If you look at the sales rankings of plug-in models in China in July, you may see only one car brand – BYD. And just launched SEAL 06)DM-i is also very attractive, with a monthly sales of 21659 cars rushed to the third place, as well as 13 standard configuration, are SEAL 06DM-i competitive advantage, today we come to a plate BYD Seal 06DM-i.
As we all know, BYD’s dynasty network is a calm style, while the ocean network has been youth, fashion appearance, BYD Seal 06DM-i used a new ocean aesthetic design, youth and sports better integrated into the design. The bionic design of the front face, with the fan-shaped outline of the whale tail paired with the air intake of the wave front grille, coupled with the new double L-shaped shaped shaped lens lights, creates a clean and very designed overall style.
As a B-class car, Seal 06DM-i has a length of 4830mm, a wheelbase of 2790mm, a width of 1875mm and a height of 1495mm. The body line on the side is simple and stylish, extending from the rear door panel to the waist line of the rear half of the tail, which Outlines the sense of movement of the tail, and the interior of the blackened through taillight. There is also a raindrop lattice gradient light source wrapped in a double C style design at both ends, which is very recognizable on the road. At the same time, the 18-inch 5-spoke flying axe wheels not only shape the movement, but also contribute to the aerodynamic design to reduce energy consumption.
Coming to the interior of Seal 06DM-i, the clean color scheme and the flowing atmosphere lights give people a sense of ceremony as soon as they get on the bus. Deep obsidian, light sand gray two interior colors, not only simple and generous, large area of imitation leather interior material, it is also more convenient to take care of. On the center console, the BYD SEAL 06DM-i comes standard with an adaptive rotary hover PAD and an 8.8-inch instrument panel. The crystal stop bar under the center control and the mechanical button are concentrated together, and the functions used in driving such as shifting, starting, and driving mode selection are all here, which is convenient to operate and save space.
In terms of seat comfort, SEAL 06DM-i uses padding that takes into account support, wrapping and softness, and the wavy decorative line is also very much in line with the overall design style of the sea wind. At the same time, thanks to the wide body size of SEAL 06DM-i, the front and rear riding experience even has the feeling of surpassing the B-class car, especially the performance of the horizontal space, so that the driver and passenger can find their own comfortable sitting position. In addition, SEAL 06DM-i is equipped with automatic air conditioning and rear outlet, medium and high equipped models also provide double temperature zone control, from inside to outside, SEAL 06DM-i is not only trendy design, but also pay attention to practicality.
Of course, Seal 06DM-i can achieve such good sales results behind the core competitiveness: BYD’s fifth-generation DM technology. The comprehensive battery life of full fuel and full electricity can reach 2100km, and the fuel consumption of 100km in the NEDC condition is as low as 2.9L, which has considerable competitiveness in the current new energy market. EHS’s electric mixing system through fine design, so that the power density increased by about 70%, so that the working efficiency can be greatly improved, while reducing the loss of energy in the transmission process, open source and throttle, so that the energy consumption can be controlled in a relatively low range.
Another bright spot is that thermal management capabilities have also been improved. Byd’s fifth-generation DM technology elevates thermal management to the same level as power architecture. The full-temperature vehicle thermal management architecture integrates the thermal management of the front cabin, battery and cockpit, which can save energy consumption by up to 10% in the face of high temperatures. At low temperatures, the energy consumption can be saved by 8%. This allows the vehicle to maintain performance in different environments while also bringing comfortable driving feelings. In addition, BYD’s fifth-generation DM technology realizes the three-in-one of VCU (voltage control unit) and dual MCU (motor control unit), which fully improves the integration of the vehicle while the chip computing power is improved. It’s like you can do one thing without having to go to two places.
Seal 06DM-i launched a total of 5 models, there are 80km and 120km two pure electric range to choose from, the corresponding 120kW and 160kW two power motor, and the engine is 1.5L self-priming, transmission is E-CVT. In addition, the SEAL 06DM-i is standard equipped with the front McPherson + four-link rear independent suspension system, to ensure that the body has a relatively stable drivability, improve the response speed of the body, at the same time, the optimization of the bushings stiffness and the adjustment of the shock absorber damping, etc., can make the SEAL 06DM-i in the speed bumps can be more clean, reduce aftershocks, improve the comfort of driving.
In terms of passive safety, which everyone is more concerned about, the proportion of high-strength steel in the SEAL 06DM-i body is increased to 70.8%, which improves the stiffness and safety of the body, and also improves the safety protection of the vehicle personnel and battery packs. At the same time, the SEAL 06DM-i full system standard includes the front main passenger, front side airbag, side safety air curtain, a total of 6 airbags (high-equipped models also add the front central airbag). In addition, the blade battery used in SEAL 06DM-i is also a special power blade battery for intermixing, and it has passed the acupuncture test safely, and the battery material of lithium iron phosphate also has better safety and stability. Moreover, in terms of corrosion resistance that we are concerned about, the coating plate of SEAL 06DM-i body is also more than 70%, which can have better protection effect for the rust impact caused by scratches, bumps and so on.
Seal 06DM-i, save fuel and electricity, economical and easy to operate, and has the intelligent level of active protection of travel safety, can also reduce the fatigue of drivers. As the seal 06DM-i listed at the same time with Qin LDM-i, the two have their own characteristics, but also began to emerge in their respective market segments, compared with the past rough price war, perhaps like BYD began the change of volume value, in order to be more long-term. So what happens next, we will continue to pay attention to.
