This is the current BYD Qin. Price starts at 185.900 yuan and ends at 252.900 yuan. There is a petrol version with a 154 hp 1.5 turbo and en electric version with a 218 hp motor.

The new Qin will initially launch as a hybrid, but full-electric will be added to the lineup later. The hybrid drive train consists of a 151 hp 1.5 turbo petrol engine and an electric motor with a yet unknown output.

Top speed is an impressive 200 km/h and 0-100 is gone in 5.9 seconds.

Size: 4765/1837/1495, and wheelbase is 2718.

The new Qin gets the new BYD family face that we also saw on the Song Max MPV and the upcoming Tang SUV.

A very clean behind, very restrained for BYD, or for any Chinese automaker really.

The new Qin will get a badge showing off its 0-100 time, just like BYD’s other speedy hybrids.

The new BYD Qin, probably the best looking Chinese sedan so far.

  1. Nothing fragile looking about this body style. I like the bold and brawny looking front end. Compare it to common and less attractive honeycomb, chicken wire, and spindle type front grilles.
    It’s not easy to design something with unique eye appeal these days.
