Chronology
PredecessorBYD G6

The BYD Han (Chinese: 比亚迪汉) is a full-size / executive sedan (E-segment) manufactured by the Chinese manufacturer BYD Auto since 2020, available in an battery electric variant and a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) variant. It is part of BYD's "Dynasty" series passenger vehicles, and gets its name from the Han Dynasty, the first golden age of Imperial China.

The Han was previewed by the E-SEED GT concept, while the first pictures of the production model were released in January 2020.

Since 2021, a version dedicated for ride-hailing purposes is available as the BYD e9.

Overview

Concept

The Han was preceded by the E-SEED GT concept car, presented at the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show. The concept version featured gullwing doors, an all-wheel drive layout, and a 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) time of less than 4 seconds.[1]

Han DM

The Han DM ("dual mode") is the plug-in hybrid variant of the BYD Han. The Han DM is developed on the four-wheel drive DM3 platform, with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that produces 180 kW (241 hp; 245 PS) from its rear permanent-magnet synchronous motor and 141 kW (189 hp) from the 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, bringing the combined output power to 321 kW (430 hp; 436 PS). It has a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.7 seconds.

Based on the NEDC driving cycle, the combined fuel consumption is 1.4 L/100 km (71.4 km/L; 201.8 mpg‑imp; 168.0 mpg‑US), and the fuel consumption of the internal combustion engine is 5.9 L/100 km (16.9 km/L; 47.9 mpg‑imp; 39.9 mpg‑US).[2]

There are two versions of Han DM: the basic "Luxury" model (豪华型) and a more equipped "Majestic" model (尊贵型) with upgraded stereo systems and extra comfort options.

Han EV

The Han EV is the battery electric variant of the BYD Han, and all its models are designed with a 76.9 kWh battery pack, which claims to be rapid-chargeable from 30 to 80% in 25 minutes. The Han EV utilises a new proprietary lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery design which BYD dubbed the blade battery, claiming to take up less space than a conventional LFP battery of the same energy capacity.[4]

The base model Han EV, called the "Extended Range" model (超长续航版), is front-wheel drive with a reported all-electric range (NEDC) of 605 km (376 mi). It is powered by a 163 kW (219 hp; 222 PS) electric motor that can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 7.9 seconds. There are two versions of this base model: the basic "Luxury" model (豪华型), while the more featured "Majestic" model with extra advanced driver-assistance systems, blind spot detection, better stereo systems and other comfort options.

The "Flagship" model (旗舰型) is a four-wheel drive with an additional 200 kW (268 hp; 272 PS) rear motor, bringing the total power output to 363 kW (487 hp; 494 PS), and reportedly can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 3.9 seconds.[5] It is rated at a NEDC all-electric range of 550 km (340 mi) with more added features than the "Majestic" model.[6]
