I've been driving the BYD Qin Plus DM-i for almost a year now, mainly for urban commuting, and the fuel consumption has been a really pleasant surprise. The official WLTC combined fuel consumption is 1.58L/100km, but actual driving depends on the charging status. I usually charge it every night, and for short trips, I use pure electric mode exclusively, which saves a lot on fuel costs, especially in areas with many traffic lights where fuel consumption is close to 0. When driving on the highway with a depleted battery, fuel consumption rises to around 4.6L, but that's still much better than the 10L I used to get with my previous gasoline car. The key is to maintain smooth driving habits and avoid sudden acceleration—this can save thousands in fuel costs over a year. Tire pressure also affects fuel consumption, so regular checks can help save even more. Overall, it's super cost-effective and practical, perfect for someone like me who deals with daily traffic jams during the commute.
