Han DM
The Han DM ("dual mode") is the plug-in hybrid variant of the BYD Han. The Han DM is developed on the four-wheel drive DM3 platform, with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that produces 180 kW from its rear permanent-magnet synchronous motor and 141 kW from the 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, bringing the combined output power to 321 kW. It has a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.7 seconds.
Based on the NEDC driving cycle, the combined fuel consumption is 1.4 L/100km, and the fuel consumption of the internal combustion engine is 5.9 L/100km.[5]
There are two versions of Han DM: the basic Luxury model (豪华型) and a more equipped Majestic model (尊贵型) with upgraded stereo systems and extra comfort options.
Han EV
The Han EV is the battery electric variant of the BYD Han, and all its models are designed with a 76.9 kWh battery pack, which claims to be rapid-chargeable from 30 to 80% in 25 minutes. The Han EV utilises a new proprietary lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery design which BYD dubbed the blade battery, claiming to take up less space than a conventional LFP battery of the same energy capacity.[7]
The base model Han EV, called the Extended Range model (超长续航版), is front-wheel drive with a reported all-electric range (NEDC) of 605 km. It is powered by a 163 kW electric motor that can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.9 seconds. There are two versions of this base model: the basic Luxury model (豪华型), while the more featured Majestic model with extra advanced driver-assistance systems, blind spot detection, better stereo systems and other comfort options.
The Flagship model (旗舰型) is a four-wheel drive with an additional 200 kW rear motor, bringing the total power output to 363 kW, and reportedly can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds.[8] It is rated at a NEDC all-electric range of 550 km with more added features than the Majestic model.[9]

2024 refresh

While previously the Han plug-in hybrid and EV version has different front clip design, since the 2025 model year all Han models shares the same front fascia adopted from the Han EV. Unlike most new BYD models, the 2025 model Han retains "Build Your Dreams" at the back while other models received the new BYD logo along with red backlights. The plug-in hybrid system of the Han DM-i was upgraded to the latest DM-i 5.0 platform.
The 2025 Han is also equipped with BYD's DiPilot 300 advanced driver assistance system with LiDAR and Nvidia Orin-X system-on-a-chip, that offers highway and urban pilot assistance. It also includes the DiSus-C intelligent damping system, which adjusts suspension for comfort or stability.[16][17]
