Shangri-La witnessed the plateau dynamic experience of BYD Han DM-i glory version.

[Test drive after having a car] In July 2020, I was invited to participate.Byd Han EVThe first test drive, all the way from Lijiang to Shangri-La. I still remember that every time I stopped at that time, many passers-by came to ask for new car information. After a lapse of more than three years, I drove the new Han again and drove from Lijiang to Shangri-La again. The difference is that the test drive has changed from Han EV to Han DM-i with the suffix of "Glory Edition", and that the Han family has changed from the fledgling at that time to the current market segment.

Comment on BYD Han DM-i in a word:

Large size, neat configuration, the key is low energy consumption, such a Chinese DM-i glory version is really good!

Advantages:

1. The starting price is less than 170,000 yuan, and the entry threshold is low.

2. The official power loss and fuel consumption are as low as 4.2L/100km.

3, even in the plateau can also have good dynamic performance.

4, the wheelbase is over 2m9, and the ride space is good.

5. DiLink 100 high-order intelligent cockpit is standard.

Insufficient:

1. Yunqi -C is only equipped with optional equipment on the glory edition of Chinese DM-I.

2. The cooling effect of wireless charging board needs to be improved.

To tell the truth, when we test-drive the glory version of Han DM-i, we didn’t know what the final price would be, only felt that it had changed a lot. First of all, the new car has added the appearance color of silver glaze white and the interior color matching of lotus rhyme gray for consumers to choose. In my opinion, these two colors can effectively enhance the grade sense of the vehicle, which is very worth choosing.

On the glory edition of Han EV, you can also see the new sunset purple color scheme. The color scheme was inspired by Wang Bo.Preface to Tengwang Pavillion":"The water is exhausted and the cold pool is clear, and the smoke is condensed and the mountains are purple. "The real car looks very individual.

In addition, Han DM-i Glory Edition has made some changes in configuration, and the wireless charging board has been upgraded to 50W, which is more in line with the needs of smart phones. But there is a small spit here. It would be better if the heat dissipation of the charging board could be better. Intelligent fragrance and seat massage also appeared on the new car. The existence of these configurations will definitely bring users a better car experience.

In terms of configuration, I think the most noteworthy thing is that the intelligent cockpit system of the new car has been upgraded to DiLink 100 high-end intelligent cockpit. Based on the Opteron processor, the intelligent cockpit is deeply customized to support the 5G vehicle cockpit platform, and the performance of the 6nm high computing power chip is better than that of the industry mainstream 8155 chip.

At the same time, the brand-new car machine system also supports the map-wallpaper dual desktop, and the boot is the map without opening the App. The 3D car control function also improves the convenience of using the car, and many controls on the car can be directly completed in the system. In the system, you can also see the new situational modes such as nap/baby mode, which can create a more comfortable and safer car environment for users.

It’s a pity that our test-drive model doesn’t have Yunqi -C intelligent damping body control system, and it’s a pity that we have to support the optional installation on the Han DM-i 200km version. According to the official introduction, in the future, models with Yunqi -C intelligent damping body control system will also upgrade the "preview function", based on the high-order intelligent driving "Eye of the God"vision sensorCollect the road information in front in real time, and actively adjust the body posture and four-wheel suspension damping through the accurate calculation of the central brain of the whole vehicle.

Even though the new car didn’t bring me too many surprises in chassis performance, I was deeply impressed by the dynamic performance and energy consumption when driving on the plateau. I believe I have seen "Pegasus 2"Friends should still have an impression. In the movie, it is said that the performance of hybrid cars in plateau competitions will be better than that of traditional fuel cars. The actual situation is indeed like this. Han DM-i Glory Edition is driving on the road at an altitude of 2,000-3,000 meters, and its dynamic performance is really not obviously weak. Even when we are driving, the vehicle is already in a state of power loss, but the power is still available. The second driving and high-speed overtaking are effortless, and the experience is really much better than driving a traditional fuel vehicle. After all, the operation of the motor doesn’t depend much on oxygen, otherwise Musk wouldn’t say that his Cybertruck can be opened on Mars.

Of course, the low altitude temperature will also make the battery power down faster. The power of the superimposed engine is reduced due to the low oxygen content, so the energy consumption of the vehicle is definitely higher than that on the plain. However, according to the actual measurement, the energy consumption per 100 kilometers of Han DM-i Glory Edition is not much higher than that of the plain, and the energy consumption of 5.9L/100km is still worthy of recognition. After the overall experience, you can’t help but sigh that the plateau does affect the performance of vehicles, but what does it have to do with my DM-i?

summary

On one hand, the dynamic performance of the glory version of Han DM-i has not been greatly improved compared with the previous champion version. However, considering its upgrade in comfort configuration and intelligent configuration, coupled with the adjustment in price, the competitiveness of the new car is really high enough to overflow the screen. You can buy a hybrid car with such an all-around performance for less than 170 thousand. I can only say that this year’s consumers are so happy.
