The BYD Destroyer 05 (Chinese: 比亚迪驱逐舰05; pinyin: Bǐyǎdí Qūzhújiàn 05), sometimes translated in English sources as the BYD Chaser 05, is a compact sedan manufactured by Chinese automaker BYD Auto. The first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) of BYD's new "Ocean Series" of plug-in electric vehicles, the Destroyer 05 is equipped with the DM-i hybrid technology and heavily based on the older BYD Qin Plus and Qin Pro compact sedans, sharing the exact same wheelbase dimensions and height while featuring completely restyled front and rear end designs.[2]

In Uzbekistan, the vehicle went on sale in March 2023 as the BYD Chazor,[3][4] in Latin America such as Brazil and Mexico in early 2024 as BYD King,[5] and in the Philippines in November 2024 as the BYD Seal 5 DM-i.[6]

Overview

[edit]
BYD Destroyer 05 rear

Originally the model was unveiled in November 2021 during the Guangzhou Auto Show, the BYD Destroyer 05 was launched on the Chinese car market in March 2022. The Destroyer 05 is a compact sedan and also the first vehicle of BYDs Warship-series, which comprises EVs and PHEVs. The 120 km (75 mi) pure electric range version of the Destroyer 05 supports 25 kW fast charging and charging from 30 percent to 80 percent takes 25 minutes.[7]

The interior of the Destroyer 05 is equipped with an instrument panel with a diameter of 8.8 inches (220 mm) and the main touch screen is 15.6 inches (400 mm). The main touch screen can rotate from landscape to portrait.[8]

The Destroyer 05 also comes with the DiPilot intelligent driving assistance system that provides users with advanced driving-assisting functions including active braking, maintaining lanes, adaptive cruise control, and pedestrian recognition and protection.[9]

Powertrain

[edit]

The BYD Destroyer 05 is powered by BYD's DM-i hybrid EHS system in two variants with two battery sizes. Both versions are fitted with a 1.5-litre petrol engine producing 81 kW (109 hp; 110 PS) and come with either one or two electric motors based on trim levels for a combined output of 132 kW (177 hp; 179 PS) or 145 kW (194 hp; 197 PS) respectively. The smallest battery is offering a pure electric range of 55 kilometres (34 mi) while the larger one allows it to travel up to 120 kilometres (75 mi) on electric battery power alone.[10] The BYD Destroyer 05 has an ultra-low fuel consumption of 3.8 litres per 100 kilometres (74 mpg‑imp; 62 mpg‑US) and a combined range of over 1,200 kilometres (750 mi) on a full tank of fuel and full battery charge. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) is 7.3 seconds.[9]
