On August 13, BYD's Qin MAX officially launched with 9 variants across EV and DM-i powertrains, with the DM-i starting at 99,900 yuan, featuring flash charging and Tianyan ADAS, bringing B-class flash-charging sedans below 100K yuan for the first time.
Pricing and Configuration: B-Class Sedan from 99,900 Yuan
On August 13, BYD's Dynasty series welcomed a new member — the Qin MAX, a B-class sedan officially launched in both EV and DM-i PHEV variants, totaling 9 configurations.
The pricing is notably aggressive:
- DM-i PHEV: 99,900-129,900 yuan (4 variants, 230KM/320KM electric range)
- EV Pure Electric: 109,900-143,900 yuan (5 variants, 530KM/630KM CLTC range)
This pricing strategy marks the first time a B-class flash-charging sedan's entry point has dropped below 100,000 yuan, directly targeting young consumers and first-time family buyers. For context, the Qin family has cumulatively sold over 2.9 million units, and the Qin MAX further strengthens BYD's product lineup in the mid-size sedan segment.
