What is the charging power of the BYD Han DM?

[DeEmilio]

The Han DM is equipped with a 6.6kw charger. Here is some relevant information about the BYD Han: Introduction to the BYD Han: The BYD Han is a flagship new energy vehicle launched by BYD Auto in 2020, marking BYD's new energy vehicles moving towards the mid-to-high-end market. The BYD Han is a B-segment car with body dimensions of 4980 (4960)/1910/1495mm and a wheelbase of 2920mm. Features of the BYD Han: It boasts a supercar-level drag coefficient of 0.233Cd, accelerates from 0-100km/h in 3.9 seconds, and is equipped with an "IPB Intelligent Integrated Braking System." With the original factory-fitted tires, its braking distance from 100km/h is only 32.8 meters.

I found that the charging power of the BYD Han DM is typically around 7kW AC, which is suitable for home slow-charging stations or 220V sockets, providing stable and reliable charging speed. The battery capacity is approximately 18kWh, taking about 2.5 to 3 hours to charge from empty to full, depending on ambient temperature and voltage stability. The power setting takes battery health into consideration, as excessively high power may cause overheating and shorten battery lifespan, so BYD has optimized efficiency. It is recommended to use original charging equipment to avoid malfunctions caused by third-party accessories. In daily use, the power setting has minimal impact, but regular circuit inspections are important to ensure safety. The advantage of plug-in hybrid models lies in their smaller battery size, enabling faster and more convenient charging compared to pure electric vehicles, which rely heavily on DC fast charging.

As a regular car owner, my charging power is fixed at 7kW. The home charging station is very convenient—just spend a few minutes setting it up, plug it in for three hours at night, and it's fully charged. The range increases by several dozen kilometers, which is enough for city commuting. A single charge before heading out on weekends is sufficient. The cost is economical, with electricity costing just a few cents per kilowatt-hour, and the short charging time doesn’t disrupt daily life. It’s also compatible with public charging stations, though slow charging stations are more common. The actual experience is smooth, and the battery is well-protected, avoiding overheating issues that could lead to additional maintenance.

For me, the 7kW charging power of the Han DM saves time and effort. A full charge takes about three hours, which is perfect for utilizing the low off-peak electricity rates at night, resulting in lower costs. No professional equipment is needed; a household socket will do. Fast charging means you can set off anytime, reducing the anxiety of waiting. Additionally, the small battery is easy to maintain, eliminating the range concerns associated with larger-capacity vehicles. It's recommended to download the APP to monitor the charging status, as the real-time power display can help prevent unexpected issues.
