What is the range of the BYD Qin Plus?
2 Answers
The new BYD Qin can achieve a pure electric range of up to 120 kilometers, with a comprehensive range exceeding 1000 kilometers. Factors affecting range: Poor road conditions, traffic congestion, and frequent stops at traffic lights can cause electric vehicles to stop and start frequently, increasing energy consumption and ultimately affecting the range. Driving habits and techniques such as sudden braking and acceleration... will also accelerate power consumption. Just like with fuel-powered vehicles, good driving habits can extend the range. Methods to improve vehicle range: Fundamentally, the most direct way to increase range is to maximize the energy density of the battery. Optimizing vehicle design to achieve better aerodynamic effects is also a method to reduce energy consumption.
The range performance of the BYD Qin Plus is definitely worth discussing. I've been driving this car for almost a year now. It comes in two pure electric range versions: 55 km and 120 km. Mine is the 120 km version, which is more than enough for daily city commuting—a single charge lasts me four days of round-trip work commutes. With a full tank and full charge, the range exceeds 1,245 km. On my last road trip from Shenzhen to Xiamen, I didn’t need to refuel midway, which was incredibly cost-effective. The DM-i technology is very intelligent, automatically switching modes based on road conditions. Fuel consumption is impressively low on highways, and if you rely more on pure electric mode in the city, the monthly electricity bill is just a few dozen yuan. I recommend regular battery maintenance to ensure high efficiency. Before purchasing, I test-drove different versions, and the 120 km variant is better suited for long-distance needs, offering full practicality and a smooth, quiet driving experience.
