BYD Qin Plus Sedan Gains New, Even Cheaper Plug-In Hybrid Version. Model From Chinese Brand Arrives to Compete Directly With Toyota Corolla.

Since it has strengthened in the automotive market, BYD has been introducing models across various categories and has now launched a more affordable version of a hybrid sedan. Called the Qin Plus DM-i, the BYD sedan is a plug-in hybrid, priced to compete with the Toyota Corolla and draws significant attention for its embedded technology.

BYD Qin Plus Sedan Is Sold for R$ 55 Thousand (in direct conversion)

The idea behind the Chinese brand launching the Glory Edition of the Qin Plus DM-i is primarily to attract consumers of compact combustion sedans and also to capture the attention of more affordable versions of mid-size sedans.

In China, the BYD Qin Plus sedan is sold for prices around R$ 55 thousand. This new version of the Qin Plus Sedan, rivaling the Toyota Corolla, manages to be cheaper than the old variant. Previously, the cheapest Qin Plus cost about R$ 13.8 thousand more than the currently sold model.

What Is the Range of the Toyota Corolla Rival?

The Qin Plus DM-i Sedan features a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engine with 110 horsepower and 13.7 kgfm of torque. Meanwhile, the electric motor can deliver either 180 hp and 32.2 kgfm or 197 hp and 33 kgfm. Thus, like the Dolphin, the BYD Qin Plus sedan also has a Blade battery that can be 8.32 kWh or 18.32 kWh.

However, its all-electric range is only 55 km. Thus, the electric mode is more recommended for urban roads. Even though it’s an affordable model, the new plug-in hybrid version of the Qin Plus Sedan comes well-equipped.

The BYD Qin Plus DM-i sedan features a digital instrument panel, a large touchscreen multimedia center, and can have leather-upholstered seats and even a leather-covered dashboard. Its more refined sibling, the Qin Plus, equipped with Super DM-i technology, is expected to arrive here.

It is worth mentioning that test units of the Qin Plus DM-i were recently spotted driving in Brazil. After its debut in China, the expectation is that the model will be made available in other countries and regions.

BYD Launches Electric Car for Less Than US$ 10 Thousand

BYD recently launched an affordable electric car at an unprecedented price. Costing around US$ 9,500, this new model, called Seagull, has shocked the international market.

In terms of performance, the model does not disappoint, offering two range options that can reach 322 and 404 km on a single charge. This type of range, combined with a fast-charging system that can charge the battery from 30% to 80% in just 30 minutes, positions this Tesla rival as a practical option for short trips.

The affordable electric car is powered by BYD’s lithium iron phosphate battery, which they developed internally, further reducing costs. The introduction of this model could mark a turning point in the market. Its price is quite competitive even against various gasoline vehicles like the Honda Fit.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

For the first time, scientists have mapped the Etna magma system in almost real time and discovered where the volcano was storing large volumes of molten material before years of eruptions, revealing an underground reservoir that fills and reorganizes like a living organism beneath the mountain.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Brazilian city becomes a global destination after attracting tourists who travel up to 10,000 km to visit a sanctuary with 11 giant saints up to 10 meters tall, open 24 hours and located along a highway in SP.

Brazil may have railways back on the map, but it will need the government: a study reveals 7,412 km ready for reactivation, a cost of R$ 75 billion, 61 sections analyzed, and none viable without public funding.
