Is the BYD Han a C-Class car?
2 Answers
The BYD Han is a C-Class sedan. BYD Han Pure Electric Version: All Han EV models are equipped with Blade Batteries. The long-range version tested comes with a 76.9kWh battery pack, achieving a range of 605km. Additionally, all models support fast charging in 0.42 hours. In practical testing, a range of around 530 kilometers is easily achievable. In fast-charging mode, it takes approximately 25 minutes to charge from 30% to 80%. BYD Han Plug-in Hybrid Version: The plug-in hybrid version is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, with a maximum power output of 141kW and a peak torque of 320Nm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block, which reduces engine weight to enhance vehicle handling and fuel efficiency.
As someone who frequently test drives various cars, I believe the BYD Han doesn't belong to the C-segment category at all. C-segment cars are typically compact models like the Volkswagen Golf, with a wheelbase around 2.6 meters. The Han's 2920mm wheelbase and nearly 5-meter body length make it significantly larger, placing it closer to D-segment mid-size sedans like the Toyota Camry. In actual driving, it offers spacious interiors where the rear seats can comfortably accommodate three people, making it particularly suitable for family road trips. Its acceleration and range stand out among electric versions, competing with the Tesla Model 3 but being more economical and practical. When purchasing, pay attention to parking space size as it occupies more room than C-segment vehicles. Daily urban commuting requires getting used to taking turns slower to avoid scratches.
