Overview

The Da Han is BYD’s new flagship sedan for the Chinese market and the first D-segment car in the Dynasty family, the naming line that already includes the Han, the Tang and the Qin. It sits above the Han rather than replacing it: 5,256 mm long, 1,999 mm wide and 1,510 mm tall on a 3,130 mm wheelbase, with five seats. The name translates as “Great Han”.

Battery-electric versions carry a 102.326 kWh lithium iron phosphate Blade pack supplied by BYD’s own FinDreams division, weighing 725.9 kg at an energy density of 141 Wh/kg. The rear-drive car uses a single 370 kW (496 hp) motor and is rated at 1,008 km on the CLTC cycle in the versions offered so far, with an unladen weight between 2,260 and 2,325 kg. Regulatory filings also list rear-drive versions rated at 970 km and all-wheel-drive versions at 820 and 850 km, none of which are part of the pre-sale lineup. The all-wheel-drive car adds a second motor for 570 kW (764 hp) combined, is rated at 880 km on the same battery and is quoted at 3.3 seconds to 100 km/h, weighing 2,505 kg. BYD says the pack supports flash charging, though it has not published charging times.

A plug-in hybrid has been filed alongside the electric cars. It combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged BYD472ZQB engine rated at 115 kW (154 hp) with a 200 kW (268 hp) drive motor and a 54.489 kWh LFP battery for a claimed 470 km of electric-only range. BYD has not published a combined system output for it, and pre-sales for the hybrid have not opened.

Equipment confirmed so far centres on the driver-assistance hardware: BYD’s DiPilot 5.0 suite, a roof-mounted lidar unit, and cameras built into the front fenders. Rear-wheel steering is fitted, which shortens the turning circle on a car of this length.

The Da Han made its public debut at the Chengdu Auto Show on 21 August 2026, and pre-sales opened the same day with three electric versions: the rear-drive Premium at 249,900 yuan ($35,000), the rear-drive Flagship at 269,900 yuan ($37,700) and the all-wheel-drive Flagship at 299,900 yuan ($41,900). Final list prices and an on-sale date have not been announced.

What is CLTC?

CLTC is the China Light-Duty Vehicle Test Cycle, the range figure carmakers must quote in China. Its low average speed makes it the most optimistic of the major cycles.

How powerful is the BYD Da Han?

What type of car is the BYD Da Han?
The BYD Da Han is a Sedan.
How is the BYD Da Han different from the BYD Han?
The Da Han is a larger, more expensive car positioned above the Han rather than replacing it. At 5,256 mm long on a 3,130 mm wheelbase it is the first D-segment sedan in BYD's Dynasty line, and it introduces equipment the Han does not offer, including rear-wheel steering and a roof-mounted lidar. The name reads as "Great Han" in Chinese.
Does the BYD Da Han come as a plug-in hybrid?
Yes. Alongside the battery-electric versions, BYD has filed a plug-in hybrid Da Han pairing a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine rated at 115 kW with a 200 kW drive motor and a 54.489 kWh LFP battery, giving a claimed 470 km of electric-only range on the CLTC cycle. Pre-sales for that version have not opened.
What does the BYD Da Han's 1,008 km range figure actually measure?
It is a CLTC figure, the Chinese homologation cycle, and it applies only to the rear-drive version on the 102.3 kWh battery. CLTC is measured at lower average speeds than WLTP or EPA testing and returns noticeably higher numbers for the same car, so the Da Han's real-world range will be lower. The all-wheel-drive version offered in pre-sale is rated at 880 km on the same cycle and the same pack.
How much does the BYD Da Han cost?
Pre-sales opened on 21 August 2026 with three battery-electric versions: the rear-drive Premium at 249,900 yuan ($35,000), the rear-drive Flagship at 269,900 yuan ($37,700) and the all-wheel-drive Flagship at 299,900 yuan ($41,900). These are pre-sale prices; BYD has not confirmed final list prices or an on-sale date.
