7. The energy density of the battery system is 140Wh/kg.

[New car details]

1. the evolution of 1.Dragon Face design.

Han EV ※

BYD Han EV adopts a four-door coupe design as a whole, which has been upgraded and optimized on the basis of the family-style Dragon Face design language. Thanks to the body design concept of "front circle and rear", the drag coefficient of the new car is only 0.233Cd. The front of the new car adopts a closed grille, and the long and narrow LED light groups are connected by an iconic Dragon Face strip, and the LOGO position in the middle is engraved with the "Han" logo. There is a flat trapezoidal air inlet below, and a triangular air inlet on both sides. The penetrating semi-enclosed decorative strip further increases the texture and recognition of the front of the car.

On the side of the car body, the coupe-shaped lines are very obvious, and the door handle is hidden. The front of the D-pillar is decorated with unique chrome plating, which is said to be inspired by "Long Lin". The new car adopts a brand-new five-position wheel hub, which can effectively reduce wind resistance. The shape of the rear part of the car body is full and the lines are rich. A straight through taillight is used, and the middle part is marked with "BUILD YOUR DREAMS". In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4980mm, 1910mm and 1495mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2920mm.

Chinese DM ※

Compared with the grille-free front face of Han EV,Han DM models have different front face modeling schemes, using bright large mouth front grille similar to Qin Pro, Song Pro, Tang and other models, and using advanced gray car paint.

At the same time, the car will also provide two kinds of tyre size, 245/50 R18 and 245/45 R19, for consumers to choose from. The new car will provide panoramic skylights and various styles of rim shapes.

Wind resistance design of super-running stage ※

BYD Han successfully completed the wind tunnel test at the Shanghai Ground Vehicle Wind Tunnel Center, the busiest wind tunnel in Asia. The test results show that Han’s drag coefficient is only 0.233. This fully shows that BYD has reached the world’s leading technical level in body design and engineering manufacturing technology, and at the same time, it also shows BYD’s development ideas for Han models: to build an elegant style, collect BYD’s top technical resources, and build a new generation flagship car that conforms to the concept of low carbon and environmental protection.

Byd Han can achieve a drag coefficient of 0.233 (the drag coefficient of Tesla Model S is 0.24), which first benefits from the high integration of first-class modeling design and pneumatic engineering. Wolfgang Eiger, global design director of BYD, said: At the beginning of development, Han clearly wanted to realize the integration of beautiful design and high performance. Therefore, from the beginning, modeling design took the realization of ultra-low drag coefficient as an important goal.

Byd Han’s smooth lines from the front of the car, the roof to the rear of the car, every inch of the direction is based on the full consideration and in-depth study of the impact on airflow. This means that the resistance caused by the friction between the air and the car body is minimized, and at the same time, it will not cause the air to be thrown away from the car body, resulting in a low pressure area on the roof, reducing the downforce obtained by the car body and affecting the handling stability.

In the design of the front face, Han’s front cabin cover starts from a lower position than before, and the rounded arc outlines the smooth lines of the front face outline, which not only brings greater pressure difference between the upper and lower parts of the car body, but also obtains greater downforce, further ensuring the fit between the airflow and the car body.

Subsequently, the drop-shaped rearview mirror, hidden door handle and other designs fully integrated practical functions and low wind resistance characteristics, which cooperated with the smooth passage of airflow. Starting from the C-pillar, the upper part of the cabin gradually narrows, forming a beautiful and powerful wide shoulder shape, and also continuing the airflow direction that fits the car body.

Pneumatic separation of the tail, through the elegant and powerful pneumatic separation design on both sides of the tail, the airflow on both sides of the car body leaves almost in a straight line after coming to the tail, avoiding being involved in the vortex area of the tail, and realizing the ingenious integration of beautiful design and low wind resistance.

2. Interior Chinese aesthetic design (importent information)

The overall design of BYD Han center console is balanced and symmetrical, with the large-size suspended central control panel as the center, extending to the ends of the left and right door panels along the central axis, outlining a core line that connects the first half of the cockpit, creating a full sense of embrace.

According to the manufacturer, this brand-new design language originated from the Forbidden City complex. Designers drew a lot of inspiration from the architectural arrangement and unique structural techniques in the Forbidden City, making BYD Han a perfect integration of Chinese architectural aesthetics and technological trends.

The whole interior of the new car is designed with red and black contrast colors, and red leather decoration is added in many details of the steering wheel and door panel lights, with all-red seats, which further enhances the luxury and exquisiteness of the car. The dashboard in the car adopts full LCD design, and the steering wheel also adopts a brand-new double flat-bottomed design. At the same time, the "2.0 LANE ASSISTANT" is displayed at the bottom of the steering wheel, which may indicate that a more advanced assisted driving system will be equipped.

The co-pilot’s front decorative panel is also integrated with Long Lin-style atmosphere lights, and the air outlet of the air conditioner has a relatively "staggered" position arrangement, so that they are in a zigzag layout in spatial structure. BYD’s "BYD-HEART" design concept is adopted in the gear lever mining area, and all the main function buttons in the car are integrated on this panel. Besides gear shifting, it also has the functions of electronic handbrake, one-button start, volume adjustment, vehicle start/stop, mode switching, etc., which not only reduces the button setting on the center console, but also increases the convenience of the driver’s operation.

The sports seat is ergonomically designed, which is more in line with the human body curve, and can help relieve the fatigue caused by sitting for a long time. The seat is made of Nappa leather with the "Long Lin" pattern outlined by two-way stitching, which is in harmony with the elements in the car.

3. New Ferrous lithium phosphate "Blade Battery"

The NEDC cruising range of BYD Han EV is 550km (dual-motor model) and 605km (single-motor model), and the energy density of the battery system is 140 Wh/kg. The NEDC pure electric cruising range of Han DM (plug-in hybrid version) is 81km.

Han EV battery & battery life ※

BYD Han EV provides dual motors and single motors according to different configurations. Under NEDC standard, the pure battery life is 550km (dual motors) and 605km (single motors) respectively. The energy density of the battery system is 140Wh/kg. This car adopts Ferrous lithium phosphate "Blade Battery" newly developed by BYD, which ensures high energy density and long service life, and also reduces the manufacturing cost of the battery.

Nissan Sylphy

Sales in December: 46,728 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by 2.93%

Although Xuanyi lost the monthly sales champion in the car market at the end of 2021, it can easily win the annual sales champion in the car market with the annual sales data of more than 420,000 vehicles. Compared with winning the annual sales crown without any suspense, it may be another thing that made Dongfeng Nissan happier at the end of last year. The new version of Sylphy, Sylphy e-POWER, successfully tested the water. In December, 2021, Sylphy e-POWER achieved sales of 6,282 vehicles in the first full month of listing in China (during the Guangzhou Auto Show last year). As a Sylphy with a sales volume of 138,900, the market start of Sylphy e-POWER was quite successful. E-POWER is a similar extended-range power system, which is driven by a motor, and the engine is simply used to generate electricity. However, unlike extended-range electric vehicles, Sylphy e-POWER cannot be externally charged, so it does not belong to the category of electric vehicles.

Volkswagen LAVIDA

Sales in December: 35,905 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by -23.41%

Chip shortage is not all bad for car companies. Take Volkswagen as an example. Due to the shortage of production capacity caused by the lack of core in mid-2021, the source of terminal cars has become tense, and the market conditions of its various models have improved significantly, and the terminal concessions for the main models have shrunk in an all-round way. LaVida is the pillar of SAIC Volkswagen in the car market. In the middle of last year, because of the shortage of car sources, LaVida’s terminal discount directly recovered about 10,000 yuan. For manufacturers, although the sales data at that time were not good-looking, the profits they got were higher. However, this situation only lasted for February and March. As the supply of LaVida gradually stabilized, the terminal discount was re-released. At present, in the terminal market, the discount of LaVida is generally above 30,000 yuan.

Toyota Corolla

Sales in December: 30,677 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by -0.47%

After the replacement of TNGA architecture, the competitiveness of Corolla’s products has been improved a lot. The rear suspension has been changed from torsion beam to independent suspension, and the active and passive safety configuration has also been improved. The market effect is immediate. After the replacement, Corolla’s market popularity has also gone further, and it can often hand over more than 30,000 monthly sales results. In addition, it is worth mentioning that in order to meet the increasingly stringent carbon emission pressure, Toyota also equipped its main model, Corolla, with a three-cylinder engine in the domestic market, but did not cancel the four-cylinder version. The three-cylinder model is aimed at users who are more sensitive to price, and the four-cylinder turbocharged model is aimed at users who have higher requirements on quality and performance. From this point of view, it must be said that Toyota has thoroughly studied the China market.

Tesla Model 3

Sales in December: 30,289 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by 16.05%

Tesla’s brand charm is only one of the reasons why Model 3 can continue to be popular in the China market. On the other hand, it is difficult to find an opponent who can match the product strength at the same price, which is the key to this car’s killing in the terminal market. Even though there have been public complaints and user rights protection incidents, Tesla’s popularity has basically not been affected. Choose an electric car with a budget of 300,000 yuan. After going around, you will find that there are not many other better options except Tesla Model 3. At present, in the domestic electric vehicle market, Tesla Model3 in the middle and high-end market is as strong as Hongguang MINIEV in the low-end market.

In the domestic B-class auto market in 2021, the competition for the monthly sales champion has been in Camry and
In the first half, the Accord was more dominant as a whole, while Camry won the championship with its strong strength in the second half. In December 2021, Camry was the only model in the B-class automobile market that entered the top ten list of car sales. The empowerment of TNGA architecture is definitely the most important reason for its popularity. While retaining the characteristics of Toyota’s durable and fuel-efficient products, the new generation of Camry has redesigned its appearance, breaking the stereotype of mediocre Japanese car design, catering to the preferences of young consumers with a more sporty attitude, and the accumulated user reputation in the domestic market has jointly contributed to Camry’s market performance in 2021.

December sales growth: 27.6%

From the sales trend in 2021, it can be clearly seen that Emgrand must have experienced some major events in this year. Yes, this model that once carried the banner of its own car ushered in a model replacement in 2021. Before the listing of the fourth-generation Emgrand in September last year, the monthly sales of Emgrand had dropped to around 10,000 vehicles, which was the historical freezing point in recent years (except for the situation that was seriously affected by the epidemic in February and March of 2020). Fortunately, after the completion of the replacement, the market of Emgrand recovered quickly, and at the end of last year, it had returned to a high level of nearly 25,000 vehicles per month. Using Geely’s BMA architecture, recalibrating the powertrain and replacing it with a set of similar
The shape and interior of Emgrand has also borrowed many elements from Xingrui. The change of the fourth generation Emgrand can be said to be all-round. Although the pricing has been slightly improved, the defects cannot be concealed. Emgrand has once again set off the banner of independent cars in the field of fuel vehicles.

Byd Qin PLUS

Sales in December: 24,287 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by -13.73%

The reason why I want to emphasize that Emgrand has re-launched the banner of autonomous cars in the field of fuel vehicles is of course for a reason, because when Emgrand fell into the market trough before and after the replacement, new star-rated autonomous cars have appeared in the domestic new energy auto market, BYD Qin PLUS (including
and
) is one of the most representative. From the soaring sales trend in 2021, we can see how popular BYD Qin PLUS is, and this data only reflects the production volume of Qin PLUS, which is far from the actual demand of the end market. In fact, Qin PLUS, especially Qin PLUS DM-i models, have long been out of stock, and it has become normal to wait for a single half year to pick up the car. Recently, it was reported that in order to meet the strong market demand, BYD is expanding its factory in Xi ‘an (mainly producing Qin series and Song series), and Qin PLUS may bring more market surprises.

Volkswagen SAGITAR

Sales in December: 23,479 vehicles

Sales volume in December increased by 10.69%

When sagitar first used the MQB platform, it was intended to make a difference in the A+ class market. Not only was the product upgraded, but the price was a little higher than that of ordinary A-class cars, but the market feedback it received was not ideal. In the end, it was only possible to stabilize sales through substantial terminal concessions, and since then it has embarked on the main cost-effective route. In 2021, FAW-Volkswagen was seriously short of cores, and its main models could not be supplied normally for several months. Sagitar was one of them, and its monthly sales once fell below 10,000 vehicles. It was not until the production capacity recovered in the fourth quarter that it surrendered the monthly sales of over 20,000 vehicles. The rapid recovery of market performance shows that sagitar has no shortage of customers in the domestic market. After all, in the A-class sedan market, sagitar’s product strength still has advantages. As long as the production capacity is guaranteed and the terminal concessions are enough, sagitar can easily rush to the high market.

Toyota Ralink

Sales in December: 21,836 vehicles

December sales growth: -4.3%

After a period of market downturn, Lei Ling was able to hand over monthly sales of over 20,000 vehicles in the last two months of last year, mainly due to the full-scale outbreak of hybrid models, especially in December last year, Lei Ling hybrid models handed over monthly sales of over 10,000 vehicles (10,232). For a long time in the past, the domestic oil-electric hybrid market has indeed been monopolized by Japanese hybrid cars, but it is quite rare that the monthly sales of hybrid models have exceeded 10,000 (in the past, the domestic oil-electric hybrid market was limited). It must be said that the independent "war" hybrid wave that emerged in 2021 made domestic consumers begin to re-understand hybrid cars, which also brought a good boost to the entire hybrid car market.

At the 2024 Beijing Auto Show, the new Tiggo 8 was officially unveiled. The new car adopted a brand-new design language, and the whole car was more refined. This new car will also be sold to overseas markets in the future.

　　The appearance of the new Tiggo 8 is quite different from Chery’s current products. The front of the car adopts a two-color design, and the interior of the large-size mesh adopts a diamond grille, which looks good in quality. The headlights on both sides are split, and the lower lights blend with the black area, which has a strong sense of layering.

　　The design of the side is similar to that of the existing model as a whole. It is reported that the wheelbase has been lengthened, and the car has been replaced with a hidden door handle and equipped with multi-spoke wheels. At the rear of the car, it will adopt a penetrating taillight design, in which the brand LOGO is embedded. The design of the tailgate is also relatively simple, and the license plate area is placed in the rear enclosure.

　　The design inside the car is closer to the style of new energy vehicles, and with the beige interior, it looks very simple. It is equipped with LCD instrument and independent central control large screen, and we can also see wireless charging panel with air outlet and mode conversion knob.

　　Judging from the tail mark of 390T, it is expected that it will still be equipped with a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 187kW and a maximum torque of 390 Nm, or a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. In the future, the car will also launch a new energy version.
