In the latest release of the “Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturer and Product Announcements” catalog of China, a noteworthy addition has caught the attention of automotive enthusiasts. The report gives details of the new BYD Song PLUS DM-i model, marking the 383rd batch of announcements.

The new version keeps the same overall design as the previous one but makes noticeable changes to the rear details and swaps the “BUILD YOUR DREAMS” logo for the “BYD” emblem. Despite these changes, the vehicle stays the same size, measuring 4775mm long, 1890mm wide, and 1670mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2765mm.

The latest BYD Song PLUS DM-i model now features the “BYD472QC” engine while keeping its 1.5-liter plug-in hybrid setup. However, the engine’s maximum power output has decreased slightly from 81 kilowatts to 74 kilowatts. In contrast, the electric motor in the new model shows an increase in power, capable of delivering up to 160 kilowatts compared to the prior model’s 145 kilowatts.

For prospective buyers, the pricing structure remains competitive and diverse, catering to varying preferences and needs. The existing Song PLUS DM-i Honor Edition, priced at 129,800 yuan, offers a range of options including the 71km luxury model, 110km flagship model, 110km flagship PLUS, 150km flagship PLUS, and 150km flagship PLUS 5G, with prices ranging up to 169,800 yuan.

This comprehensive update highlights BYD’s commitment to innovation and responsiveness to market demands, positioning the new Song PLUS DM-i model as a compelling choice.
