Buying a BYD car is a test for consumers.
Because, there are more car series, and the models are more chaotic, and the light models may have to be studied for a long time.
Open the BYD Auto App.
Any series feels like there are no less than ten models.
比如，秦、秦燃油版、秦EV、秦Pro 、秦Pro DM、秦PLUS DM-i、秦PLUS DM-i冠军版、秦PLUS DM-i荣耀版、秦PLUS EV、秦L DM-i。
I just ask you, can you tell the difference?
Fortunately, there are quite a few models that have been discontinued and are history, however, its name has been retained forever.
However, even with the models currently on sale, it may not be easy to figure it out completely.
For example, what is the difference between the three models of Qin PLUS DM-i, the Champion Edition and the Glory Edition?
秦PLUS DM-i与秦L DM-i又有什么区别？
You may have to open the configuration table and study it for a long time, because the prices of the two cars also overlap.
Now, the new Qin PLUS DM-i equipped with the DM-i 5.0 system will be on the market soon, I don't know how it will be named at that time? Pro and Plus are already available, and now they can only be named Ultra, Qin Ultra DM-i, which represents the ultimate fuel economy and ultimate battery life.
When it comes to chaos, I personally think that BYD's most chaotic model is none other than the Song series models.
As we all know, BYD cars are divided into two series, "Dynasty Series" and "Ocean Series", and they belong to two platforms for sale.
Dynasty Net, mainly named after Chinese dynasties.
For example, the Qin, Han, Tang, Song, and Yuan ...... all belong to the dynasty network, and the front face is mainly characterized by the "Dragon Face" dragon face, which is very recognizable, and the tail lights are mainly characterized by "Chinese knots", which are also very beautiful.
The ocean network is mainly named after marine animals and marine ships.
For example, dolphins, seals, seagulls, sea lions, and so on.
Destroyer 05, Frigate 07...... Models.
The front face is mainly based on the "seal" shape, as for whether it looks good or not, the benevolent see the benevolent, the wise see the wise, some people think it is quite individual, and some people think that the "cat in the cat" is not good-looking.
Then, there is a car in the ocean network, named Song PLUS, and the front face is also the classic "Dragon Face" dragon face of the dynasty network, which looks a bit nondescript in the ocean network, so this model should obviously belong to the dynasty network in terms of appearance and name, but it is sold on the ocean network.
This is also incomprehensible to many people.
Then, I got a little bit of the ins and outs.
Here's how it goes (webcast version).
At the earliest, around 2018, BYD only had 4S stores selling Dynasty Network series models, which turned out to be just in time for the sales of new energy vehicles to take off.
As a result, in 2019, BYD launched a new "e-network" sales channel, mainly focusing on economical pure electric vehicles.
As a result, the sales of "e-network" did not meet expectations, and then, in 2021, at the Guangzhou Auto Show, BYD officially announced that it would change "e-network" to "ocean network", and sell it side by side with Dynasty Network, mainly pure electric.
Then, with the launch of the new Qin PLUS DM-i car, it instantly became a hit, and then, then Han DM-i and Tang DM-i are all popular ......, but the ocean network still has not improved, mainly because there is no "hot model".
As a result, many people were unexpected, Song PLUS DM-i actually became BYD's best-selling popular model, and Ocean Network made its own fame with this model.
With such a hot-selling model, even if Ocean Net has its own popular models, dolphins, seals, and seagulls, it is not willing to return it to the Dynasty Internet Cafe, probably to avoid too much chaos.
反正，宋PLUS DM-i一直就留在了海洋网。
Then, in order to make this car more like the son of "Ocean Net", when the Song PLUS DM-i Champion Edition model was launched, a big "facelift" was carried out on this model, including changing the face, and changing the dragon face of the front face to a "cat face", which is also a bit like Porsche, the "Song" Chinese character logo on the front of the car was replaced with the "BYD" English logo, and the headlight shape is similar to that of a seal.
There is also the interior, which has also been changed to the style of the Ocean Net model.
For example, sports seats, crystal knobs, door handles, and so on.
In short, BYD is "dynastyizing" this car at all costs, but the name is still called Song, and it is rumored that it will be changed to Corvette 05, but I don't know if it's true or not.
I think the main reason is that I am afraid of affecting the sales of this car.
After all, the corvette 07, which is a grade higher than the Song PLUS DM-i, has not been selling very well.
The Song PLUS DM-i is on the ocean network, but other models in the Song series, such as the Song Pro and Song L, are still sold on Dynasty Network.
Therefore, the Song series of models may be the most "chaotic" model of BYD so far, I think, the reason for this embarrassing situation, mainly due to early planning problems, may also be because BYD Automobile, on its own new energy vehicle sales growth rate did not predict accurately.
I didn't expect that sales would explode so quickly, and a new car would explode.
In 2021, the sales volume was only 700,000 units, and in 2023, the sales volume will already exceed 3 million units, which no one could have imagined.
If BYD Auto can predict the models of the ocean network, such as seals, dolphins, seagulls and other models, they can also become "explosive", and there may be no need for Song PLUS to support the scene, and there will be no today's seemingly "chaotic" situation.
Of course, for consumers, just look at the car.
As for whether it is a dynasty network or an ocean network, you don't need to care too much about it at all, after all, they are all BYD's cars.
That is, sometimes, it is easy to run to the wrong place (including myself), the first time I went to see the car, I went to Dynasty Network, and then, looking for Song PLUS DM-i for a long time, the sales told me that I was ...... in the 4S store of Ocean Network.
In any case, the Song PLUS DM-i is a very good car, and it is relatively balanced in all aspects.
Sales speak for themselves.
