What is the difference between BYDM DM and DM-i?
1 Answers
The difference between BYD DM and DM-i lies in their different advantages and core technical components. The differences between BYD DM and DM-i are as follows: 1. Different advantages: DM-i has multiple advantages that lead other hybrid technologies, and its "core concept" is to prioritize electricity and use fuel as a supplement. In terms of architecture, the DM-i super hybrid is based on a large-capacity battery and high-power motor, and the vehicle relies on the high-power motor for driving during operation. The main function of the gasoline engine is to charge the battery, and it only directly drives when more power is needed, and even then, it works in coordination with the motor to reduce the load. This hybrid technology is different from traditional hybrid technologies that rely on the engine, thus being more effective in reducing fuel consumption. 2. Different core technical components: The core components of BYD's DM-i super hybrid technology are the newly developed Xiaoyun plug-in hybrid dedicated engine, which comes in two different versions—the 1.5L engine is mainly used in Qin PLUS and Song PLUS, while the 1.5T turbocharged engine is used in the larger Tang DM-i model. Of course, these models also have two important components: the EHS dual motor and the DM-i super hybrid dedicated blade battery, along with a series of vehicle control systems, engine control systems, motor control systems, and battery management systems, which together constitute the super hybrid system. Most importantly, these core components and key technologies are entirely independently developed by BYD.
