BYD SongPro DM -Hybrid PHEV

【Space Performance】Overall, it's okay, but after driving several times, there are two aspects I don't like. One is that the cup holder is placed behind the gear shift, so putting a bottle of water there affects shifting. Secondly, after adjusting to a more comfortable driving position, the space between the steering wheel and the seat is a bit narrow. For example, when getting a card on the highway, I have to lean forward, and my legs feel a bit cramped.

【Charging Time】For fast charging, it took me an hour to charge from 16% to 98%, which is longer than expected and what the official stated.

【Driver Assistance】I have only used it twice so far. I feel that L2 driver assistance is sufficient. After all, the purpose of driver assistance is to relieve fatigue during long-distance driving. I don't need to step on the accelerator, and it can do adaptive cruise control, which is very good. However, it's still safe to keep the steering wheel in my own hands.

【Range and Energy Consumption】I have charged it twice so far, and after a comprehensive calculation, its actual pure electric range should be around 120-140km, which is a decent performance.

The car infotainment system is quite intelligent, and the connectivity is also decent; the navigation works very well, especially when viewing the map on the vertical screen. The interior space is relatively large, but the trunk is a bit small. The range capability is quite impressive; the urban range is relatively realistic, but the highway range is seriously less than the displayed value, or rather, the highway displayed range is inaccurate. However, it is still excellent, and its energy-saving capability is beyond doubt. When I drive it myself, even at 150 km/h on the highway, it still drives very well, and the overall comfort is great; the double-glazed windows provide excellent sound insulation. The charging speed is rather slow; when the battery is around 20%, it basically takes an hour to charge, and the car's charging is not powerful enough, with a maximum of only nearly 18 kW. The intelligent features are well done: it can pre-start the air conditioning, unlock remotely, WeChat forwarded addresses can be directly sent to the car's navigation, and functions like watching dramas are also quite good.

【Space Performance】
The space performance is very good, my wife is very satisfied and keeps saying that this car was a good purchase. The rear seats can be folded down, which can be used as a bed for the two children when going camping, which is especially worth praising.
【Range and Energy Consumption】
It is indeed very fuel-efficient. I have driven 1000 kilometers so far, filled up a tank of fuel, did two fast charges and two slow charges, and the fuel tank currently shows 57% remaining. In the urban area, the EV mode experience is very good.
【Driver Assistance】
The driver assistance does not feel very outstanding.
【Smart Cockpit】
As mentioned earlier, the smart driving experience is very good, capable of active avoidance and lane changing.
【Charging Time】
Fast charging takes an hour. There is a fast charging station one kilometer near my home, which is very convenient. That's why I chose the 115 Chaoyue model.
【Most Satisfied】
Space, range
【Maintenance】
It is not yet time for the first maintenance.
