Over the past few years, BYD has become one of the leading manufacturers in China's new energy vehicle market, and its outstanding performance is breathtaking. However, it is worth our attention that in BYD's rich product line sequence, there is always a lack of a moderate pure electric SUV, which is roughly around RMB 100,000. Although before this, we had the Yuan Pro model, but unfortunately, this model is actually based on the fuel version of the Yuan model that began to be sold in 2016, and its competitiveness has been somewhat insufficient compared to today's market demand. Therefore, in order to fill this gap, BYD decided to launch a new pure electric SUV in February this year, Yuan UP

In terms of exterior design, the Yuan UP continues the family design aesthetics of the "Dynasty" series of pure electric models, using a blackened grille decorative cover, with equally aggressive headlights and sports surrounding, making the vehicle full of youthful vitality.

Viewed from the side, the overall body lines of the Yuan UP are strong and powerful, the roof design is relatively straight, the D-pillar does not adopt a fastback design, and the car's A-B C D-pillar is also similarly blackened, showing the beauty brought by the floating roof. In the details, Yuan UP still retains the distinctive manual button door handle, rather than the mainstream hidden design.

Regarding the size of the information, according to the relevant information revealed in the early stage, the Yuan UP has been improved in width and wheelbase compared to the Yuan Pro, but the length and height of the car have been slightly reduced.

As for the rear part, the Yuan UP borrows a similar through-type taillight design as the Han EV, and the outer area adopts a unique shape of weaving, which looks unique. At the same time, in terms of unexpected design, in addition to setting up a license plate holder in the middle, the Yuan UP also installed two reverse U-shaped chrome trim strips at the bottom, which are matched with the silver trim plate on the lower layer to make the rear part of the car look lighter.

In the chassis part, the Yuan UP adopts the all-new E platform 3Built with 0 technology, it adopts a front MacPherson and rear torsion beam suspension. In terms of power system, all Yuan UP series are driven by a front-mounted single motor, providing two different options of 95 horsepower and 177 horsepower, which are completely consistent with the power parameters configured with the marine life sedan - Dolphin. In terms of energy storage equipment, the whole system of Yuan UP is equipped with lithium iron phosphate batteries, which provide 32kWh and 45 respectivelyThe 12kWh capacity is available in two capacities, corresponding to the CLTC pure electric range of up to 301 km and 401 km respectively. Taking into account various factors, the positioning of Yuan UP is relative to the starting price of 13The 580,000 yuan plus is slightly low, and it is expected that the future price positioning will be in the range of 9 to 120,000 yuan. According to the expected plan, the new car will be officially launched to the market in March, if you are planning to buy a pure electric SUV that is the most modest and suitable for urban travel, then you may as well wait patiently for the Yuan UP to be launched before making a decision.
