The BYD Song Plus DM-i represents a different approach to electrification. Instead of a pure EV, it uses BYD’s DM-i super hybrid technology to combine electric daily driving with unlimited gasoline range.
DM-i Technology Explained
DM-i (Dual Mode Intelligent) uses a highly efficient 1.5L Atkinson-cycle engine paired with two electric motors. The system prioritizes electric driving, with the engine acting primarily as a generator.
Impressive Efficiency
The Song Plus DM-i achieves fuel consumption as low as 3.8L/100km when the battery is depleted. With a full tank and charge, the total range exceeds 1,200 km.
Electric-First Driving
With an 18.3 kWh battery, the Song Plus DM-i offers up to 110 km of pure electric range – enough for most daily commutes without using any gasoline.
