2024 Nezha S or BYD Han, who is more worthy of starting？
The most handsome coupe with a class of 200,000 yuan released its annual change-in July, the 2024 model was officially listed, which attracted a lot of attention. The price of the new car is 159,800 yuan-269,800 yuan, which is even more laughed by fans that Nezha S is "more valuable"! In fact, in this year’s coupe market, there is also a highly discussed model, which was also released this year. It is the Han DM-i Champion Edition. So, what are the new highlights of these two new models? Who is more worthy of starting? Today, we chose the 2024 Nezha S 1160 version (retail price of 189,800 yuan) and BYD Han DM-i Champion Edition 121KM distinguished model (retail price of 209,800 yuan) for comparison. For the convenience of introduction, the two models are hereinafter referred to as 2024 Nezha S and Han DM-i Champion Edition respectively.
Design: a young sport and a calm business, which one do you prefer?

As a smart coupe in the new energy era, both cars are 4-door, 5-seat medium-sized and large cars, with large sliding back design in appearance and simple design tone. The overall shape is trendy and fashionable, which is very suitable for young people’s aesthetic needs.
However, both of them have reached the B+ level, which is the peak size of medium and large new energy cars on the market, but the Nezha S with long, wide and wheelbase is slightly ahead. As far as the overall visual feeling is concerned, the 2024 Nezha S brings the aspect ratio of the sports car class of 1.36, which has reached the super-high level of the same class. In addition, the design elements commonly used in sports cars, such as short front suspension, long rear suspension and large rims, make the whole car look lower and more ready to go, which also gives it a strong sense of speed and makes it look younger and sporty as a whole. Compared with the aspect ratio of Chinese DM-i Champion Edition 1.27, it seems to be quite satisfactory and more suitable for some business occasions.

Comparison of battery life: The 2024 Nezha S has the longest battery life in its class.
Endurance has always been one of the most critical selling points of smart electric vehicles. In this respect, both models are very powerful and can meet the basic commuting needs of users. According to the specific data, the capacity of the champion version of Han DM-i lithium iron phosphate battery is only 18.32kWh, which is less than half of the capacity of the 2024 Nezha S battery, which also brings different performances in pure battery life: the champion version of Han DM-i has a pure battery life of 121km, while the 2024 Nezha S has reached a leading position of 310km. In terms of comprehensive endurance, both cars have reached 1000+km. Whether it is a city ride or a long-distance outing, they can basically achieve "long endurance and no panic."
Performance comparison: The two cars have their own strengths, and the 2024 Nezha S configuration is better.
As for the driving experience that young users are concerned about now, the 2024 Nezha S is a rear-wheel drive, which has a more sensitive steering and a very good driving stability. In addition, it also has a rare suspension combination of front double wishbone and rear five-link, and its lateral stability suppression ability far exceeds that of the Chinese DM-i champion version of McPherson suspension. On the acceleration level, the maximum power of the motor of the 2024 Nezha S can reach 170kW, and it has a 6-second acceleration time of 0.000 km, which makes the speed increase faster at the start, and the acceleration will not feel fleshy. It can be said that the 2024 Nezha S 1160 version has achieved the ultimate sense of movement at a price of 189,800 yuan.
The Chinese DM-i Champion Edition uses the layout of the front drive, which is naturally less fun to drive than the rear drive. The peak electric drive power of the vehicle can reach 145kW. The suspension combination of front McPherson and rear multi-link is relatively satisfactory, with an acceleration of 7.9 seconds per 100 km, which is inferior to that of the 2024 Nezha S.
Intelligent comparison: High-tech hardware has been "on the bus", and the 2024 Nezha S is more abundant in configuration.
In the era of smart cars, consumers who are willing to choose electric vehicles often pay more attention to the intelligence of vehicles. At present, the automobile intelligence can be roughly divided into two parts, one is the intelligent driving assistance system, and the other is the intelligence of the vehicle. Let’s talk about it separately.
In terms of intelligent cockpit, stepping into the car, the interior configuration of the two cars and the technological atmosphere are clear at a glance. It can be seen that the interior of 2024 Nezha S adopts multi-screen design and embracing layout, with smooth lines, which also creates a very rich visual layering. As for the cockpit screen that can particularly experience the sense of technology, the 2024 Nezha S is equipped with a 17.6-inch central control screen for entertainment and vehicle control, and a 12.3-inch screen for the co-pilot. In addition, there is a 1.9㎡ panoramic heat-insulating canopy, four-door heat-insulating glass configuration, etc. The high-power 12-speaker configuration is also a rare high specification in the industry. What is even more surprising is that the 2024 Nezha S even provides a smart package of 21 speakers for users to choose from. These sincere interior configurations can make the user’s travel style full and comfortable.

On the other hand, the interior style of Han DM-i Champion Edition is relatively simple, but the materials used are not as elegant as that of 2024 Nezha S, and some functional configurations are not as rich as the latter. For example, seat ventilation and heating are only configured in the driver’s seat, and heat insulation glass is only installed in the front door. As for the screen, there is only a 15.6-inch central control screen. Although a more playable rotary touch PAD design is adopted, it is obvious that the co-pilot entertainment screen of 2024 Nezha S is obviously higher than the rotatable instrument screen of Han DM-i Champion Edition in terms of practicality and exclusivity. Moreover, the panoramic skylight area of the champion version of Han DM-i is not as large as that of the 2024 Nezha S, so the experience and comfort will be greatly reduced, whether on the commuting road or traveling.
Generally speaking, the cockpit design of the champion version of Han DM-i can also meet the taste, but it is slightly conservative and not as generous as the 2024 Nezha S.
In terms of intelligent driving, we can easily see that the 2024 Nezha S is better than the Han DM-i Champion Edition in terms of hardware configuration and function richness.
Specifically, the 2024 Nezha S is equipped with NETA PILOT 2.5 intelligent driver assistance system, equipped with 5 millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars and 5 high-performance cameras. On the other hand, Han DM-i Champion Edition matches its own DiPilot intelligent driver assistance system, and the number of radar configurations is less than that of 2024 Nezha S. In the specific functional configuration, in addition to the basic intelligent driving function, the 2024 Nezha S also covers high-level functions such as one-button remote parking and automatic parking assistance, so that users, whether novice drivers or old drivers, can control vehicles more freely and safely. However, most of the intelligent safety assistance systems carried by Han DM-i Champion Edition are basic configurations, which can also meet the needs of users for safe travel.
On the whole, the two cars are remarkable in terms of battery life and vehicle appearance, and each has its own advantages in intelligent configuration performance. It is not a problem to meet the daily intelligent needs of users with common intelligent configurations. However, if we want to choose a model with richer configuration, more advanced intelligence and better spatial performance, it is obvious that the 2024 Nezha S is a more "worthwhile" choice. Action is better than action. Why not take advantage of the opportunity of the listing of the 2024 Nezha S and quickly enter the store to experience it?
