 5 liters. I've test-driven it several times and found that it takes some getting used to the steering wheel feedback. Tire wear is also faster compared to lighter vehicles, so I recommend checking tire pressure monthly. The curb weight affects NVH performance, resulting in less cabin noise and a comfortable ride, making it suitable for long-distance travel.

We bought this car last year, weighing around 1800 kilograms. I feel quite at ease using it daily to shuttle the kids to school. The weight makes its braking more reliable in rainy weather, but parking in tight spots is really challenging, requiring frequent rearview mirror adjustments. The weight also affects fuel economy, with fuel consumption rising to slightly over 6 liters when fully loaded, but thankfully the DM-i system compensates with electric efficiency. Regular maintenance requires attention to tire load capacity, and I rotate them every three months. Driving in the city, it feels reasonably agile in turns, and on the highway, it's as stable as a fortress—kids don't fuss in the back seats. The only downside is some wind noise due to the weight, but it doesn't interfere with conversation.

I've been driving this car for five years, and it weighs around 1800 kg, which is quite suitable for safety-conscious drivers. The weight adds thickness to the body, reducing the sense of shaking during collisions. The braking distance is short, and it doesn't skid in rainy or foggy weather. Once, I had to brake hard to avoid a rear-end collision, and the car's weight helped stabilize the direction without losing control. In terms of handling, the turning radius is slightly large, so you need to slow down in advance when entering narrow alleys. Overall, the comfort level is high, with minimal tire noise. During maintenance, chassis checks are important, but the weight doesn't compromise durability. The range is slightly reduced due to the weight, affecting pure electric mileage, but the hybrid optimization is well-executed, so it doesn't impact daily commuting.

Having been environmentally conscious for years, I understand that the Song PLUS DM-i weighs around 1,800 kg. Although it's slightly heavy, its lightweight design and hybrid technology balance the electric consumption and range, allowing it to run about 55 km on pure electric power. The slight increase in weight affects energy consumption a bit, requiring slightly more frequent charging, but I’m used to traveling light to minimize the impact. Over two years of driving, the combined fuel consumption is 4.5 liters, which is very economical. In terms of safety, the weight enhances stability and improves wind resistance at high speeds. I recommend regular maintenance of the battery system. The weight also gives the car a solid feel, providing a smooth driving experience with minimal vibration.

My best friend often drives this car, which weighs about 1,800 kilograms, and she feels quite secure. It's stable on the highway without any wobbling, especially reassuring for female drivers. The only downside is that parking can be a bit challenging due to its size and weight, requiring patience. The weight affects fuel consumption, keeping it around 5 liters, but it lasts a long time after charging. On one trip, even fully loaded with luggage, there was no sense of drifting—the hybrid advantage compensates for the drawbacks. The weight provides a solid driving experience, with moderate agility in turns, and don't overlook the tire pressure monitoring.
