2 Answers
Qin Plus and Qin Pro have the following differences: 1. Different technologies: The Plus adopts the super hybrid DMi technology, focusing on fuel efficiency. The Pro uses DMp technology, emphasizing acceleration performance. 2. Different appearances: The Pro's instrument panel features a small-sized LCD screen design, which has been further upgraded in the Plus EV, with the instrument screen embedded inside the decorative panel, offering a more integrated and fresher look. 3. Different performances: BYD's flagship safety feature, the lithium iron phosphate blade battery, is also installed in the naturally drooping PLUS. The Pro has an NEDC range of 600 kilometers.
Last time I did a thorough comparison of these two BYD models, the Qin Pro and Qin PLUS, the main differences lie in the powertrain and daily usability. The Qin Pro offers both pure electric and hybrid versions with stronger power output, but slightly higher fuel consumption, with NEDC combined fuel economy around 5L/100km. The Qin PLUS focuses on DM-i hybrid technology, equipped with Blade Battery, achieving ultra-low fuel consumption of about 1.3L/100km and pure electric range exceeding 100km, making it more suitable for commuting. In terms of design, the Qin PLUS features a more modern and stylish look with streamlined contours and soft-touch interior materials, while the Qin Pro's interior leans towards practicality. The Qin PLUS is more cost-effective with a starting price of over 100,000 yuan, offering great value for money. If you prioritize fuel efficiency and cost savings, the Qin PLUS is the right choice, but if you seek acceleration performance, the Qin Pro delivers more power. Both belong to the economical family sedan category, and BYD's DM-i technology truly achieves significant fuel savings.
