BYD Han

We have separated our BYD Han article into sections. If you want to wait to read the full article, click the links below to the different areas. We also have an overview of the full specifications, an image gallery, detailed information about charging performance, and some online reviews. Our sections:

Performance

The BYD Han has a maximum power of 380 KW (517 hp/510 bhp). The total torque is 700 nm (517 ft-lb). It performs the 0-100km/h sprint (0-62mph) in 3.9 seconds. The top speed is 180 km/h.

Battery, range, and charging

The battery has a gross capacity of 85,4kWh and a net capacity of 83kWh, meaning you have a 2,4kWh buffer for protection. (2.8%). The Lithium-Ion battery uses LFP technology. This has some benefits and disadvantages from the typical NCA/NCM batteries.

The WLTP range is 521 km (324 mi). The consumption is 15.9kWh/100km for the WLTP standard test. For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listing on this model’s range and consumption page.

The maximum DC charging speed is 120kW. A full charge from 0 - 100% would take 65 minutes, while a more common scenario of 10-80% would take 35 minutes. If you assume you lose 5 minutes driving per charge stop in addition to the charge time, the optimum charge area is from 4% to 59%, resulting in an actual charge speed, including time loss, of 93kW. Each charge session would take 30 minutes and 36 seconds.

For the theoretical 1000km challenge, starting with a full battery and driving at 120km/h (75 mph), assuming optimal driving conditions and consumption of 25kWh/100km, 1000km will take 10 hours and 10 minutes. This trip will require four charge session(s) charging from 8% to 59%. The total time lost for charging up the battery will be 111 minutes.

Onboard charger

For level 1 and level 2 AC charging, the onboard charger supports up to 7 KW charging. As a result, you can charge the battery 0-100% from home in about 11 hours and 51 minutes.

Charge port

The location of the charge port is on the right rear side. This location makes it easy to use charge stations where you need to back up into the charger. The connector types vary between the different markets. This model uses CCS Combo 1 for North America and for Europe, CCS Combo 2. See full specifications for all markets.
