This Seal 07 DM-i is quite incredible; I am not surprised to see that this PHEV system is so popular. BYD's sales last month proved the popularity of these vehicles. I can't believe that BYD is at a run rate of >5 million vehicles per year. Great review, Harris!

That is about the only argument left to buy a Toyota, hoping for better resale value. As for me, I keep the money saved up front in my pocket and continue to save at the pump while Toyota drivers drive obsolete cars which cost more to buy and drive.
DM-i is a power-split system so it can run in many modes: EV-only, ICE-only, parallel hybrid, serial hybrid. -EV-only. When the battery is charged, there's no need for the ICE, so all energy is drawn from the battery and the e-motor drives the wheels. -Parallel hybrid: Both ICE and e-motor drive the wheels simultaneously. Usually to provide maximum power. I think BYD avoids using this mode, because it's not very efficient. -Serial hybrid: The ICE is on, but not driving the wheels. Instead it's driving a generator that produces electricity. This electricity is send to the e-motor directly, first charging the battery would incur conversion losses. This mode is interesting because of the wildly inefficient nature of ICE. An ICE with 40% thermal efficiency in optimal conditions can drop as low as 10% efficiency in city driving. "Optimal conditions" is usually a very narrow working window. When driving both the load on the car (rolling and wind resistance, inclinations, speed changes) and the driver input (requested power/throttle position) constantly change. In serial mode, the ICE picks an efficient working point and stays there, despite the changes in load and driver input. So it produces roughly the amount of electricity needed for the e-motor, but not exactly. If there's excess electricity, it will charge the battery. If there's too little, power will be drawn from the battery. If the latter situation lasts too long, the ICE will choose a different working point to provide more power. This way the ICE always runs close to its theoretical maximum thermal efficiency. -ICE-only. In some driving conditions, the load and driver input correspond very closely to the optimal ICE working point. In that case (usually constant speed cruising at moderate pace), the conversion losses of generating electricity are greater than running the ICE just around its optimal window. Then the ICE can power the wheels directly without the e-motor active. I don't know if BYD has a setting that forces the ICE to run constantly and charge the battery. I don't see the benefit, because it's quite an expensive way to charge. Especially in China, where electricity from a socket is less than $0.10/kWh. Of course the car will regen when slowing down.
Toyota rules the world with ICE cars. Only Japan can be competition for Japan....but the Chinese are definitely catching up. Definitely better than American cars.

Swappable batteries only makes sense with a common standard. Future batteries will charge as fast as a battery swap. I don’t think that swappable batteries will be the future.
I don’t think it’s just about speed of charge, the problem a lot of second EVs have is battery degradation and the amount it will cost to change them, now imagine if I can just easily swap it
eh? Bro forgot Honda Accord PHEV. This vehicle achieves total driving range of 2100km (specifically 2132.7). EV range is rated at 106km CLTC. I am not sure how big of a fuel tank it is but assume it is smaller than the regular hybrid ones which have 12.8 gallons. Even so 2132.7km/1.6km/mi=1332.9375mi 1332.9375mi/12.8g=104.135742188 mpg This thing would actually be even more efficient than both the latest BYD 5.0 DM-i and Toyota Prime PHEV offering.
false info. from this video, ruclips.net/video/YOVycsQRxWM/видео.html accord hybrid PHEV range = 36.1 mpg/7.8l/100km, comparable to 2.9 l/100km. this lion about 2.7 times fuel saving than accord
Actually no, a cold environment (it also depends on what you mean by cold, a -100℃ is cold, -10℃ is also cold) would make the engine more efficient for 2 reasons: 1, higher air density: means more oxygen in the cylinder, so you can have better combustion. 2, lower thermal stress: it’s relatively easy to keep the heat in the engine, by bypassing the radiator, and bring the engine up to the best working temperature. In a hot day, the engine may be slightly above the optimal temp, and you can’t make the cooling system work harder, so you get less efficient combustion.
I am a TOYOTA fan But lets be honest man BYD just distroyed toyota in its game ( the hybred ) and when i knew that toyota experment BYD'S cars and impressed and said that they were extremly reliable toyota made a deal with BYD and the 2026 TOYOTA cars will be using BYD tecnology specially to upcoming toyota corolla in 2026 .

That means I can drive From Seattle to San Francisco with one full charge and one full tank.
😆
Have you heard of vw passat 2.0 tdi?
I like BYD PHEV
Good review. Please do more of such review.
will do
My BMW 520i also has 70L tank, can only last 800KM range.
but you have more power and better dynamics
BMW belongs in the museum.
If max range is your main concern, then you got the wrong engine. Get a 520d instead and you have real world range of more than 1000 km.
Great review 👌🏼
The irony when Toyota dealer became a BYD dealer also, I guess when Toyota sales tumble he still can survive the hit.
"GCC Countries"😉
thanks.
And yeah, beyond BYD, some Legacy Auto dealerships turned to AITO dealer selling Huawei cars
😮😮😮
We need these kind of Hybrids in USA 🇺🇸
Come to Uk, I wanna buy one
is BYD not in UK?
@@madev_channelbut no PHEV yet

@@sed9406 why would they ever do that when they have the advantage?
hopefully it can reach the European market
@@justifiedmasagony3635 They don't have advantage in technology. Maybe have some in brand recognition or marketing.

Whats the difference between Seal 06 vs Seal 07 dm-i ?
This car will destroy Toyota in 3rd world countries if launched under 20K USD
We have only 1 world.
But the tax is the problem
But Toyota in 3rd world countries must run for 25 years. No byd will survive even 10 years
but... the Chinese stole the technology from ... from.. .from.. .
never mind.

Bit of satire. Byd own technology, definitely not from gas guzzling US technology.
Interesting product. BYD still have work to do to be as reliable as Toyota.
chinese products have been marked already. hard to change

So the engine does not charge the battery, it is plug in charge only?
The engine charges the battery , and you can charge with AC/DC

BYD= Buy you die
Toyota can do 25 years or 1 Million miles without major problem. How about BYD ?
That will take time to prove.
huh what?
I believe there are many 1 million plus km BYDs driving around in China - but of course you would not know that so you are excused this time.
