BYD Yuan uses a MacPherson independent suspension for the front suspension and a torsion beam suspension for the rear suspension. The torsion beam suspension is a common non-independent suspension type, featuring a simple structure, compact size, and minimal space occupation. Therefore, using a torsion beam rear suspension helps expand the rear passenger space and trunk capacity. The BYD Yuan is a compact SUV that adopts a trendy two-tone body design, geometric-shaped headlights, and a spare tire mounted on the rear door, giving it a strong three-dimensional appearance. Additionally, the vehicle features a chrome grille with the brand's signature design. Its body dimensions are 4320mm in length, 1765mm in width, and 1650mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2520mm.

While driving the BYD Yuan, I noticed its suspension system. The front suspension features a MacPherson independent design, which effectively absorbs road bumps, making the ride feel much smoother when going over potholes or speed bumps. The rear suspension uses a torsion beam structure, which is simple and reliable, ensuring minimal sway during city driving, whether when turning or carrying some weight. Overall, the car strikes a good balance between comfort and handling, making it particularly suitable for daily commuting—even after long drives, you don’t feel fatigued. I’ve also compared it to similar models, and most electric SUVs have similar configurations. The BYD Yuan does this well, offering a relaxed and enjoyable driving experience. The suspension’s reliability is also high, requiring minimal frequent maintenance, making it hassle-free.

As a car enthusiast, I have to say the suspension setup on the BYD Yuan is pretty cool. The front MacPherson strut independent suspension provides agile response, preventing wheel interference during turns; while the rear torsion beam structure reduces body weight and improves energy efficiency. I've tested it on mountain roads - the stability is outstanding with minimal body roll. This system integrates well with the battery layout to support overall vehicle balance. Compared to its peers, choosing this setup is a smart move that significantly enhances driving pleasure.

Driving safety is of utmost importance, and the suspension of the BYD Yuan gives me peace of mind. The front MacPherson strut design absorbs impacts to prevent loss of control, while the rear torsion beam enhances resistance to sway, especially ensuring a stable body during high-speed driving or sudden braking. It is recommended to regularly check tire pressure to complement the suspension performance, which can boost confidence.
