2024 BYD Han EV Champion Edition Review: Redefining Large Electric Sedan Benchmarks?
Share
I. Exterior Design: Balancing Eastern Aesthetics & Aerodynamics
The new Han EV Champion Edition retains the "Dragon Face" family design language, introducing Glacier Blue paint. Its sealed front grille pairs with slim LED crystalline headlights, achieving a drag coefficient of 0.21Cd. The sleek fastback profile and hidden door handles are complemented by 19-inch low-drag wheels (three styles available). The rear features a "Chinese knot" LED taillight and subtle ducktail spoiler, blending elegance with sportiness.
II. Cabin Experience: Fusion of Tech & Luxury
Interior Design: The wraparound cockpit features Nappa leather seats (optional suede roof). The 15.6-inch adaptive rotating touchscreen runs DiLink 4.0, supporting 5G and full-scenario voice control.
Smart Features: Standard DiPilot driver-assist system includes ACC adaptive cruise control and AEB autonomous emergency braking. New additions: APA auto-parking and highway NOA navigation assist.
Space: A 2920mm wheelbase ensures ample legroom. Rear seats offer 11-position electric adjustment, independent climate controls, USB ports, and privacy glass.
III. Driving Performance: Dual-Motor AWD Powerhouse
Our test model's dual permanent magnet synchronous motors deliver 380kW (517hp) and 700N·m torque, with a 0-100km/h time of 3.9 seconds. In Sport mode, instant torque response and strong G-forces persist, with three regenerative braking levels. The DiSus-C electronically controlled suspension maintains composure in corners.
IV. Range Test: Blade Battery Limits Pushed
CLTC Range: The 715km variant uses an 85.4kWh Blade Battery, achieving 89% urban and 82% highway range efficiency.
Charging: 180kW DC fast-charging adds 30%-80% in 22 minutes. Pulse self-heating tech improves cold-weather charging by 40%.
