Is the BYD e6 a pure electric vehicle?
2 Answers
BYD e6 is a pure electric vehicle. The BYD E6 is a pure electric crossover independently developed by BYD, combining the design concepts of SUVs and MPVs, making it a high-performance crossover. The dimensions of this vehicle are 4560mm in length, 1822mm in width, and 1630mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. The BYD e6 is a single-motor model, with the motor delivering a maximum power of 120kW and a maximum torque of 450Nm. A major highlight of the BYD e6 is its electric drive system, which uses BYD's self-developed and produced ETPOWER iron batteries for both the power battery and the starting battery. These batteries pose no harm to the environment, as all the chemical substances they contain can be decomposed and absorbed by nature in a harmless manner, effectively addressing environmental issues such as secondary recycling. They are truly green and eco-friendly batteries.
I've driven my friend's BYD e6, which is completely pure electric with no gasoline engine at all. It drives exceptionally quiet and smooth, making stop-and-go in the city effortless with quick acceleration that saves time. The range is quite practical, easily covering 300 kilometers on a full charge, though it drains faster on highways with air conditioning on, so it's best to check charging stations in advance. There are many advantages: simple daily maintenance, less wear on the braking system, and significantly cheaper electricity costs compared to refueling, saving a good amount of money each month. Home charging stations are convenient to install, fully charging overnight, and occasionally using public fast chargers can top up half the battery in about half an hour. If considering the second-hand market, pay attention to battery aging; replacing a new battery pack can be somewhat expensive, but overall, it offers high cost performance.
