New car features
As the newest member of the Qin family, the BYD Qin L adopts the "New National Wave Dragon Face Aesthetics", with a delicate front face and a large bottom grille, making the overall appearance more atmospheric. The headlights are narrow and sharp, and the upward-pointing luminous "dragon whiskers" blend together to make the overall appearance more spiritual.
From the side of the body, the waistline runs from the front wing panel to the rear door, making the body more slender. It adopts the slippery back design, which adds some dynamism to the overall stability and atmosphere at the same time. We also see that the new car adopts the traditional door handle design.
At the rear, the wider rear shoulder wrap-around design not only echoes the front face, but also adds to the muscularity of the silhouette. Meanwhile, the car adopts a penetrating taillight styling inspired by Chinese knots, which pulls in recognition. It is worth mentioning that it applies a simplified BYD tail logo, and this tail logo can also be illuminated.
As for the dimensions of the model, its length, width and height are 4830/1900/1495mm, and its wheelbase is 2790mm, which is located in the mid-sized car. As a comparison, the body dimensions of the current Qin PLUS model on sale are 4765/1837/1495mm, with a wheelbase of 2718mm, so it can be said that the Qin L mid-sized sedan as a whole is bigger than the Qin PLUS by a circle.

The Qin L DM-i is available in four exterior colors: Ice Purple, Jianyao Purple, Runyu White and Tea Crystal Gray.
