BYD 55km and 120km refer to the pure electric mode range versions. The following is relevant extended information: 1. BYD Auto: BYD Company Limited is headquartered at BYD Road, Pingshan New District, Longgang, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. The company's IT industry mainly includes secondary rechargeable batteries, chargers, electro-acoustic products, connectors, LCD module assemblies, plastic mechanical parts, metal parts, hardware electronic products and other mobile phone accessories. 2. Logo meaning: The BYD Auto LOGO was changed in 2007 from the old blue sky and white clouds logo to a logo consisting of only three letters and an ellipse. BYD stands for build-your-dreams, which means achieving dreams.
BYD's 55km and 120km refer to the pure electric driving range. These numbers typically indicate the pure electric range of plug-in hybrid models. The 55km version can only travel about 55 kilometers on a full charge. For example, my daily commute is 30km round trip, so this car is more than enough. I just charge it at home in the evening, and the electricity cost is super cheap—only a few dozen yuan per month. It's fuel-free and eco-friendly. However, for longer distances, I need to switch to hybrid mode. The 120km version doubles the range, making it possible to drive 100km on weekends for outings without refueling, saving both hassle and fuel costs. BYD's battery technology is quite reliable. The 120km version has a larger battery capacity and slightly longer charging time, but it supports fast charging well. Overall, the 55km version is economical and suitable for pure city commuting, while the 120km version offers more flexibility for longer trips.
The 55km and 120km refer to the maximum distance BYD's hybrid vehicles can travel in pure electric mode. Models with higher numbers have larger battery capacities and stronger range. Some friends I know find the 55km version more than sufficient for daily commutes of around 40km, with electricity costs being much cheaper than fuel. The 120km version offers longer range for fewer fuel stops on long trips, with fuel consumption so low it's almost negligible. BYD's DM-i technology is highly efficient with durable batteries, and charging can be done using a standard power socket. The 120km version is slightly heavier, resulting in a small reduction in acceleration feel, but practicality is greatly increased. Economically, the 55km version has a lower initial price, but the 120km version saves more on fuel costs in the long run. It suits different driving habits depending on individual needs.
