Is BYD DMi really fuel efficient? Qin PLUS DMI test drive experience

Since the launch technologyThere are many listeners consulting backstage.Is it as amazing as the manufacturer’s propaganda?

Today, we will arrange it for everyone. We will drive Qin Plus DMi to the track and make an all-round evaluation.Power, speed, control, fuel consumption and other performance.

First of all, reply to everyone in a unified way.

Several issues of high concern:

1. What is DMi’s fuel consumption performance in the case of power loss?

Answer:The manufacturer publicizes that the fuel consumption is as low as 3.8L in the power loss mode, and the fuel consumption of about 4L can be achieved by gentle driving. Driving with intense driving mode on the track, about 4.7L fuel consumption. Therefore, the low fuel consumption advertised by manufacturers is true. However, it should be noted that lithium iron phosphate batteries are most afraid of low temperature, and the fuel consumption will definitely increase in areas with cold winter.

2. If there is no charging pile, can I drive the DMi car as a fuel car?

Answer:Because of the restricted cities, many people want to drive DMi cars as fuel vehicles for a long time without charging piles, which is no problem. In the power loss mode, the engine is mainly used to generate electricity, and the efficiency of motor driving is very high, so there is no need to worry about battery attenuation caused by long-term non-charging.

3. The manufacturer claims a 100-kilometer acceleration of 7.3S Is that true?

Answer:Compared with the joint venture car with the same level of more than 100,000 yuan, the speed increase of Qin Plus DMi is much cooler. After all, it is mainly driven by motor, and the acceleration process is very smooth, and there is no sense of frustration of gearbox.

4. Is DMI technology similar to Honda’s hybrid and ideal extended program?

Answer:BYD’s DMi technology is a bit like Honda’s i-MMD technology, and it is also a bit like the extended program technology, which can be understood as iMMD for extended programs. The engine mainly provides electricity at low speed and only drives directly at high speed. It is an electric car at low speed and a hybrid car at high speed.

5. After the speed of network transmission is increased to 100km/h, the power becomes weak. Really?

Answer:It depends on what car you want to compete with. If you want to compete with a 100,000-class car, the acceleration of 100 kilometers can really rank in the top. After 100km/h, it will become a hybrid mode, and the speed increase will indeed be slower, but it is not as unbearable as everyone said, and it is acceptable for daily use.

6. Is the maintenance cost of vehicles with DMI technology high in the later period?

Answer:The engine is a generator, which needs regular maintenance, but the maintenance price is not too expensive. Hybrid batteries are dedicated, and with the increase of mileage, attenuation is inevitable, but don’t worry, 100,000-200,000 kilometers can still be used. Moreover, the manufacturer also claims the lifetime warranty of Sandian. It is estimated that this warranty has preconditions and should be maintained in the 4S shop.

Appearance:

In fact, different people have different opinions on the appearance, and the wise have different opinions.Still familiar with the "DragonFace" family design language, the new Qin Plus DMi has the shadow of BYD Han, which should conform to the aesthetics of many young people. The car clothes we got in the 4S shop are too bright, but we can still see that the overall shape is biased towards fashion sports.

The huge air intake grille is arranged in a dot matrix, the silver trim panel has the symbolic word "Qin", and the eagle-eye headlights are also bright.

The length, width and height of the new car are 4765×1837×1495mm and the wheelbase is 2718mm respectively. The tail is familiar with the penetrating taillights and "build you dream", and the hidden exhaust port looks clean and neat. A few nights ago, I met an unlisted Plus DMi on the road. It was amazing and looked very expensive.

Interior:

The overall shape of the central control is smooth, with a design-oriented panel shape, and with a low-key and not too dull sapphire color scheme, the personal feeling is relatively simple and atmospheric.

It is equipped with a 12.8-inch electric adaptive rotating large screen and a 5-inch full LCD instrument screen. Needless to say, the rotatable large screen is BYD’s interior feature, equipped with the family’s latest DiLink3.0 car system, and supports remote OTA upgrade.

But this "racing car with the same model" 5-inch full LCD instrument screen,Being criticized by many people is slightly petty.

The function of the handle is clear at a glance, with many Chinese signs, and the damping feeling of the keys is ok, but the painted panel of the piano is easy to collect fingerprints and dust. If the owner loves to be clean, it’s not a big problem to clean more diligently.

The seat is also the same seat of the current popular racing car, with higher face value and better wrapping.

Power and battery:

The chassis adopts the suspension combination of front McPherson independent and rear torsion beam non-independent, all of which are front and front drive layout.

In the power system, Qin PLUS DMi is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 81kW and a maximum torque of 135 N m. The matched gearbox is an E-CVT continuously variable transmission.

The battery adopts a tiled chassis layout, but it sinks to some extent. Adopted BYDBlade lithium iron phosphate batteryThere are two endurance versions. The 55km pure electric endurance version is equipped with the electric hybrid system EHS132, with a maximum power of 132kW and a maximum torque of 316 N m.. The 120km battery life version is equipped with the electric hybrid system EHS145, with a maximum power of 145kW and a maximum torque of 325 N m..

In the state of full oil and electricity, the comprehensive cruising range of the 55KM version can reach 1180 km, and the 120KM version can reach 1245 km.

Is it worth starting with?

Overall, BYD Qin PLUS DMiThe comprehensive cost performance is very high.You can buy a hybrid car in the early 100 thousand, and it can solve many problems without charging pilesThe hard requirements of people who need to be on the green card. DMi’s technical solution, aiming at most driving situations with power loss, the fuel consumption of vehicles is still very low.

BYD’s technology in making trams is quite mature, plus it has the advantages of most domestic cars, with high configuration, high value and high cost performance. Therefore, once it is listed, it will attract much attention and the consultation degree is very high.

However, it also has shortcomings. Apart from the common fault durability of domestic cars, the biggest concern at present is the stability of DMi technology, hoping to persist in driving more than 100,000 to 200,000 kilometers.If you want to use it as a family car, the number of kilometers a year is not large, and it is highly recommended that you consider Qin PLUS DMi.
