in the past few years, the debate about hybrid and plug-in hybrid has been ongoing. those who support hybrid believe that the fuel consumption of many plug-in hybrid models is much higher than that of toyota and honda's hybrid. in this case, why do we still choose to buy plug-in hybrids from domestic brands such as byd?

in fact, recently in north america, a man named wayne gerdes drove a 2.0l hybrid toyota prius and achieved a fuel consumption of 2.52l/100km. according to the current domestic oil price, the average cost per kilometer is about 0.2 yuan, which is basically the same as many new energy vehicles that use fast charging for a long time. the fuel consumption level of 2.52l is lower than the 2.9l fuel consumption of byd qin l and haibao 06.

although the prius has not been able to enter the chinese market, the fuel consumption of toyota's hybrid models is indeed not high, 3-4l is a normal level, and it is much lower than many pure fuel vehicles. in theory, combined with the above fuel consumption performance, toyota's hybrid should at least be on par with byd's plug-in hybrid models in terms of sales, after all, toyota's products and brand reputation are still very good.

however, what we see is that byd's monthly sales have exceeded 300,000 vehicles for consecutive months, of which plug-in hybrid models account for half of the total. toyota's total sales have continued to decline, and its oil-electric hybrid models have never become popular. under the "suppression" of plug-in hybrid models from domestic brands such as byd, toyota's hybrid situation has become even more passive.

the fuel consumption of toyota hybrid vehicles is already very low, and some models even have lower fuel consumption than domestic plug-in hybrid models. why do so many people choose to buy byd dm-i plug-in hybrid models?

in fact, in the choice of this type of product, domestic consumers have remained rational enough and chosen a product form that is more suitable for domestic users, that is, plug-in hybrid models.

first of all, from the perspective of energy consumption, although the fuel consumption of plug-in hybrid models including byd is higher than that of toyota hybrid, plug-in hybrid models have a certain pure electric range. take byd's 100,000-level plug-in hybrid model as an example, it also has a cltc pure electric range of about 80 kilometers. basically, most users can use pure electricity for short-distance commuting. if there is a home charging pile, the daily commuting cost will be very low. therefore, the high fuel consumption of plug-in hybrid models does not mean that the overall cost will be high. ordinary people can figure this out.

secondly, consumers buy cars not only to save money and reduce fuel consumption, but also have other needs. for example, in terms of configuration, byd's qin l, which starts at 99,800 yuan, has a much higher configuration level than toyota's camry hybrid, which starts at 179,800 yuan. in addition, byd qin l's internal materials, degree of intelligence, and usability are also much higher than camry hybrid. therefore, it is still rational for consumers to choose a model like qin l.

finally, the power level. in order to pursue the ultimate fuel consumption, many oil-electric hybrid models have set the performance of the vehicle very low. for example, the 2.0l camry hybrid has an acceleration time of 100 kilometers per hour of 10.2 seconds, which is already quite slow. the qin l, which starts at 99,800 yuan, has an acceleration time of 100 kilometers per hour of 7.5 seconds. for many 200,000-level fuel vehicles, it is already performance-oriented, but consumers do not need to spend so much money.

therefore, in fact, many domestic consumers choose plug-in hybrid models of brands such as byd and abandon oil-electric hybrid models of brands such as toyota and honda. the calculation of this account is still very clear. in other words, it is precisely because of the emergence of domestic plug-in hybrid models that the dimensionality reduction attack on oil-electric hybrid models has been achieved. for plug-in hybrid models, extreme fuel consumption may be relatively high, but consumers can also choose a lower solution, that is, charging more and using less oil, which is something that toyota hybrids can hardly do.
