Here's a summary of the key points from the electric car review:
* The BYD Tang L is the first BYD built on the new Super E platform. * It is the fastest charging car, capable of 1000 volts and 1000 amperes, equivalent to 1 megawatt of power, with a 10C charging coefficient, which would mean a full charge in 6 minutes. * The cost in Chinese official showrooms is a little over $30,000 USD. * The car has two direct current charging ports, similar to the Denza N7. * It features the second-generation BYD Blade battery with 100.5 kWh capacity. * The battery's chemistry and cell compounds have been modified. * Rear-wheel-drive versions have a 500 kW motor, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 6.9 seconds. * The reviewed four-wheel-drive version has 810 kW (1100 horsepower) with an acceleration of 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. * A new generation of electric motors provides over 30,000 RPM. * The top speed is 265 km/h, but could be 300+ km/h without electric limiters. * It has an all-steel body. * The wheel base is 14 cm larger than the prior model. * The rear-wheel drive curb weight is almost 2700 kg, and the four-wheel drive is nearly 2900 kg. * The reviewer has a thin-coat tester and the reviewer is satisfied with the results. * BYD offers the car with the 'Eye of God' auto-pilot system, with the reviewed model being B-Level with light detection and ranging (LIDAR) technology on the roof. * A drone can be equipped with the car for about $2500. * New BYD autos in 2025 should have these new systems, and the hardware has about 300 trillion operations per second. * There is a new front trunk or "Frunk" with 136 L volume * The basic version does not have steerwheel heating.
* Compared to the previous generation: The level of finishing is similar, but somewhat more simple. The interior now has minimalist design. * The electric power steering is now mechanical. * "Power" seats have been added. The new BYD still has a panoramic sunroof and is a larger, longer car. * This car felt almost the same as its predecessors, but it handles better and is smoother. * No alcantara or microfiber is used in the car’s interiors and the reviewers expressed dissatisfaction with this, in addition to finding that the front seats were better in previous BYD autos.
