BYD Han
The BYD Han (Chinese: 比亚迪汉) is a series of full-size sedan (E-segment) manufactured by the Chinese manufacturer BYD Auto since 2020. It is a flagship model of BYD's Dynasty Series passenger vehicles, and was named after the Han Dynasty, the first golden age of Imperial China.
Since its introduction, the Han has been available as a battery electric vehicle marketed as Han EV and several plug-in hybrid variants. The Han EV was notable for being the earliest Chinese car that is capable of a 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) acceleration in around 3 seconds. In 2022, BYD refreshed the Han by replacing the Han DM plug-in hybrid with two variants, the Han DM-i as a efficiency-oriented model and the Han DM-p as a performance-oriented model.
In 2025, BYD introduced the Han L, a slightly larger sedan with an all-new ground-up design, updated equipment and more powerful powertrain. It is also available in three powertrain options, the DM-i, DM-p, and EV.
The Han was preceded by the E-SEED GT concept car, presented at the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show. The concept car is a coupe that features gullwing doors, an all-wheel drive layout, and a 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) time of less than 4 seconds.
The first pictures of the production model BYD Han were released in January 2020, prior to its introduction at the planned Beijing Auto Show in April 2020. The model went on sale in China in July 2020.
Since 2021, a version dedicated for ride-hailing purposes is available as the BYD e9.
The Han DM ("dual mode") is the plug-in hybrid variant of the BYD Han. The Han DM is developed on the four-wheel drive DM3 platform, with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that produces 180 kW (241 hp; 245 PS) from its rear permanent-magnet synchronous motor and 141 kW (189 hp) from the 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, bringing the combined output power to 321 kW (430 hp; 436 PS). It has a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.7 seconds.
Based on the NEDC driving cycle, the combined fuel consumption is 1.4 L/100 km (71.4 km/L; 201.8 mpg‑imp; 168.0 mpg‑US), and the fuel consumption of the internal combustion engine is 5.9 L/100 km (16.9 km/L; 47.9 mpg‑imp; 39.9 mpg‑US).
