What engine does the BYD Yuan use?
2 Answers
BYD Yuan uses two types of engines in total, one is a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 109 horsepower and a maximum torque of 145 Nm, while the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 154 horsepower and a maximum torque of 240 Nm. The BYD Yuan is a compact SUV with a length, width, and height of 4320 mm, 1765 mm, and 1650 mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2520 mm. The BYD Yuan still adopts a chrome-plated grille design, which is integrated with irregularly shaped headlights, giving it a very dynamic appearance.
The BYD Yuan is a pure electric vehicle, so it doesn't have a traditional gasoline or diesel engine at all. As someone who loves automotive technology, I'm very interested in its drive system—it replaces the engine with an efficient permanent magnet synchronous motor, which not only responds quickly and accelerates smoothly without any jerking but also eliminates the complex issues brought by the combustion process. The motor delivers strong horsepower, making it effortless to start and overtake in city driving. Paired with BYD's Blade Battery, the range is also quite reliable. The absence of engine noise is fantastic, making the driving environment much quieter. Plus, with its simple structure, maintenance is much easier than with internal combustion engine models—just occasional checks on the electrical circuits and software updates. The entire system excels in energy efficiency and reliability.
