About BYD Tang DM-i

The BYD Tang is BYD’s big seven-seat family SUV, and in the Philippines it arrives as the Tang DM-i – a plug-in hybrid rather than a full EV. That is an important distinction: the Tang DM-i pairs a 21.5 kWh Blade battery and electric motor with a 1.5-litre petrol generator, so you get the smooth, quiet, electric driving most of the time, but with the long-distance freedom of a hybrid. If you have been searching BYD Tang reviews or its Philippine price, this is the model on sale here.

The numbers make a strong case. On battery alone the Tang DM-i covers up to 110 km – enough for most daily commutes purely on electricity – and with the petrol generator topping things up, total range stretches to an impressive 1,160 km. The system makes a combined 267 hp and 315 Nm, good for 0-100 km/h in 7.5 seconds and a 200 km/h top speed. You can charge the battery on DC at up to 40 kW (30 to 80 percent in about half an hour), or simply fill up with petrol on a long trip.

Inside, the Tang DM-i is a proper seven-seater with a premium feel: twin digital displays, a large rotating infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a full suite of driver aids (adaptive cruise, autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert). Launched in the Philippines on 17 September 2025, the Tang DM-i is priced from ₱2,098,000, making it one of the most compelling electrified seven-seat SUVs in the market.

BYD Tang DM-i range and performance

The Tang DM-i is a plug-in hybrid, so it has two range figures. On the 21.5 kWh Blade battery alone it covers up to 110 km - enough for most daily commutes purely on electricity - and with the 1.5-litre petrol generator topping up, total range reaches up to 1,160 km. The combined system makes 267 hp and 315 Nm, dispatching 0-100 km/h in 7.5 seconds with a 200 km/h top speed.

The key appeal is flexibility: plug in at home and do your daily driving on cheap electricity, then rely on petrol for long provincial trips without stopping to charge. Regenerative braking helps stretch the electric range in city traffic. Just remember this is a hybrid, not a full EV - you will still buy fuel for longer journeys.

BYD Tang DM-i safety overview

The Tang DM-i comes with a comprehensive driver-assistance package, including adaptive cruise control, front-collision warning with autonomous emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert with emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring and a 360-degree camera, plus multiple airbags and electronic stability control. The Tang model line has previously achieved a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, and the DM-i uses BYD's safe Blade (LFP) battery, known for excellent thermal stability. Confirm the exact safety equipment of the Philippine-spec car with BYD Cars Philippines.

BYD Tang DM-i battery and charging guide

As a plug-in hybrid, the Tang DM-i can be charged from the grid or simply refuelled with petrol. On DC it charges at up to 40 kW, taking the 21.5 kWh battery from 30 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes; it also supports AC charging via a Type 2 connector for home top-ups. For the best efficiency, charge regularly and keep daily trips within the 110 km EV range, using the petrol generator only for longer journeys. Regenerative braking recovers energy as you drive.

BYD backs the Tang DM-i with a strong ownership package in the Philippines, typically including an 8-year high-voltage Blade battery warranty and a 6-year vehicle warranty (terms and mileage limits apply).
