HanDM-i: I know that I have to wait for three months to buy a car, but someone still buys it. Is it so good?
There is no doubt that the BYD Han DM-i series has a significant model in the new energy mid-sized sedan market, and the market has always been in a shortage of supply. For such a phenomenal model, being able to reach such a height is not only to have the brand title of BYD , but more importantly, the product strength is enough to be attractive. Let’s experience Han DM-i today and see what’s its charm?
In terms of appearance, Han DM-i is very close to previous DM models, which is a bit difficult to distinguish between the new and old models. The front air intake grille is filled with dot matrix decoration and black paint on the outer ring, which looks younger and more fashionable. There is a piece of iconic chrome decorative pieces above, and the Han LOGO is in a three-dimensional style. The shape of the headlights on both sides has not changed, and the three-section design of the dragon claw-like interior is very special.
The sides are very slender, and chrome-plated decorative elements are added to the fender and side skirt areas, and combined with the hidden door handles, it shows a good luxury texture. In terms of size, the length, width and height of Han DM-i are 4975/1910/1495mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2920mm, making it a medium and large sedan.
The rear changes in the taillights appear in the taillights. In addition to retaining the popular through-type designs, the internal structure is more refined, and the layers can be highlighted after adding the three-dimensional inner concave shape.
in the car, the lines are simple and smooth, and can be adapted to buyers of different ages. At the same time, leather, piano paint, wood grain decorative panels, and chrome metal are added to match the materials, and the overall texture and luxury are guaranteed.
The steering wheel is double-spoke, the holding feels hard, and the internal filling is not thick enough, but the multi-function buttons on both sides are made of matte material and are marked in Chinese, which has very low learning cost and is easy to get started. Behind it is a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument, the interface UI theme has made great progress, and the adjustable options are quite rich, so the navigation information can be mapped directly on it.
The central control large screen size reaches 15.6 inches, and supports two display methods: vertical and horizontal screens, which helps to be compatible with more apps. The built-in DiLink 4.0 intelligent networking system covers current mainstream functions such as voice interaction, online navigation, and entertainment. It is also equipped with an application store. Various expansion programs can be found on it, with a rich gameplay.
The front seats adopt an integrated sporty shape, with the leather on the surface that feels very delicate, and combined with uniform stitching, the high-end feel is quite good. In terms of functions, the seat lumbar support/heating/ventilation are all available. The back seat cushion filling is very thick, the leg space is also very abundant, the backrest angle is also consistent with the body, and it is very close to the body when sitting on it. In addition, the middle is equipped with air conditioning air outlet and air conditioning control panel functions
dynamic experience
power system. In terms of the entire Han DM-i model, the entire series adopts a plug-in hybrid system with 1.5T engine + single motor, and the blade battery capacity is 18.3kWh and 37.5kWh, respectively, and the pure electric range is 121 and 242 kilometers respectively. At medium and low speeds, the vehicle is driven entirely by a motor, so the response is very fast. Basically, if you step on the accelerator lightly, you will get good power feedback. When you step on the accelerator deeply, the engine will immediately intervene in driving the vehicle with the motor. The intervention process is handled very well, and there is no vibration that affects comfort. Of course, since the test drive was the DM-i model, its performance is not particularly outstanding, with an acceleration time of 100 kilometers of 7.9 seconds, and the real performance depends on the DM-p. The chassis is still a familiar front McPherson rear multi-link independent structure, but the adjustment has been comprehensively improved compared to the 2020 Han EV. In the past, the 2020 Han EV chassis was a shortcoming of the driving components of the entire vehicle. Not only did it have many small vibrations, but the dynamic follow-up of the body was also relatively poor. The overall texture did not meet the standards that more than 200,000 medium and large sedans should have.However, when it comes to the new model, I feel like two cars. The texture of the chassis is no longer stiff, and it retains support while not being too soft. It can effectively filter out excess vibration when passing through uneven roads, and the car can always maintain good comfort.
