2 Answers
The range of the BYD S2 is 305km. Here are the relevant details: The BYD S2 is the second model under BYD's e-network, positioned as a pure electric compact SUV. Its body dimensions are 4100mm in length, 1785mm in width, and 1680mm in height. It is equipped with a 95-horsepower electric motor, delivering a maximum torque of 180 Nm. In terms of features, the BYD S2's dashboard is fitted with a 10.1-inch 8-core adaptive rotating floating Pad, which not only looks premium visually but also offers convenient and comprehensive operation. The BYD S2 comes with the DiLink intelligent connectivity system and the echo intelligent voice interaction system, allowing direct connection to 4G networks for online music, navigation, live streaming, shopping, instant messaging, and other internet services anytime, anywhere.
I've been driving the BYD S2 for half a year now. My daily commute to work in the city is about 15 kilometers one way. On a full charge, it can run around 320 kilometers, dropping to about 280 kilometers when it's cold in winter. Traffic jams in the morning increase energy consumption, but smooth driving can extend the range. Using the air conditioning consumes a lot of power, reducing the range by 30 kilometers is quite normal. On weekends, going to the suburbs for a round trip of 100 kilometers is no problem, and there are plenty of charging stations for quick top-ups. BYD's battery management is quite smart, and driving in eco-mode saves both energy and money. It's recommended to regularly check the battery health and not overlook it. Overall, I'm satisfied with the car's range—charging once a week is enough for commuting. The cheap electricity costs save a lot of money every month.
