The BYD Song L DM-i interior, a compact SUV, has been captured in spy shots. This vehicle, which maintains the design language of the Qin L DM-i (see specs), is set to showcase BYD’s cutting-edge fifth-generation DM hybrid technology. This unique feature sets it apart from its competitors.
The interior of the Song L DM-i shares much in common with the Qin L DM-i. It features a fully digital embedded instrument panel and a floating-style central control screen, which appears to be 15.6 inches in size. The car has a four-spoke steering wheel, a design element that is typical of the Dynasty family.
The Song L DM-i offers a wireless smartphone charging panel with a maximum charging power of 15 watts. The design of the gear shift lever area is consistent with other BYD models under the Dynasty line. The car also comes with integrated sports seats wrapped in light-colored leather, possibly in the same scheme as the Qin L DM-i, adding a touch of luxury to the interior.
As reported earlier, the mid-size BYD Song L DM-i SUV features a black “dragon’s mouth” grille, thin LED lights, trapezoidal air intake, plastic-trimmed wheel arches, retractable door handles, and tinted rear windows. The rear has unique taillights, a roof spoiler, and independent suspension.
It measures 4780/1898/1670 mm with a 2782 mm wheelbase, slightly larger than the Song Plus. The front and rear tracks are 1637 and 1641 mm, with 18 and 22-degree approach and departure angles. It uses 225/60 R18 or 235/50 R19 wheels and weighs 1930-2000 kg. Inside, it has a 2+3 seating layout, suggesting it might replace the current Song Plus.
The BYD Song L DM-i features the fifth-generation PHEV system, with a 1.5-liter engine (99 hp) and a 215 hp electric motor. It includes an LFP battery from FinDreams, with details on two battery options pending. The system offers 46.06% thermal efficiency, 2.9 L/100 km fuel consumption, and a 2,100 km mixed range. Sales start in the second half of this year, with prices around 120,000 – 130,000 yuan (16,500 – 17,900 USD).
