Update: There is a facelift version of this vehicle: 2023 BYD Song Plus EV
BYD Song Plus EV is the fully electric version of the Chinese automaker’s popular mid-size SUV. It has launched onto the market in April 2021. Song Plus is the brand’s second model that carries its latest design iteration ‘Dragon Face 3.0’. It is currently being built at BYD’s Xi’an factory alongside the hybrid Song Plus DM-i in China. Song Plus EV pricing starts at around $27,500 in its home country.
BYD uses its proprietary lithium-ion battery cell technology called ‘Blade Battery’ inside the Song Plus EV’s 71.7-kWh battery pack. These battery cells are made of LFP cathodes and tend to be safer, cheaper, and durable. Song Plus EV can be charged from 0 to 100 percent in 74 minutes, thanks to its support for up to 90 kW DC charging speeds.
There is a 12.8-inch infotainment display that can be used both horizontally and vertically. The central touchscreen will automatically rotate when the driver changes the position. DiLink 3.0 software offers many applications such as Wechat, TikTok, YouKu, etc.
