Chronology
PredecessorBYD S1 (gasoline version)

The BYD Yuan (比亚迪元) is a subcompact crossover SUV that is produced by BYD since March 2016, slotting below the BYD Song compact crossover. It is currently available only as an battery electric vehicle. Previously, a gasoline version and a hybrid version were offered. The gasoline version was sold since 2015 as the BYD S1 before being renamed and becoming part of the Yuan family. In some markets the S1 name was kept, and reused even for the all-electric Yuan. The BYD S2 is an all-electric subcompact crossover that is essentially a rebadged Yuan, shorter than the Yuan and the S1 and launched in 2019.

The second generation model called Yuan Plus was revealed in July 2021, featuring slightly larger dimensions and a more upmarket design.

The vehicle is named after the Yuan dynasty.

The BYD Yuan is the fourth BYD product and the third BYD crossover using the Chinese dynasty naming system, following the BYD Song compact crossover, the BYD Tang mid-size crossover and the BYD Qin compact sedan. Just like they did with the BYD Song, BYD has decided to use the same name (Yuan) for the entire powertrain range, including a gasoline version, a hybrid version and an electric version (previously the gasoline version was known as the S1, while the hybrid and electric versions used the Yuan nameplate from the beginning).[1]


BYD S1

The BYD S1 is a gasoline-powered subcompact crossover launched by BYD in 2015. Besides the Chinese market, it was also offered in the Philippines. In the Chinese market, with the introduction of the Yuan nameplate in 2016, the S1 was renamed and was since sold as the gasoline version of the Yuan.

In some non-Chinese markets, the old S1 name was kept, despite the renaming of the vehicle in China. Even the all-electric variant of the Yuan was known in some markets as the S1 EV.

BYD Yuan facelift and Yuan EV

In 2018, the BYD Yuan was facelifted, with the new "Dragon Face" styling of the front end, in line with all the other "dynasty" series products. The all-electric Yuan EV360 was also launched with prices ranging from 79,900 yuan to 99,900 yuan.[2] The BYD Yuan EV360 has a 43.2kWh battery with a maximum range of 305 kilometres (190 mi).[3] There is also the BYD Yuan EV535 with a larger, 53.2 kWh battery.

2020 Yuan EV

As of August 2020, the only variants of the Yuan advertised by BYD in China are all-electric. Alongside the 2019 BYD Yuan EV360 (42 kWh battery), the 2020 BYD Yuan EV is offered, with two battery options: 40.62 kWh and 53.22 kWh. According to the NEDC norm, the range with the larger battery is 410 km (250 mi).[4]

Yuan Pro (2021 facelift)

The Yuan EV received a facelift for the 2021 model year called the Yuan Pro. The Yuan Pro features a redesigned front fascia in the same style as the BYD Han EV. In terms of performance, the Yuan Pro is available with a single motor producing 136 hp (101 kW; 138 PS) and a torque of 210 N⋅m (155 lb⋅ft). The Yuan Pro is equipped with a 50.1-kWh lithium iron phosphate "blade battery" developed by BYD that is capable of a NEDC range of 401 km (249 mi).[5]

The interior is largely carried over from the pre-facelift model with the 10.1-inch multimedia screen, and is integrated with the DiLink3.0 intelligent connected system featuring voice command, voice notifications, Bluetooth phone calls, phone connectivity and mobile onboard television.[5]

BYD S2

The BYD S2 is an all-electric subcompact crossover, shorter than the Yuan and the S1 (4100 mm vs 4360 mm) and sold in China since 2019. The battery capacity is 40.62 kWh.[6]

News of a second-generation model surfaced in July 2021, with the model being branded Yuan Plus to differentiate it from the first generation Yuan that continued to be sold.

The Yuan Plus is based on BYD's e-Platform 3.0 and is equipped with a 204 hp (152 kW; 207 PS) electric motor providing 310 N⋅m (229 lb⋅ft) of torque, with the power coming from BYD's self-developed "blade battery".[8]

The Yuan Plus offers two battery pack options. With the 50.12-kWh unit capable of traveling 430 km (267 mi) under the CLTC cycle. The 60.48 kWh battery pack further allows it to go up to 510 km (317 mi) of range.[9]

Interior design is inspired by Gym and sports equipment such as treadmill, boxing ring, grip ball and dumbbells.[10][11]
