BYD Song Plus

Upgrading to the BYD Song Plus electric SUV has been a real game-changer for our family trips. The electric motor produces 204 PS and 310 Nm torque, giving smooth and quiet acceleration on highways and hills near Taif. I especially appreciate the regenerative braking that helps control speed on downhill drives. The large panoramic sunroof and ventilated seats keep everyone cool in the Saudi heat. The 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen with built-in navigation is easy to use, and the 360-degree camera makes parking stress-free. With a 521 km range on a single charge, I don't worry about running out of power on long drives. It's roomy, comfortable, and perfect for eco-conscious families.

BYD Song Plus is a great hybrid SUV in the market. It is the latest technology with plug in hybrid system. The exterior of car looks quite appealing and sporty. The front grill and sharp LED headlights makes the car exterior like a beast. The car can run 100 KM in 5.1 l which overall provides are combined range of 1090 km. The car comes with a tail light which curves all along its back and complement its look. The gear system and other controls are quite new and look appealing. The interior is spacious and comes with a 10 speaker sound system.

The car comes with a 1.5 l turbocharged engine and an electric motor which produces a total 321 horsepower which gives a responsive and efficient driving. The car, when driven in only electric mode, can last up to 120 km of range. The interior is modern and has all the latest technology and comes with connectivity for Apple and Android both. It comes with safety features such as lame keeping assist and emergency braking which gives confidence while riding. The suspension is well tuned and will provide a good drive quality on high speeds on highways and can tolerate little off road patches easily.

The car comes with new plug-in hybrid technology which the company had advertised but the 321 horsepower producing turbocharged engine can consume a lot of energy and hence the fuel efficiency is great but can be better. The car is branded with its premium features and interior but still there is use of hard plastic inside which may not appeal to everyone. The 12.8 inch rotating touch screen comes with many modern technologies and connectivity but can take a time to understand all the features for many of the users. Also the car is priced heavily and may not appeal to everyone.

My recent closer look at the BYD Song Plus DMI at their local dealership in Riyadh, I think this is the perfect Plug in Hybrid SUV in the market right now. I am happy they have introduced the same in Saudi Arabia, and vehicles like this make people think about Hybrid cars. What is the most significant about this SUV is the giant 1000 km plus combined range, I do not think there are many vehicles with such an impressive number. The car scores high in both interior and exterior along with the best features making the Song Plus DMI a great SUV.
