BYD specialists have accumulated considerable experience in creating electric and hybrid cars. One of the successful projects was the hybrid sedan Qin, which is currently considered the fastest in the brand's lineup.
The car is equipped with a power plant that combines a 1.5-liter gasoline engine with an output of 154 horsepower and an electric motor with a power of 150 horsepower. Thanks to this combination, an ordinary-looking sedan can accelerate to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds.
However, soon the palm of leadership among the fastest models of the brand will be intercepted by a hybrid crossover. Instead of the 1.5-liter unit, it will receive a two-liter engine working in tandem with the same hybrid system. The new product will be a second more agile and will reach the first hundred in 4.9 seconds after the start.
The supercar, apparently, will be equipped with a modified version of this hybrid installation, which will allow bringing the total power to 400–500 horsepower. Engineers expect that the Han model will be able to accelerate no slower than 3.9 seconds, and in terms of fuel consumption it will be comparable to a small car that is content with one liter per hundred kilometers.
