What is the fuel consumption of the BYD Han DM when the battery is depleted?
3 Answers
The fuel consumption of the BYD Han DM when the battery is depleted is 12L. Exterior design of the BYD Han DM: It adopts a four-door coupe styling with a fastback roof and short rear compartment design, paired with multi-spoke alloy wheels, giving the new car a distinctive sporty style. The disconnected waistline enhances the elegant texture of the model. Powertrain of the BYD Han DM: Equipped with BYD's 2.0T four-cylinder engine, the engine delivers a maximum power of 164kw. With hybrid assistance, the BYD Han DM Dual-Motor AWD model achieves a fuel consumption of only 5.9L per 100km, with a pure electric range of up to 81km.
I've noticed many BYD Han DM owners experience a slight increase in fuel consumption when the battery is low. In urban driving conditions, the fuel consumption typically ranges between 4.5 to 5.5 liters per 100 kilometers, mainly because the engine kicks in to power the vehicle. Various factors can influence this, such as highway or mountain driving, which might push consumption up to around 6 liters, and using the air conditioning also adds to the fuel usage. I recall a long trip where the fuel consumption hovered around 5 liters after the battery was depleted—still quite economical, but it's better to charge in advance. It's advisable to use the EV mode more often to avoid battery depletion, especially for short trips, or to regularly maintain and check the engine's condition. After all, the car is designed for efficiency, and even when the battery is low, it doesn't guzzle fuel like a conventional gasoline car, offering good overall economy and environmental friendliness, making for a worry-free drive.
Regarding the BYD Han DM's fuel consumption when the battery is depleted, after driving it for several months, I've noticed some fluctuations. The actual measured average is around 5 liters per 100 kilometers, mainly because the engine takes over driving when the battery is depleted. The DM-i system is quite intelligent, automatically adjusting energy output. It's less than half of what a pure gasoline car would consume, primarily due to the higher efficiency of the engine. However, in less ideal road conditions, it can reach 6 liters, and it's even more fuel-consuming in low winter temperatures. My experience suggests planning trips well, using pure electric mode in the city to avoid battery depletion issues, and charging fully before long-distance drives. Overall, this car is economical and cost-effective. The official test shows a fuel consumption of 4.5 liters per 100 kilometers when the battery is depleted, and daily driving costs are quite stable.
