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 a rear-drive version rated at 970 km and all-wheel-drive versions down to 820 km, which are not part of the launch 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, against 4.9 seconds for the rear-drive car. On a BYD flash charger the pack charges from 10 to 97% in 9 minutes, and BYD says it takes 3 minutes longer at minus 30 °C.

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 reported 470 km of electric range, though the source does not name the test cycle. BYD has not published a combined system output for it, and the hybrid was not part of the October launch.

Every version has BYD’s God’s Eye B lidar-based driver-assistance system with God’s Eye 5.0 navigation assistance on city roads and highways. DiSus-A dual-chamber air suspension, road preview and rear-wheel steering are standard across the range, and rear-wheel steering gives a minimum turning radius of 4.95 m.

The Da Han made its public debut at the Chengdu Auto Show on 21 August 2026, when pre-sales opened, and went on sale in China on 13 October 2026. The rear-drive Premium costs 235,900 yuan (~$35,100), the rear-drive Flagship 249,900 yuan (~$37,100) and the all-wheel-drive Flagship 275,900 yuan (~$41,000), between 14,000 and 24,000 yuan (~$2,100–3,600) less than the pre-sale prices.

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.

Frequently asked questions

What is the range of the BYD Da Han?
The BYD Da Han offers up to 1008 km of range on the CLTC cycle.
How powerful is the BYD Da Han?
The BYD Da Han produces up to 764 hp.
What battery does the BYD Da Han have?
The BYD Da Han uses a 102.3 kWh battery.
What type of car is the BYD Da Han?
The BYD Da Han is a Sedan.
How long does the BYD Da Han take to charge?
On a 990 kW fast charger, the BYD Da Han goes from 10 to 80% in about 5-6 minutes by GetCarNews's estimate for mild weather (the maker quotes 10-97% in 9 minutes). On a 7 kW home charger the same 10-80% takes about 10-12 hours.
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 reported 470 km of electric range, with no test cycle stated by the source. The October 2026 launch covered only the battery-electric versions.
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 is rated at 880 km on the same cycle and the same pack.
How much does the BYD Da Han cost?
The Da Han went on sale in China on 13 October 2026 in three battery-electric versions: the rear-drive Premium at 235,900 yuan (~$35,100), the rear-drive Flagship at 249,900 yuan (~$37,100) and the all-wheel-drive Flagship at 275,900 yuan (~$41,000). Those launch prices are 14,000 to 24,000 yuan (~$2,100–3,600) below the pre-sale prices announced in August.
