You don't need to stress about this catching fire. The BYD LFP batteries are the safest on the market. They have smashed their EVs into walls, rammed massive nails into the battery packs and there has been no fires. More likely to have a fire in an ICE car than a BYD LFP battery. I am considering replacing my Triton with the BYD Shark. We are about to buy the BYD Seal next month.
You guys need to get across this technology. It doesn’t work how you first think. When you are cruising on the highway or the flat and down hills, the engine is charging the battery. You can run on electric only for 80ks if the battery is full. This could be from plug in or its own 1500cc generator. 0-100 in 5.6 seconds is not too shabby. Fuel efficiency is very good if relying on the engine/generator. If you can plug in from home, you can do daily commute without using any fuel.
Well said, yes guys think of it like a diesel Loco, the vehicle is always powered only by electric motors & then the Engine kicks in only when told to by the computer ( and you can choose the charge level you want it to do that.), to recharge the batteries , so you are always driving by electric propulsion , & so you always have instant toque on tap !, this is how all hybrids should be ! and as with this all hybrids should be plug in rechargeable as well, that way you have the option of always running on electric if your trips are short enough !, but also the long range of driving on Petrol when needs be , this is the way to go in our in near term future for sure !.
Lol, you guys need to understand hybrids aren't just hybrids . The 1.5T is designed to charge the battery and kicks in a certain points. Ute designed by a tech company vs what people have been driving to date is a Nokia 3310 vs a smartphone. 🤷
I can’t believe you haven’t heard of this vehicle get with the program you need to stop making youtub and start watching youtub
😂😂 fair chat
When you think that a 1.5-liter engine might be too small for a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) like this one, it's because the way the system works isn't immediately obvious. This DMO PHEV uses a system where the engine acts more as a generator than as a direct power source for the wheels.
Here’s how it works:
When the battery level drops to a certain point, the engine kicks in, but instead of driving the wheels directly, it runs at most efficient constant, high speed (though we don’t need to worry about the exact RPMs). The main job of the engine at this point is to generate electricity. This electricity does two things: it charges the battery and directly powers the electric motors that drive the wheels.
The vehicle has electric motors that can produce a maximum of 320 kW combined. However, you don’t use this full 320 kW all the time. The power demand varies depending on your driving conditions. For example, in most normal driving situations, you might only be using between 30 kW and 300 kW which is only in rare and extreme cases-like overtaking at high speeds with a heavy towing that you would approach the maximum power output.
The engine generates a constant power output (let’s say around 120 kW). This is more than enough to handle the average power demands of the vehicle, which might typically be around 80 kW. The extra power can go towards recharging the battery.
When you press the accelerator , you’re controlling the speed and power of the electric motors, not the engine. The engine continues to run at its optimal, constant speed, efficiently generating power regardless of how fast you’re driving.
Even though a 1.5-liter engine might sound small, it’s actually very efficient in this setup. It doesn’t need to be large because it’s not directly driving the wheels-it’s providing steady, constant reliable power to keep the car moving at all demand conditions and the battery charged. The electric motors handle the actual driving, allowing the engine to operate in its most efficient range all the time.
BYD Shark engine also drives the wheels directly .
“It will need energy to do stuff” 😂 brilliant insights, thanks.
Guys this thing is a mint rig on paper. Been following it for the whole year it has been released in Mexico and unveiled in NZ.
It’s not going to work like your average Hybrid setup. Have a good look at it and come back with another video because you’re falling behind 😂
@5:07 The way he said it so seriously made me laugh hahaha
"It'd need to rely on energy *squints eyes*... I'd say to do... stuff."
😂😂
I am truly surprised these guys had never heard of BYD before. And the amount of news about the Shark for almost a year now has been enormous.
The 1.5L engine is primarily for charging the battery. The electric motors do most of the driving. The ICE can assist with the driving when required.
the engine is just a generator that charges the batteries, it doesn't drive the wheels
No, you can drive it with just the engine
@@8739paulstep7yes, but it's primary function is a generator.
That's the yangwang U8. The shark and bao series can propel the wheels with the engine..
@@8739paulstep7but the engine has very little torque because it runs at 5000 rpm all the time. So it can assist the electric motors at higher speeds but the work is done by charging the engine.
The guy on the right was really sus about the 1.5 litre engine. The way it works is that the engine runs at 46% thermal efficiency because it only runs at one speed 5000rpm the sweet spot for that engine. Torque is virtually nothing on it but the electric motors provide the torque. But a standard motor that has higher torque runs at lower rpm runs at a thermal efficiency of 26% so without the control and the electric motors you would at least a v6 3.6 litre engine. So a 1.5 litre engine running at 5000 rpm can give you 230 hP but no torque you need a 3.6 litre engine to give you the same power and torque at start up.
So sleep easy mate the chines engineers figured it all out.
The engine just work as a generator, the motors will run the wheels providing instant torque and power. You guys need to do a show on hybrid and plug in hybrid and how series and parallel hybrids work
How many cars has BYD sold?
...they reached sales of 2,877,353 units in 2023, which is a 55.3% increase from the previous year.
BYD's total sales for the year reached 3,024,417 vehicles, including almost 1.6 million fully electric vehicles.
BYD Shark is already available in Brazil and Mexico.....should check up BYD's luxury label, Yangwang U8
Oh blimey are you guys taking me for a ride? Amusing - but if you really don't know, this style of hybrid is an EV first, and a petrol car second.
I'm very curious to see how this setup actually works, particularly if the battery is nearly dead and then presumably the energy ultimately has to come from that little petrol engine.
Test drive Sealion 06 in Australia. They are nearly the same theory.
@@chenliangli4015 true, except in the case of the ute, it is likely to be carrying a heavy load.
I have a BYD sea lion 6 PHEV suv I have driven 1321 km and with plugging it into a 240volt 10 amp socket most nights I have only used 10 litres of 95 Ron petrol that’s 0.8 litres per 100 k. It has a 1.5 turbo and 2 motors giving 238kw power and 5.6 seconds zero to 100k. It also qualifies for the FBT exemption on novated leases saving heaps on tax.
I like these guys but sheesh.
Get your heads out of Toyota and Nissans bums and see what else is out there.
Ronny won't love this ute 😂... He's still getting used to the light levelling dial in the 76. V2L is exciting tho. No need for separate battery set up.
😂😂 maybe not
Great for camping, no need for complicated lithium battery setups, 240v on tap
The problem is that in some conditions the 1.5t can't provide enough power, and you will run out of battery
This beast ??? , looks like it could be a winner, just watched a review by TFL , they were very impressed with it, including the tech ! which actually worked, including the driver assist tech ! go figure!, their only major issues were the ride quality ( dampers too soft) and the brake feel,, they even said the build quality seemed good!, so seems rather good all round, if it's reliable ??? , whats not too like ?. if I could afford one , I'd be tempted.
BYD Shark is a Plug-In Hybrid
Whatever happened to the Ranger PHEV?
Still coming but only with a small battery compared to the Shark
It's byd dmi technology
Please stop promoting it, you're increasing the competition for me to get one as soon as they're here in Australia. 😂😂
I don't want to have to go to NZ to get one freighted in.
I own one of there all electric mid size SUVs and am more then happy with the design and build quality, I was worried as fuck at the start about these things but have since come to realise that much of that is a thing of the past.
The operating system is the same in all the vehicles, so if you want to know what that’s like then take one for a test drive.
I just don’t know if the shark will fit in my garage…lil bit bigger…
BIG shark
@@BackChat if you get a white one, perhaps you can call it a “great white shark”
Ronny, get with the program buddy
I think you guys need to have a look at the stats of this car. 100kW of battery, mechanical drive from the engine to the front wheels, 800kg+ payload and towing. Its certainly not matching the full figures of dual cabs but its reasonably impressive as an electric biased Ute. Hope the guys have a little more in detailed look at them.
We'll be looking in more detail soon, just our first time hearing about it 😂😂
It is actually 30kWh battery for approx. 80-100km EV range .
@sumodog68 your right, cheers, must have gotten the number confused with the ev distance. haha.
Buddy… Australians are known for driving small axx cars
Guys are potato's sorry but people like this is why we don't get any of the good hybrid models that the rest or the world gets
Yeah was terrible given if watched Ronnie for years feel like they just throw these together for views with no thought😂😢
This seriously the least insightful video I've ever watched. Er, u,m yeah, wow, yeah, nah.
These was painful to watch surprised Ronnie these dufft think of electric diesel locomotive bloody awesome electric motors have instant torque and petrol motor just the generator watch tfl truck they did far better review in Mexico 😅😂
