On December 17th, BYD "Qin" went public.

  On the evening of December 17, 2013, BYD’s new plug-in hybrid vehicle Qin was officially released in Beijing. The new car is available in flagship and distinguished models, with a minimum price of 189,800 yuan. As a vehicle driven by gasoline engine and battery, BYD-Qin hybrid mode has an acceleration time of 5.9 seconds, a top speed of 185 km/h and a comprehensive fuel consumption of 1.6L.

  Before the press conference, BYD also organized Qin’s track test activities, in which Qin’s best performance in 0-200 km acceleration was only 7.82 seconds.

  Qin continued the design of the previous concept car, which was bolder and sharper in the body lines, and chrome-plated decoration was added on both sides of the front bumper. The headlight group was equipped with LED daytime running lights and headlights with adjustable lenses. In addition, an oval fog lamp is added to the inside of the bumper. The taillight group is also very novel. In addition to the brand and model identification, there are special signs indicating the identity of its dual-mode electric vehicle.

  In terms of body size, the length/width/height of the car is 4740*1770*1480mm and the wheelbase is 2670mm, which is similar to BYD’s sharp figure.

  BYD Qin’s configuration is very high, and it comes standard with remote driving function. It also adds cloud service, which can realize remote control of vehicles through 3G signals. There are also panoramic images, seat ventilation+heating and even seat memory configurations. In terms of safety, Qin is equipped with 12 airbags in addition to active safety devices such as brake priority system (BOS), ABS+EBD, ESP and tire pressure detection system.

  Qin adopted BYD’s DM parallel mode dual-mode hybrid system, which can be driven by pure electric or gasoline+electric mode.

  The new car is equipped with a 1.5L in-cylinder direct injection+turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 113kw and a maximum torque of 240 N m. In addition, there is a motor with a rated power of 40kW and a maximum power of 110kW to match it. BYD Qin adopted a self-developed 6-speed DCT dual-clutch automatic gearbox in the transmission system.

  In addition, BYD also provides a six-year or 150,000-kilometer long warranty for the whole vehicle and a lifetime free warranty for batteries. The sincere after-sales service policy provides another reason for consumers to choose BYD Qin.

  BYD Qin, which was originally planned to die a month ago, was postponed to this day to cooperate with the introduction of new energy policy. According to the subsidy policy for new energy vehicles, the purchase of BYD Qin will enjoy 35,000 yuan of state subsidies and different degrees of local subsidies. It is estimated that the actual price of "Qin" will be less than 150,000 yuan in most cities. When buying BYD in Shenzhen, the lowest price after enjoying the subsidy is only 119,800 yuan.
