Is the BYD Han DM equipped with blade battery?
2 Answers
BYD Han DM does not use blade battery. Here is the introduction about BYD Han DM: 1. Configuration: Han DM has only one configuration version, equipped with ACC full-speed adaptive cruise, AEB active braking, LKS lane keeping, panoramic sunroof, and ventilated/heated seats. 2. Power: Han DM is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of a 2.0T engine and an electric motor. The engine has a maximum horsepower of 192Ps, and the electric motor has a maximum horsepower of 244Ps. The hybrid system has a maximum power of 436Ps and a peak torque of 650N·m, with a 0-100km/h acceleration time of only 4.7s. 3. Battery type: The power battery used in Han DM is a ternary lithium battery with a capacity of 15.2kWh.
The BYD Han DM plug-in hybrid version indeed doesn't use the Blade Battery, which is primarily reserved for pure electric vehicles. The Blade Battery is BYD's signature invention, structured like stacked thin sheets, offering high energy density and strong safety performance, making it excel in the Han EV. However, the DM version, as a hybrid, prioritizes cost balance and practicality, opting for lithium iron phosphate batteries instead. While the basic technology is similar, it doesn't feature the blade design. If you choose the hybrid, the benefits include fuel efficiency combined with electric drive, ensuring stable range, especially in urban traffic where the pure electric mode can cover short distances. I've driven it for a while—smooth acceleration without lag, minimal battery drain in winter, though it requires more frequent charging. Overall, the Blade Battery's innovation shines brighter in safety and explosion prevention, but the DM's battery is reliable too; with proper maintenance, it lasts long. Nowadays, automakers are pushing cost-effective solutions, and while the hybrid's battery is simpler, it's more down-to-earth.
