What is the long-distance fuel consumption of the BYD Tang DM?
1 Answers
The long-distance fuel consumption of the BYD Tang DM is generally around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. Here is some extended information on advanced battery conservation techniques for the BYD Tang DM: 1. Speeding: If the speed exceeds 140 km/h, the engine load is high, and it generally won't charge the battery. Therefore, setting a higher speed won't help, and the battery level might even drop in hybrid economy mode. 2. Uphill driving: For example, when driving to Tibet, where the altitude continuously rises, the engine load will also be relatively high, leaving no extra power to charge the battery. In this case, the battery level won't increase. There are ways to conserve battery, but note that on roads with alternating uphill and downhill sections, such as mountain passes, battery conservation isn't necessary—the battery will recharge during downhill driving. If the battery level is too low, you can use sand mode to increase the engine speed and reduce the vehicle speed, keeping the engine at around 2000 RPM. 3. Traffic congestion: In urban traffic jams, using hybrid economy mode is ineffective. With the air conditioning on in summer, the battery level will drop quickly. To conserve battery in such situations, switch to hybrid snow mode, where the engine will charge the battery while idling. Alternatively, use sand mode and drive at low speeds around 2200 RPM. Although this will result in higher short-term fuel consumption and a poorer driving experience, the battery will recharge very quickly.
