Han might be the best electric BYD ever made.

BYD Han, the all-new electric car that just entered the Chinese market, trailblazing the BYD Blade Battery, turns out to be an outstanding EV according to a review by Wheelsboy's Ethan Robertson.

The Han looks very good, and as befits on a large, premium sedan, it's very comfortable, spacious EV and comes with great performance. The top of the line AWD version tested here does 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.9 seconds. Straight acceleration is not the only positive, as steering is also good (way better than in the BYD Tang SUV).

It's not strange then that thousands of customers are lining up for the Han in China:

BYD Han (汉) BEV specs:

• long range of some up to 605 km (376 miles) NEDC
• Reportedly two battery options:
• 65 kWh battery for 506 km (314 miles) NEDC with FWD powertrain
• 77 kWh battery for 605 km (376 miles) NEDC with FWD powertrain and 550 km (342 miles miles) NEDC with AWD powertrain
• Blade Battery - lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) cells in cell-to-pack (CTP) version
• 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.9 seconds in top AWD version
• two powertrain options for BEV:
• FWD (163 kW)
• AWD (163 kW front + 200 kW rear)
• highly efficient silicon carbide MOSFET power electronics (inverter)
• DC fast charging from 30 to 80% in 25 minutes, 10 minutes of recharge for up to 135 km (84 miles) of range
• drag coefficient of 0.233
• Length 4,980 mm, Width 1,910 mm, Height 1,495 mm, Wheelbase 2,920 mm

If they can bring this into SG, I think it will greatly change on China made car is.

Instead of selling the dated e6.

Our car market share here is ikan bilis compared to theirs. 

I dont think they will notice us. No charging infrastructure, nothing.

1 ep9 can buy how many  han? 😙

Drag coefficient of 0.233 

Such a low Cd from a Chinese maker in a 4 door sedan is worth applauding and is a step in the right direction to extend its mileage.

The carpark has how many carpark lots vs 2 charging stations?

Infrastructure means govt chut money build wan, not some private building ownself come up with their building fund to build 2 charging station. 

Those private company build charging stations are also not considered infrastructure. These companies have to use investment money to build them.

I totally agree with this statement.

Nowadays bus also BYD, Grab car also BYD, your mask you're wearing now for Covid also BYD (I know some people really chose BYD mask over others because they said it's good quality).

China products are no longer what we think of 10 years ago.

China products will become the next kind of Japanese products. Before Olympics in 1964, Japan products were also considered cheap and lousy, but look where they are now.
