What is the principle of BYD DM-i super hybrid technology?
1 Answers
DM-i super hybrid technology is designed based on the high-safety Blade Battery and high-performance high-power motor. It primarily relies on the high-power efficient motor for driving, while the gasoline engine's main role is to generate electricity within its efficient rpm range and directly drive the vehicle when appropriate. By altering the traditional hybrid design that is predominantly engine-driven, it significantly reduces fuel consumption. Additional information: 1. Architecture: DM-i super hybrid is based on a large-capacity battery and high-power motor. During driving, the vehicle relies on the high-power motor for propulsion, while the gasoline engine primarily functions to charge the battery. It directly engages only when additional power is needed, and even then, it works in tandem with the motor to reduce load. This hybrid technology differs from traditional hybrid systems that heavily depend on the engine, thereby achieving more effective fuel efficiency. 2. When the battery is sufficiently charged: When a DM-i model has sufficient battery charge, it operates like a pure electric vehicle, with the motor providing adequate power for various road conditions. When the battery is low, the DM-i model autonomously determines whether to use electricity, fuel, or a combination of both based on system conditions.
