2 Answers
The charging power of the BYD Tang DM is 7kw. It takes approximately 22 kWh to charge from 15% to 100% battery capacity. More details about the BYD Tang DM are as follows: 1. The BYD Tang DM is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. 2. Conventional hybrid vehicles do not require separate charging for the battery, as the engine charges the battery pack while driving. However, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles need to charge the battery pack separately because these hybrids have larger battery packs and more powerful motors. 3. The BYD Tang DM is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, with the model code BYD487ZQA. This engine has a maximum power of 151kw, a maximum torque of 320 Nm, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a maximum torque speed ranging from 1750 to 4500 rpm. The engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. 4. The Tang DM adopts a dual-motor configuration, with a combined motor power of 290kw and a combined torque of 630 Nm. The front motor has a maximum power of 110kw and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, while the rear motor has a maximum power of 180kw and a maximum torque of 380 Nm. The Tang DM uses a ternary lithium battery.
I've been driving the BYD Tang DM for several months now. Its charging power at home is generally around 7 kW, and you just need to plug it into a regular charging station. A full charge takes about 4 to 5 hours. For daily commuting, charging overnight at home means it's fully charged and ready to go the next day, which is very convenient. If you use a public fast charging station, the power can increase to around 40 kW, allowing you to charge halfway in about half an hour, which is great for emergencies. However, this depends on the local charging stations and the vehicle's settings. When the battery is new and efficient, charging is faster. Cold weather can affect the charging speed, so it's advisable to preheat the battery. In winter, it's best to plan your charging time in advance to avoid disrupting your schedule.
