BYD has revealed details about its new Han L sedan through a regulatory filing, positioning it as one of the company’s most powerful models to date. The filing, published in Chinaâs Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) catalog, includes two battery electric vehicle (BEV) versions and two plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) versions.
The dual-motor BEV variant (BYD7002ACBEV4) features a front motor with a peak output of 230 kW and a rear motor delivering an impressive 580 kW. This motor configuration allows the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.7 seconds, marking it as one of the fastest electric sedans on the market. Another BEV variant (BYD7002ACBEV5) is equipped with a single motor with a peak power of 500 kW.
The Han L measures 5,050 mm in length, 1,960 mm in width, and 1,505 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,970 mm. It weighs between 2,095 kg and 2,466 kg and has a top speed of 270 km/h. The vehicle is powered by BYDâs in-house lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries from its FinDreams Battery division.
The PHEV versions feature a 1.5L engine with a peak power of 115 kW. One hybrid variant uses a single motor with a peak output of 200 kW, while the dual-motor hybrid variant delivers the same power at both the front and rear axles.
BYDâs Han L, which could rival Teslaâs Model S Plaid in performance, marks a significant leap in the company’s EV lineup. With the public comment period open until January 17, the Han L is expected to officially launch later this year.
