How Electric-Centric DM-i Tech Works

BYD's Dual Mode Intelligent (DM-i) technology uses an electric-centric design. The powertrain prioritizes electric driving whenever battery charge is sufficient. When the battery drains, the gasoline engine starts up primarily to function as a generator—contributing direct mechanical drive only during high-power situations.

This smart energy management achieves low fuel consumption and minimal emissions while allowing everyday commutes to run entirely on electricity. BYD plans to continue expanding its electrified lineup across the Portuguese market.
