Is the BYD Yuan New Energy a Plug-in Hybrid Car?
1 Answers
BYD Yuan New Energy is not a plug-in hybrid car; this vehicle is a pure electric car. The BYD Yuan New Energy comes in two different horsepower models: one with 95 horsepower and another with 163 horsepower. It is a single-motor model that uses ternary lithium batteries, which are commonly used in most pure electric vehicles due to their higher energy density and lighter weight. The front suspension of the BYD Yuan uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension. There isn't enough space at the rear to accommodate an independent suspension, so the torsion beam non-independent suspension is used instead, as it has a simple structure, small size, and occupies less space.
