Accord PHEV Version - Can it be Driven as a Hybrid without Charging?

A - Green plate plug-in hybrids and blue plate hybrid vehicles essentially operate on the same principle, with the main difference being that plug-in hybrids have larger battery packs that allow for pure electric driving. Therefore, plug-in hybrid models like the Accord PHEV can certainly be driven as hybrid vehicles!

Plug-in hybrid vehicles typically have several modes: pure electric mode, hybrid mode (electricity priority), and battery preservation mode (different models may have different names, but the principles are the same).

• Pure Electric Mode: The vehicle is fully powered by the battery, making it an electric vehicle at this point.
• Hybrid Mode (Electricity Priority): Uses electricity at low speeds, with the engine and motor driving together during acceleration, and the engine driving directly at high speeds, which is quite fuel-efficient but will deplete the battery charge.
• Battery Preservation Mode (Fuel Priority): Primarily uses fuel, functioning as a range extender mode where the engine generates power to drive the vehicle and also charges the battery, maintaining or replenishing the battery charge. This mode can be used continuously without charging, and it has little impact on the vehicle, but it is more fuel-consuming.

Are Qin L and Seal 06 the most cost-effective cars from BYD this year? Is it suitable to purchase now, or should we wait for other 5.0 series models?

There are many plug-in hybrid sedans available in the 100,000 yuan price range, and these two BYD models are quite good in terms of comprehensive standards, but the low-end range is indeed a bit lacking. If there is a need for long-distance travel, it is recommended to consider the Wuling Starlight with DC fast charging. Other BYD 5.0 series models, such as the upcoming Song L plug-in hybrid version, are worth looking forward to, but the price is expected to be above 150,000 yuan.

Considering a hybrid SUV for family use, mainly for taking the elderly out for a drive and "poetry and distance" travel, hoping for a comfortable ride for the elderly, and the vehicle's passability and filtering performance are also top-notch. Recommendations within a budget of 200,000.

There are not many pure blue plate hybrid SUVs, and from the user's perspective, there is no saving on purchase tax, and from the manufacturer's perspective, there is no subsidy. At this price point, you can consider the Geely Xingyue L, and if the budget is sufficient, Trumpchi GS8 is also a good choice. There are more options for plug-in hybrids, such as the newly launched Chery Fengyun T9, which has a high cost-performance ratio. If you value spaciousness, you can also wait for the T10. BYD Tang is about to be replaced next year and is worth waiting for.

Northeast, no traffic jams, no charging conditions. The annual mileage does not exceed 7,000 kilometers. Xingyue L (8AT), CR-V (hybrid), the 4S store quotes CR-V about 35,000 yuan more expensive. Planning to use it for ten years, Xingyue L has a higher fuel consumption, but the 35,000 yuan more expensive for CR-V can be used for refueling. Personally, I feel that the ten-year vehicle fuel consumption cost for Xingyue L will be lower, which model has a higher residual value?

Now that the car price war is so fierce, and the new car prices are falling so much, it's really hard to say who will retain the value of the second-hand car in the future. Of course, both of these cars are good, and the CR-V hybrid will definitely save more fuel, and Xingyue L also needs to add 95# gasoline. Xingyue L also has a hybrid, called Xingyue L Zhiqing, a blue plate hybrid, which is cheaper than the CR-V hybrid in terms of price, and may be more suitable for you.
