"A new storm has emerged, how can it stagnate?" This lyric perfectly fits the changes in the domestic new energy market today. With the wave of new energy, more and more car companies are forced to follow the wave. Whether it is a fledgling new force or a veteran car company, it is known that if you want to stay in the market, you must learn to "change".
Today, Uncle Che takes -i, an old and young combination in the mixed market, as an example, and its corresponding price ranges are 22.99 ~ 238,900 and 214.8 ~ 329,800 respectively. It can be seen that the price overlap between the two is very obvious, and it is very difficult not to grab the market. So, who has changed these two models more thoroughly? Who is more acceptable to the market? Next, let Uncle Che find out for everyone.
Appearance: BYD Han DM-i has exquisite atmosphere.
Volkswagen PHEV continues the tradition
Looking at a car is like looking at a person. The quality of the first impression will determine whether the user pays the bill to a certain extent. Although the design language of BYD Han DM-i is not loved by everyone, the familiar "Long Yan Aesthetics" can really give people a strong impression of Chinese style. The large mouth-shaped matrix grille, matched with the starlight mesh, and supplemented with chrome trim strips in the details, is exquisite and atmospheric. The LED headlights on the two wings can also be regarded as "old friends". With the chrome trim in the middle, they have certain consistency.
Sideways are Uncle Che’s favorite design. The sliding back roof, double waistline body and dense spokes with "Han" LOGO perfectly present the style of a coupe. Of course, the necessary chromium plating elements are not absent.
The tail is also full of personality and interwoven with the penetrating LED strip, which forms a distinct recognition in the dark.
Let’s talk about Volkswagen Passat PHEV, which generally continues the design of fuel vehicles, but adds the exclusive logo of hybrid vehicles in the details. Linear mesh, blackened integrated LED headlights, and penetrating front surround basically successfully handle the popular elements. Although it doesn’t have the atmosphere of Han DM-i, it still has a good youthful sports temperament.
The sideways performance is quite satisfactory. Although the design of sliding back roof and double waistline is also adopted, the degree of integration is not as full as that of Han DM-i, and the recognition is not high.
The tail design is conventional and plain, and the three-dimensional through taillight group is surrounded by chrome trim. Only the PHEV logo at the tail can confirm that this is a new energy vehicle.
Space: BYD Han DM-i debuted with comfort.
Volkswagen Passat PHEV is quite satisfactory.
Since ancient times, space and size have not been separated. In order to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two models, it is necessary to compare the size gap between the two models.
Among them, BYD Han DM-i has a length, width and height of 4975(4995)/1910/1495 mm and a wheelbase of 2920mm, respectively. The length, width and height of Volkswagen Passat PHEV are 4948/1836/1469 mm and the wheelbase is 2871mm, respectively. It can be seen that the size of BYD Han DM-i crushes Volkswagen Passat PHEV in all directions, especially the extra width of 74mm, which makes the distance between the rear passengers more spacious and the driving experience more comfortable.
In terms of seat configuration, both models are equipped with front seat heating, electric adjustment and proportional seat reclining. But the difference is that BYD Han DM-i is additionally equipped with front seat ventilation, memory and other functions, and its configuration and comfort are better.
Power: BYD Han DM-i covers everything.
Volkswagen Passat PHEV performed poorly.
Han DM-i is equipped with a dedicated 1.5Ti turbocharged engine for Xiaoyun-Plug-in, with a maximum power of 102kW and a peak torque of 231Nm. Among them, the two models introduced by Han DM-i are both front-wheel models, which are matched with two kinds of permanent magnet synchronous motors with different adjustments. The maximum power is 145 kW and 160 kW respectively, and the peak torque is 316 Nm and 325 Nm respectively. The pure electric cruising range is 121 km and 242 km respectively, the official acceleration time of 100 km is 7.9 seconds, and the comprehensive cruising range can reach 1300 km. Whether it’s traveling in the city or running at high speed, there is not much endurance pressure, and the fuel consumption performance is also very eye-catching.
Let’s talk about the Volkswagen Passat PHEV. Its engine uses a 1.4T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 110 kW and a peak torque of 250 N m. For the motor, a single motor is provided in front of the stage. The total power of the motor is 85 kW, the total torque of the motor is 330N·m, the cruising range of pure electricity is 63 kilometers, and the official acceleration time of 100 kilometers is 7.7 seconds. The overall performance is indeed a big step behind Han DM-i, and the performance of Volkswagen Passat PHEV is somewhat lame in terms of power output, quietness and fuel consumption.
Che Shu concluded
After some comparison, we think that friends who pay attention to energy consumption, quietness and pure battery life can choose BYD Han DM-i without hesitation, because BYD does have a considerable advantage in the electronic control system; For those who are pursuing vehicle comfort and handling, Passat PHEV can be considered, because Volkswagen has always been very mature in vehicle adjustment, and it can achieve an ideal balance between handling and comfort, so these two models are only different in performance emphasis, and there is no absolute difference.
