The Story

Why the Qin Plus matters

The Qin Plus is the Qin Pro renamed in March 2021, when the Qin Plus DM-i went on sale in March from 105,800 yuan. An update on 10 February 2023 brought the price to 99,800 yuan, BYD's first DM-i under 100,000 yuan, with 8.32 or 18.32 kWh batteries and NEDC electric range of 55 or 120 km. EV versions with CLTC ranges of 420 and 510 km were already listed in February 2024, and on 25 September 2025 three new base versions were added from 79,800 yuan. The Destroyer 05 is the Ocean-series model based on the Qin Plus DM-i.
