BYD Yuan UP

Overall, it's still quite good to be able to buy a car with intelligent driving assistance at this price point. The intelligent driving assistance performs well on highways, allowing you to briefly take your hands off the wheel and relax. However, you still need to stay focused and be prepared to handle unexpected situations. The system can also be used on some urban expressways, but you shouldn't rely on it too much. It's best to drive in the leftmost lane. Once, I was driving in the rightmost lane and there was an on - ramp, and I got startled by other cars.

In the city, the vehicle's range is about 90% of the stated range when you're listening to music and have the air - conditioning set to level 2 or 3. But on the highway, it's a bit disappointing. I've driven it a few times quite aggressively, sometimes reaching speeds of around 130 - 140 km/h, and the actual range is only about 65% of the stated range. There shouldn't be too many uphill sections, or the range reduction will be even more significant.

In terms of space, since the trunk is relatively small, the rear - seat space is quite decent. However, the seats aren't very comfortable. I usually drive the car and have never sat in the back, but my family members say it's okay.

Overall, I've owned the car for nearly two months and have already driven 6300 kilometers (I've been traveling around because I recently lost my job). It's given me a good impression. As an A0 - class SUV, it has a relatively large interior space. Except that the trunk can't hold a lot of things, there's enough room for passengers, but the comfort level is average. I haven't driven many high - end cars, but at least there's no problem with acceleration and overtaking. I overtake other cars all the way on the highway. The driving experience is average. The suspension is a bit poor, and the car shakes a lot on bumpy roads. Another issue is the range. It's fine in the city, but on the highway, there's range anxiety. If you're planning a trip over 200 kilometers, it's recommended to plan your route in advance and find charging stations ahead of time. The maximum charging power seems to be 65KW, and it takes about 50 minutes to fully charge the battery. The charging speed is still relatively fast.

¡¾Space Performance¡¿
The car doesn't look big on the outside, but it has a very spacious interior. It's no problem for a family of five to go out in it. There are air vents in the rear row, and the floor is completely flat. It's quite good. This is also the largest small electric car in its price range.

¡¾Range and Energy Consumption¡¿
I've only done a full charge and full discharge once so far. Maybe it's because I just picked up the car and the weather is hot. I turned the air conditioner up high and only drove on the urban expressways. However, I used the high - speed intelligent navigation and sentry mode. The last time I drove it until the battery level dropped to 5% and the remaining range wasn't displayed anymore, and I drove about 250 km in total. I haven't driven it on the highway yet, so this is just for reference.

¡¾Assisted Driving¡¿
It didn't have this feature before. Now it has the "Eye of God" system, which works. It's okay if you're not bothered by it and the sudden braking, or if you're on the phone or deep in thought. Overall, it's still a bit stupid and clumsy. The main problem is that the threshold is too large. It changes lanes and brakes when the target is still far away. A highlight is that it honks the horn to urge others ??

¡¾Charging Time¡¿
The maximum charging power is 65 kw. It takes exactly one hour to charge from 5% to 100%.

¡¾Interior¡¿
There was quite a strong smell when I first bought the car. It smelled really bad after being exposed to the sun. It's much better after I bought some carbon bags and sachets.

¡¾Maintenance¡¿
The first maintenance is free, and I was given four free maintenance services.
I also have the qualification for free installation of a charging pile. (Remember to confirm before installation. Wait for the new model.)
¡¾Least Satisfied¡¿
1. The car is a bit too big. It's more suitable for men or families ??????.
2. The actual range needs to be confirmed. For now, I'm calculating it at 60% of the stated range.

¡¾Most Satisfied¡¿The exterior is round and plump, looking cute, like a little chubby. The interior is simple and elegant. Although I bought the one with a white interior, it's easy to clean when it gets dirty. The Leading Edition is said to be the version with the highest cost - performance ratio. There's no sunroof, which is a plus, otherwise it would be too hot in summer.
¡¾Space Performance¡¿The space is good. It has a relatively large space among small cars. When the rear seats are fully folded down, there's a slight slope, but you can still lay a mattress and camp and sleep in it.
¡¾Endurance and Energy Consumption¡¿In summer, when the air - conditioner is set to low wind and the speed is between 60 - 80, the endurance is about 400 kilometers; in winter, with the air - conditioner on and on the highway, the endurance is only about 60% of the full range. However, this is a common problem for electric vehicles.
¡¾Assisted Driving¡¿It works well on highways and elevated roads when there are few cars and the lane markings are clear. It can also recognize traffic cones. But when changing lanes, it may force a lane change due to speed limits. When changing lanes at a speed of 120, the car body will tilt a bit. When encountering vehicles that change lanes irregularly, it's better to take over the driving in advance. The intelligent driving system doesn't have as good a predictive ability as humans. Valet parking and remote parking are quite interesting, a bit like a big toy, and it's okay to play with them occasionally. It can also be used on urban elevated roads, in tunnels, and in traffic jams. In other cases, it's better to drive by yourself, after all, it's just an assisted driving system.
¡¾Least Satisfied¡¿When driving on the highway at a speed above 90 kilometers, the wind noise and tire noise increase significantly, which may be related to the car model. Buying some adhesive tapes online and sticking them on will make it much quieter.
¡¾Charging Time¡¿With fast charging, it can be charged to a sufficient level in about twenty or thirty minutes; with slow charging, it takes about five or six hours to charge from 20% to 30%.
