As a rising star in the century-old automobile industry, Chinese brands are both difficult and lucky. The hardship is the era of the birth of Chinese brands, the world automobile industry has a history of a hundred years, technology and market have long been divided up by overseas powers. Surviving in the cracks has become the only choice, and it is the only vitality. Fortunately, domestic policymakers and auto brands have invariably focused on the new energy track, which has since opened the way for Chinese brands to change lanes and overtake. Among them, BYD’s performance is particularly eye-catching.
BYD, which started its battery business, realized at the beginning of its establishment that “electrification” is the only way for the future automotive industry. As a result, BYD seized the opportunity to stand on the cusp and become a leader in the field of new energy vehicles, and has grown into an iconic symbol of China’s new energy vehicles.
Focusing on products, if the Tang series model is a banner of BYD in the field of SUVs, then the Han series is a new benchmark in the field of cars. As the first model equipped with BYD DM-p King Hybrid, the Han DM-P, which is known for its performance, has been compared to the “N-side warrior” and “hybrid car ceiling” by many people in the industry.
The term “hexagonal warrior” first came from the Japanese two-dimensional anime, which is another name for a character with full abilities in all aspects, referring to a person who has expertise in multiple fields and is very versatile.
In the automotive field, because the product power advantage of Han DM-p covers multiple dimensions and is greatly leading, the industry draws on the statement of the hexagon warrior and calls the Han DM-p “N-side warrior” to fit its excellent performance in various indicators.
So, what is the actual performance of Han DM-p, and in which dimensions does it have excellent performance? Let’s take a look.
Here first consider a question, BBA BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C Class and Audi A4L why are high-end, why are they luxurious? The answer may be excellent design, or it may be the use of materials, craftsmanship, or driving pleasure. But if we look at the Han DM-p in the same dimension, we will find that the car is actually more powerful.
In terms of performance, Han DM-p adopts a “electricity-based” four-wheel drive hybrid architecture, with a combination of dual motors of the first 160kW and 200kW, which can be oiled and electric, with superior performance, and the maximum total torque of the motor has reached an astonishing 675N·m, which not only improves the Han family’s zero hundred acceleration score to 3.7s, but also becomes the fastest accelerating model at this price. In addition, thanks to the blessing of DiSus-C intelligent electronic control active suspension and super intelligent electric four-wheel drive, the stability and comfort performance of Han DM-p are equally outstanding, which can be called “the performance ceiling of the flagship car of the Chinese brand”.
In terms of efficiency, Han DM-p also breaks the tradition of “good power = high fuel consumption” of previous performance vehicles, and has the same excellent fuel saving performance on the basis of strong performance. Its NEDC 100 km loss fuel consumption is only 5.2L, and there is a 202km NEDC pure electric range. Such excellent performance and performance make the Han DM-p achieve a two-way breakthrough, far exceeding the traditional fuel vehicle more than one level.
Look at the design aspects that domestic users pay more attention to. Han DM-p is still designed by international design masters Wolfgang Egger and Michelle Paganetti, using Dragon Face sports design style, high-performance sports wheels matching Brembo racing class matte gray four-piston fixtures (front) looks very pleasing to the eye, and the tail light group’s “Chinese knot” 3D three-dimensional style design is also more distinctive, full of fashion and sports, compared to BBA.
In terms of safety, the Han DM-p is equipped with a super hybrid special power blade battery, which can easily pass the needle puncture test. At the same time, at the level of active and passive safety, the configuration is also full of strength, which can ensure the travel safety of users from many aspects.
In the modern automobile industry, the German brand has become synonymous with high-end car series, and the impression of BBA is deeply rooted in people’s minds. However, in the new energy transformation of the automotive industry, new challenges mean new opportunities, Han DM-p allows users to enjoy the 3-second performance experience of million-level supercars at a price of 300,000 levels, while also taking into account high performance, high value, high safety. Especially from the bottom to solve the “contradiction” between performance and efficiency, so that the surging power + electric four-wheel drive, and “fuel saving” coexist in a car, which has never been seen before!
▍Hybrid car ceiling, help independent brands to break through
The price of independent brand cars has always had an invisible red line, that is, models with more than 200,000 yuan are basically difficult to get market recognition, and more than 300,000 yuan is a rare achievement. This also indirectly reflects that the people-friendly cost-effective image of independent brands has been deeply rooted, and many consumers still maintain the prejudice that “domestic cars should be sold cheaply”.
However, if Chinese brands want to achieve upward breakthroughs and complete lane change overtaking, car companies must step forward to break this invisible barrier and take a solid step. BYD obviously saw this, and took the lead in launching the impact of Han EV, and after gaining a firm foothold, it immediately launched two hybrid models with super strength, Han DM-i and Han DM-p, and quickly formed a series matrix.
Carefully compare the Han family models and you will find that in addition to the limited edition, the Han DM-p is the only model in the whole family with a price of more than 300,000 yuan, and it is also the most expensive hybrid sedan of the Chinese brand. With the four core advantages of “performance, efficiency, aesthetics and safety”, Han DM-p has become the existence of the ceiling level of hybrid cars, and it is also the key to BYD’s brand promotion, and it has laid a solid foundation for the collective upward movement of Chinese auto brands.
Looking at the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and Audi A4L in the same price range, these three German brand luxury models are slightly inferior in performance, performance, design, intelligent technology and body size compared with Han DM-p, and the product characteristics of Han DM-p can be summarized as “all-round, no dead ends”.
Therefore, we can draw such a conclusion: the budget of the early 300,000 yuan, both want strong power, but also want low fuel consumption, but also want high intelligence, it is best to be on the green card, Han DM-p is the best choice in the same price point! This also means that in the 300,000-level car market, BYD has a harder fist and a bigger killer, and Chinese auto brands have since had the confidence to directly PK with traditional luxury brands.
So, if it were you, would you rather be conservative about buying a traditional fuel car, or would you rather choose a hybrid sedan ceiling Han DM-p?
