For example, BYD's plug-in hybrid models, such as Qin 100 and Tang 100, are all marked with the "542" logo, indicating that the acceleration of 100 kilometers is less than 5 seconds; Extreme speed electric 4-wheel drive; The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is less than 2 liters.
Since it is a new energy vehicle, it is completely reasonable to slogan "fuel saving". But for plug-in hybrid vehicles, the title of "fuel saving" is sometimes a bit misnomer. For a consumer who buys a plug-in hybrid car, if 99% of the journey is within 70-80 kilometers, it is right to choose this plug-in hybrid car, which can basically be used directly as a pure electric vehicle.
However, if your daily trip is more than 100 km, if you just want to "save fuel" or reduce the cost of car use, you can choose a pure electric vehicle with a long cruising range, or you can choose a non-plug-in hybrid vehicle, such as a Toyota Corolla twin engine and a Camry twin engine.
Plug-in hybrid vehicles, once there is no electricity, can only rely on the power of traditional fuel engines. In this case, the so-called fuel consumption as low as 2 liters per 100 kilometers can only be regarded as a joke. Usually, the actual fuel consumption of plug-in hybrid vehicles is never as amazing as the data shows. The reason why the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology can get such low fuel consumption is entirely due to the magical fuel consumption algorithm of plug-in hybrid vehicles in China. Under this algorithm, a vehicle with low power consumption and fuel consumption exceeding 10L/ 100km may also get an ultra-low fuel consumption of 2L/ 100km through calculation. In other words, if a plug-in hybrid vehicle has no electricity, its fuel consumption is quite amazing, far higher than that of the same class or model (many plug-in hybrid vehicles in China are based on traditional fuel vehicles).
In fact, if you charge every day and the mileage is short, the fuel consumption of 2L per 100 kilometers can be achieved, and even 0L is possible. It's just that under the strange encouragement policy in China, there are many abnormal ways to use cars, such as plug-in hybrid cars that run all over Shanghai and never plug in. ...
