The differences between the Leiling Hybrid and Leiling Hybrid e are: 1. Different engines: The Leiling Hybrid is equipped with a 1.2T L4 engine; the Leiling Hybrid e has a 1.8L L4 engine. 2. Different intake forms: The Leiling Hybrid uses turbocharging; the Leiling Hybrid e uses natural aspiration. 3. Different maximum horsepower: The Leiling Hybrid has a maximum horsepower of 116ps; the Leiling Hybrid e has a maximum horsepower of 99ps. 4. Different maximum torque: The Leiling Hybrid has a maximum torque of 185Nm; the Leiling Hybrid e has a maximum torque of 142Nm. 5. Different fuel tank capacities: The Leiling Hybrid has a fuel tank capacity of 50L; the Leiling Hybrid e has a fuel tank capacity of 40L.
The core difference between the Leiling Hybrid and Hybrid e lies in their charging methods: one is a regular hybrid that doesn’t require external charging, while the other is a plug-in hybrid that needs external charging. The Hybrid relies on the engine and regenerative braking to charge the battery, primarily running on fuel after startup, with very short pure-electric driving range. The Hybrid e comes with a charging port, allowing you to charge at home or charging stations, offering a pure-electric range of over 50 km, making it more suitable for short commutes in pure-electric mode. In terms of fuel efficiency, the Hybrid e is more economical due to its higher reliance on electricity, potentially saving over 30% more fuel than the standard version. However, the Hybrid e is more expensive and requires consideration for charging station installation. The regular Leiling Hybrid has a lower purchase price, is hassle-free without the need to find charging points, and offers equally reliable maintenance. The choice depends on your driving habits: opt for the e version for city commuting with short distances for eco-friendliness and cost savings; choose the standard version for long-distance driving or if charging conditions are unavailable for worry-free use.
