What engine does the BYD Song MAX use?
2 Answers
The BYD Song MAX series is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine codenamed BYD476ZQB. Below are the detailed specifications of the BYD Song MAX engine: 1. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivers 160 horsepower and a maximum torque of 245 N·m. It can output maximum power at 5,200 rpm and reach peak torque between 1,600 to 4,000 rpm. It features direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 2. The turbocharged engine can achieve maximum torque at relatively low RPMs. This engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. 3. The dual-clutch transmission offers fast gear shifts and high transmission efficiency, making it particularly suitable for use with small-displacement turbocharged engines.
I recently conducted an in-depth study of the BYD Song MAX's engine system, which primarily comes in two versions. The gasoline version is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 204 hp, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The power output is quite robust, making it suitable for high-speed driving. The other version features the DM-i hybrid system, combining a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a high-efficiency electric motor. In pure electric mode, it can travel over 50 kilometers, with an ultra-low comprehensive fuel consumption. Driving in the city mostly relies on electricity, making it cost-effective and eco-friendly. I test-drove the hybrid version, and it offers smooth acceleration, low noise levels, and BYD's Blade Battery technology enhances the system's safety and durability. Overall, this engine is highly efficient among MPVs, balancing performance and everyday practicality.
