On October 13, BYD's Dynasty series officially launched its flash-charging luxury flagship sedan, the Han.
As the brand's first major 9-series flagship sedan after Dynasty surpassed ten million units, the Han is designed for the aspiring new elite, combining true 9-series flagship standards with 1,008 km of range, flash charging, rear-wheel steering, the YunNian-A dual-chamber air suspension, and God's Eye B, among other top-tier technologies, with 196 features standard across the entire lineup, delivering a new benchmark for 9-series flagship sedans.
The Han is offered in three variants: the 1008KM rear-wheel-drive LiDAR Prestige, the 1008KM rear-wheel-drive LiDAR Flagship, and the 880KM all-wheel-drive LiDAR Flagship, priced between 235,900 yuan and 275,900 yuan.
Redefining the luxury feel of a D-segment flagship sedan with true 9-series flagship standards
The Han measures over 5.2 meters in length with a wheelbase exceeding 3.1 meters, giving it genuine D-segment flagship dimensions.
In terms of design details, the world's longest mass-production 2.41-meter one-piece daytime running light displays the charm of a flying eave at dawn, maximizing recognizability, while the floating wheel badge keeps the "Han" character upright at all times, and the 21-inch Shanhe Mingjing large disc wheels look solid and dignified at rest yet full of flowing motion when driving.
For body colors, the Han offers four two-tone schemes and five classic solid colors. Chidi Red is imposing, Yunhai Beige is warm and restrained, Qianshan Cui exudes an innate elegant texture, Xinghan Silver is understated yet confident, and Yaoshi Black hides starlight within.
The sense of ceremony is equally impressive: before getting in, the phone's Bluetooth automatically unlocks the car without any action and the exclusive welcome light turns on automatically; when the door is pulled open, the seats and steering wheel automatically move back to free up entry space; after getting in, the door closes softly and the soft-close function takes over, making the whole process smooth and seamless.
Inside, the Han leads its class with a 90.8% cabin space utilization rate, creating a mobile luxury flat-floor living room. The front row comes standard with dual zero-gravity seats for comfortable naps at any time, while the white ash solid wood trim is hand-polished, with a single piece of raw material costing nearly 20,000 yuan, and every piece has a different grain, making each Han a unique existence.
The car is equipped with 31 Devialet speakers in a 7.1.4 layout, truly enveloping occupants in sound. The front row features a 40-inch AR-HUD head-up display and a 12.3-inch front passenger screen, while the rear row has a 17.3-inch ceiling-mounted screen, with eight screens throughout the car each serving its own role, complemented by eight independent headrest speakers to fully meet the needs of different passengers.
The right rear "president's seat" is specially built for business needs, with a four-way leg rest, a 90-degree footrest, and a backrest with 12-degree electric adjustment, offering comfort on par with a Maybach. The Han also features the same PDLC dimming glass as the Yangwang U8L, switching from transparent to opaque in one second, and with the privacy sound shield, it further meets business needs.
Elevating the flagship travel experience across the board with unreserved hardcore technology
On the technical side, the Han is equipped with the newly upgraded second-generation blade battery, achieving the longest range of any D-segment pure electric sedan at 1,008 km. Behind this ultra-long range, its ultra-low drag coefficient of 0.197 reaches the top level among mass-production cars and earned it the 2026 Automotive Aerodynamics Branch "Annual Low-Drag Model" award.
At the same time, the Han comes standard with flash charging, going from 10% to 70% in 5 minutes and from 10% to 97% in 9 minutes, with charging time increased by only 3 minutes even in an extremely cold environment of minus 30 degrees Celsius. By the end of this year, BYD will have built 20,000 flash charging stations, completely eliminating users' range anxiety and charging anxiety.
In terms of chassis, the Han supports rear-wheel steering of plus or minus 7 degrees, with a turning radius of only 4.95 meters, comparable to an A0-segment small car. At the same time, the YunNian-A dual-chamber air suspension is standard across the lineup, supporting 100 mm of free lift, keeping the body firmly planted over speed bumps and rough roads.
In the field of intelligence, the Han comes standard with God's Eye B - assisted driving LiDAR version, complete with highway navigation assist, city navigation assist, and full-scenario intelligent parking. Han owners also enjoy safety backing for intelligent parking and one year of city navigation backing. BYD's AI super agent "Didi Xia" is also standard, with three core capabilities: being able to chat, get things done, and play along, able to remember users' preferences, help users plan complex routes, and book hotels.
The Han is also equipped with BYD's self-developed smart buttons, letting users control the car with a press and a twist, making operation easy no matter where they are sitting.
In terms of performance and safety, the Han also holds nothing back. The rear-wheel-drive version accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds, while the all-wheel-drive version does it in 3.3 seconds, with power arriving quickly and actions clean when overtaking or merging, always leaving ample margin underfoot.
Going fast also means being able to stop. The Han's 100 km/h braking distance is 32.83 meters, reaching a leading level in its class. At the same time, the Han comes standard across the lineup with the TBC high-speed tire burst stability system, supporting stable control after a tire burst at up to 200 km/h in a straight line and up to 150 km/h in curves.
The passenger cabin is developed to C-NCAP five-star standards, with the use of high-strength steel and aluminum alloy exceeding 87% across the vehicle, and 11 core crash protection areas using 2,000 MPa hot-formed steel, paired with 11 airbags to comprehensively protect every passenger inside.
For extreme weather, the Han has also developed a heavy rainfall parking guard; when it detects rising water levels, the vehicle actively raises the suspension and reminds the owner through the mobile app to move the car in time, truly preventing trouble before it happens.
Balancing flagship luxury with everyday small joys through thoughtful details everywhere
Beyond its hardcore strengths, the Han also hides many inconspicuous but daily-use small configurations and functions. Inside the car, there is a jewelry box in the door panel, a front passenger hook, a password glove box, and 14 expansion points throughout the vehicle.
The front passenger password glove box can have its password set through the central control, and a single call of "Xiao Di" opens it electrically, allowing important contracts, documents, and wallets to be stored safely. With 36 storage spaces throughout the car, phones, keys, cups, and sunglasses can be placed anywhere without creating clutter.
The front passenger-side hook lets a morning takeaway coffee be hung up to avoid spills. The Han also had a dedicated exclusive car key made with a separate mold, with a complete and smooth curved surface in the hand, a light luxury texture that is understated, feeling warm and substantial in the palm.
In addition, the Han is specially equipped with ADB smart headlights, which actively adjust when an oncoming vehicle approaches to avoid dazzling the other driver, and the lighting distance can be adjusted as speed changes, improving driving safety.
Conclusion:
The Han, from breaking the market pattern to winning a million users, has given Chinese brands a place in the mid-to-high-end sedan market. Now, with true 9-series flagship standards, the Han enters a higher-level market, further driving the Dynasty brand upward.
The new car brings together the technical strength, prestigious experience, and capability expected of a 9-series flagship, and with 196 features standard across the lineup, it interprets the weight and warmth a flagship should have in the new energy era, fully deserving to be called the most worthwhile 9-series flagship sedan to buy in 2026.
