BYD Song Plus DM-i 2024: a Tez Motors review
Why Song Plus specifically
Over 9 months we've brought 80+ BYD Song Plus DM-i units into Uzbekistan. It's the most popular plug-in hybrid crossover in our market, for good reason.
Fuel use
Claimed 4.4 L/100 km hybrid. In Tashkent traffic we see 4.8–5.2 L mixed — near-miraculous for a 197-hp C-segment SUV. 110 km of EV-only range covers most daily city use.
Space and comfort
A 2765 mm wheelbase gives a genuinely roomy second row — three adults fit. The 574 L boot covers a family of four for weekends.
Tech
15.6" rotating display, wireless CarPlay, NFC phone key, Russian voice assistant (slow but functional). 360° cameras with decent resolution.
Quibbles
Soft suspension rolls in corners — not for spirited driving. Rear cabin sound insulation lags the front. At -10 °C in winter consumption climbs to ~6.5 L — still strong, just not 4.4.
Worth it?
Yes. At $22,500 nothing else gives you hybrid + AWD-trim option + this much equipment. Order with us — turn-key delivery in 30–45 days.
