The differences between BYD Song and Song Pro are: 1. Different dimensions: The length, width, and height of BYD Song are 4600mm, 1830mm, and 1700mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2660mm; while Song Pro measures 4650mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1700mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2712mm. 2. Different configurations: BYD Song is equipped with hill start assist; whereas Song Pro features cruise control, rear radar, and reversing camera. Song Pro has a maximum horsepower of 160hp, comes with a 6-speed manual transmission, a fuel tank capacity of 63L, and a maximum torque of 245Nm.
I'm recently considering a car change and compared the BYD Song and Song Pro, finding the differences mainly in configurations. The Song Pro is generally more expensive but has noticeably upgraded interiors, like higher-quality soft materials and a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen, supporting remote control and L2 autonomous driving assistance; the base Song isn't as luxurious. In terms of space, the Song Pro is slightly longer with a bigger wheelbase, offering more rear legroom, which suits taller families. For power, the Song offers a 1.5T pure gasoline option with higher fuel consumption, while the Song Pro comes standard with DM-i hybrid, achieving an actual fuel consumption as low as 4L per 100km, saving money and being eco-friendly. Both are sufficient for daily commutes, but the Song Pro has better noise insulation and is more stable at high speeds; if the budget allows, choosing the Pro brings comfort upgrades. I also asked friends, and they mentioned the Pro has slightly better resale value, but maintenance costs are similar to the base Song, with BYD's service being quite reliable.
