The National Day holiday has passed, we also put into the normal work, from the holiday travel vehicles, we found that there are a lot of new energy vehicles, especially hybrid models, by the combination of engine and motor, can be charged can also be refueling, in addition to no endurance anxiety, long-distance travel can also reduce the cost of use.
Recently, BYD’s second-generation Song Pro DM(photo | configuration | asking price)-i has attracted good attention. The 2025 model will be launched on September 23, with 4 models, with a guidance price range of 112,800 to 142,800. All the models are equipped with 1.5L plug-in hybrid power, and the CLTC pure electric driving range is 75 km and 115 km respectively. The comprehensive driving range provides 1360 km and 1400 km versions of the model, compared with the previous model appearance, interior and other places have been adjusted, today we take the 2025 DM-i 115KM beyond type as an example (guide price 132,800), let’s see how the performance is? Is it an option at home?
In terms of appearance, the whole car adopts the longyan aesthetic design concept, which has become much more refined from the aspect of details. The front face has sharp edges and angles, and the air inlet grille is connected with the flow inlet. The interior is also blackened. The lower front bumper has a through-the-way silver trim, which I think is pretty nice.
Headlights have LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, adaptive far and near light, automatic headlights, headlight height adjustment and headlight delay off function.
From the side of the body, it looks full and capable, with A concave and convex waist line up and down, and a segmented design on the upper part, which I think is quite delicate. The suspension roof is also the current mainstream shape, A, B and C columns are wrapped with silver chrome bright strips, and the lower part is 18-inch aluminum alloy wheel hub. The original tire brand is Wanli. The exterior rearview mirror has the functions of electric adjustment, heating, electric folding and automatic folding of lock car.
The dimensions of the vehicle are 4735mm, 1860mm and 1710mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2712mm, which is positioned as a compact SUV.
The tail shape is full, with a slightly raised feeling. The design of the through-through tail light group is adopted, and the interior is also blackened, which has a good visual sense after lighting. The BUILD YOUR DREAMS of the previous model is changed to BYD letter logo, and the recognition is also increased. There is also a hidden exhaust layout.
As for the interior, compared with the previous Y-shaped layout, it has been changed to T-shaped cabin layout. From the perspective of the vision space of the main and co-driver seats, it looks spacious and capable, and the two colors match each other to give a fresh and elegant feeling. In the material part, the central control console is decorated with black bright material, and the air conditioner outlet is covered with silver chrome bright strip, which has an obvious exquisite feeling. The seat is wrapped in soft material, which is quite soft to sit on. The steering wheel is leather, which supports up and down + front and rear adjustment function.
The car and machine part, equipped with 8.8-inch full LCD dashboard and 12.8-inch central control screen, built-in DiLink system, with GPS navigation system, mobile phone interconnection mapping, Internet of vehicles, OTA upgrade, application store, karaoke functions, etc., I like this system, first of all, the central control screen can rotate and move, different applications have different visual sense. For example, the vertical rotation looks clearer when using navigation, and the landscape layout works well when watching movies. The voice recognition control system supports partition and continuous recognition. We did a multi-command test, and I think the system responded well.
Online applications include Kugou music, Ximalaya, Kui Music, wechat, Bilibili, etc., especially the online karaoke function. With six speakers, I chose the accompaniment option.
The vehicle is equipped with lane departure warning, forward collision warning, active braking, lane keeping assistance, lane center keeping, tire pressure display, front and rear parking radar, 360-degree panoramic image, transparent chassis, full-speed adaptive cruise, automatic parking and other configurations.
It is equipped with L2 level driving assistance system, as well as 6 outside cameras and 6 ultrasonic radar. This system has obvious recognition ability. When we follow the test driving experience, the system can identify pedestrians and vehicles in front of us, and if it exceeds the safe distance, the system will actively intervene to brake.
This car seat is made of imitation leather material, the main driver seat supports electric adjustment, the main driver seat supports front and rear movement, high and low adjustment and back Angle adjustment, the co-driver seat also supports front and rear movement and back Angle adjustment, and the rear seat supports 40: 60 ratio put down, the seat is covered with bright soft material, the middle longitudinal extension, sitting on the top of the leg support effect is obvious, my height is 1 meters 80 sitting in the back of the experience, the remaining leg space is about two punches, the remaining head space is more than a punch, as a family car, I think the performance is good.
In terms of power, it is equipped with 1.5L plug-in hybrid power, in which the maximum power of the engine is 74 kW, and the peak torque of the engine is 126 n · m. It is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor, with a total power of 120 kW and a total torque of 210 N · m. The pure electric range of CLTC is 115 km. The transmission is matched with the E-CVT CVT, and the chassis is matched with the front McPherson independent suspension and the rear multi-link independent suspension.
We have experienced this power system, first equipped with BYD’s fifth generation DM hybrid technology, NEDC 100 kilometers of power loss fuel consumption of 3.79L, when we drove in the city, we switched to pure electric mode, starting with a strong momentum, the body appeared light and smooth, when the speed of 60km/h, I deliberately stepped on the accelerator deep and continued to accelerate, the power response is obvious. This set of power can meet household needs, the minimum steering radius is 5.8m, when passing a smaller curve in the urban area, only need to make a circle without moving the vehicle back and forth, and the steering wheel will not be heavy at low speed, I think the operation is smooth, the chassis suspension adjustment is close and orderly, because some small stone vibration can also be actively filtering. And when driving at high speed, it appears to be practical, and the overall performance is quite good.
Summary
As a family compact SUV, the appearance of this car has been adjusted, and I think it has become much more refined. The layout of the interior is in line with the current mainstream embrace design, and the soft materials are covered. In addition, it can rotate and move and the central control screen, which is quite rich in entertainment. What do you think? Welcome to comment and discuss!
