BYD Song Ultra DM-i Launches May 28 with Fifth-Gen DM Tech, Up to 310km EV Range

The BYD Song Ultra DM-i will officially launch on May 28. The new model features BYD’s fifth-generation DM-i hybrid technology and offers two battery options: 26.6 kWh and 38 kWh, delivering CLTC-rated all-electric ranges of 205 km and 310 km, respectively. Exterior design follows the EV version’s styling language, featuring a closed-off front fascia, black trim accents, a fastback roofline, semi-recessed door handles, and multi-spoke alloy wheels. The rear incorporates full-width taillights integrated with a “Chinese knot” motif. The vehicle measures 4,850 mm in length, 1,910 mm in width, and 1,670 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,840 mm. The interior layout mirrors that of the EV variant, equipped with a 15.6-inch floating center touchscreen, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, and an electronic shift-by-wire stalk. It runs the DiLink-150 intelligent cockpit system with UI 7.0 interface, supporting 5G connectivity, four-zone voice recognition, facial recognition, and remote control functions. Additional features include ventilated, heated, and massaging front seats; a “Queen’s Seat” for the front passenger; an onboard refrigerator; a 16-speaker audio system; a 26-inch HUD head-up display; and seven airbags. For intelligent driving, all trims come standard with the “God’s Eye C” highway navigation pilot system. An optional “God’s Eye B” version with LiDAR is available, enabling urban and highway navigation assistance as well as full-scenario automated parking. Power comes from a combination of a 1.5L engine and a 175 kW electric motor. The suspension setup consists of MacPherson struts at the front and a four-link independent rear suspension, complemented by standard Cloud Ride-C intelligent damping control and TBC flat-tire stability control systems.
