The BYD Qin (Chinese: 比亚迪秦, after the Qin dynasty) is a compact sedan produced by BYD Auto since 2012. The Qin started out as the plug-in hybrid version of the BYD Surui, and was introduced in the Chinese market in August 2012.[1] Currently, the Qin is available as battery electric vehicle, as a plug-in hybrid and previously as an internal combustion engine vehicle.
The Qin is the successor of the BYD F3DM, the world's first mass-produced plug-in hybrid automobile which launched in China in 2008. In April 2012, BYD replaced the F3DM with the Qin.[2][3][4] The first-generation Qin is the plug-in hybrid version of the BYD Surui (the second-generation BYD F3), and deliveries in China began in mid-December 2013.[5]
The second generation model includes two variants called the BYD Qin Pro and BYD Qin Plus. The BYD Qin Pro was launched in September 2018,[6] while the succeeding Qin Plus was launched in 2021. An updated version of the first generation is sold alongside the second generation Qin variants.
