The 2026 BYD Qin L DM-i will be officially launched on October 23rd with a pure electric range of 128 kilometers.

Recently, we learned from BYD officials that the 2026 BYD Qin L DM-i will be officially launched on the evening of October 23. The interior and exterior design of the new car will continue to use the current model. The pure electric range has been improved to 128 kilometers. The shift mechanism has been changed to a hand-shift design, and the auxiliary instrument panel has been optimized in shape. The editor expects that the configuration and price of the vehicle will also be adjusted to maintain the competitiveness of the vehicle products.

The new Qin L DM-i's exterior continues the "New National Trend Dragon Face Aesthetics." Its refined front fascia, combined with the large lower grille, creates a more imposing look. The narrow, sharp headlights, integrated with the upturned, luminous "dragon whiskers," create a spirited overall look.

The interior changes are reflected in the shift mechanism, which now features a hand-operated shifter for easier shifting. The sub-dashboard has been streamlined, repositioning the original shift lever, which has resulted in more storage space. Other features remain unchanged, with the 15.6-inch central control screen remaining a key feature.

We have not yet received definite information on other changes. It is expected that the power system will use the current settings, consisting of a 1.5L engine and an electric motor. The engine has a maximum power of 74 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 126 Nm. The electric drive system has 120 kilowatts and 160 kilowatts of different power motors to choose from. The pure electric range of the new car has been slightly improved to 128 kilometers. Whether the Qin L DM-i will launch a Yunnian model like the Qin L EV is something worth looking forward to. The answer will be revealed on the evening of October 23.
