The front face is more vigorous, More suitable for the aesthetics of young friends. The design of BYD's family-style DRAGON FACE. The hexagonal grille is wide and prominent, and friends who like it appreciate his domineering. But some friends felt that the force was a little harder. With the dot matrix chrome-plated square decoration inside, and the wide chrome trim strips above, the texture creation is really good. The standard LED headlights of the whole series are pulled back obliquely, which widens the front of the car and is sharp and atmospheric.
Viewed from the side, the body attitude is positive. The front of the car is pressed down with the waistline that is later warped, and the roofline is tilted backward, giving the sense of sight to run at any time. The fuel tank is on the left and the charging port is on the right. However, the 55 KM model does not support fast charging, and there is no fast charging interface.
The tail is mainly concise, using nowadays smooth through-type taillights, and the slender lines span the entire tail, which is conspicuous and delicate. However, the lower bumper is specially decorated with black, which increases the sense of hierarchy but also has a little cumbersome feeling.
The interior is a classic enveloping design, not special but pleasing to the eye.The interior is provided with a color scheme, with a paint panel and a lot of soft surfaces, which gives a good sense of quality.
The LCD instrument is very good, the interface is gorgeous, the display is clear and focused, and it has the sense of racing. Standard 10.1-inch central control touch screen, 110KM high-profile upgrade to 12.8 inches. The touch screen can be rotated according to personal practical habits, which is very convenient to use. It is equipped with the DiLink 3.0 car and it supports remote OTA, and the response is smooth and easy to use.
In terms of space, the body height is 1495 mm and the wheelbase is 2718 mm. Sit at a height of 175 cm in the driver's position, adjust the seat to a comfortable position, with your head four fingers away from the roof. It feels loose enough, but not particularly superior.
Sit in the back row with your head three fingers away from the roof. Sliding back suppressed the rear clearance. The knee is one punch and limbs away from the back of the front seat, and legroom is still good. There is no air outlet for the 55KM low configuration. Other configurations are available. Prospective car owners who often sit in the back should pay attention to it.
Power is the advantage of this car. The power of the 55KM version is quite satisfactory. Lightly step on the accelerator when starting, this time it is in pure electric mode, accelerating lightly and quietly. When you continue to step on the accelerator, the engine will intervene to start the HEV, and the power is strong and continuous. There is no difficulty in walking and stopping in the city or overtaking and merging at high speeds. At 120 km/h, the speed will rise immediately when the accelerator is depressed. The power reserve is sufficient.
Silence is great. In the pure electric mode, the car is quite quiet when running in the city with a small amount of background sound. The engine is also relatively quiet, and even after the intervention, there is no engine movement in the car. Only when accelerating sharply, there will be a small amount of engine sound coming in. Wind noise and tire noise are well suppressed at high speeds.The car is quiet enough without music, and there is no pressure to talk at a normal volume.
In the understand car emperor App, the Qin PLUS DM-i overall score is 3.79, power is 4.2, appearance is 4.1, space is 3.7, control is 3.7, and there is a rating The owner wrote in the car review, "Needless to say, the power performance, acceleration comes whenever you want, a steady stream, city overtaking is very easy, the high-speed eco mode, step on half the accelerator, basically reach the speed of 100", it can be seen that the power is indeed quite satisfied. .
