After entering 2019, it is not difficult to find that domestic brands, which used to dominate the domestic new energy market, began to add a lot of pressure on competitors. This stems from the fact that joint venture brands and luxury brands have been "late" for a long time and started to exert their strength in the domestic energy market, and launched different levels of pure electric vehicles respectively.
However, whether it is a domestic brand with good sales volume and early entry into the market, or a joint venture brand and luxury brand that has accumulated a lot of money, it has been deeply cultivated in an autonomous driving and promoted as a highlight. Not only are manufacturers trying to publicize how advanced their self-driving function is, but even during the previous shop visit, Mr. Bang heard that many consumers kept asking salespeople about the self-driving level of their vehicles and the functions they can achieve, so it can be seen that consumers still rely on this function.
Previously, during the process of exploring BYD Song Pro EV, Mr. Bang had heard that some consumers asked the sales staff, and BYD Tang EV and DM models could upgrade the automatic driving function to realize real L2-level automatic driving. Coincidentally, Mr. Bang recently received an invitation from BYD to go to BYD Xinminheng 4S store in Daxing District to experience the three major functional upgrades of the new generation of Tang models.
Which three highlights are upgraded?How to upgrade?
BYD specially launched a free upgrade activity of "Enjoy the upgrade with wisdom, be all for you" for the new generation of Tang EV and DM models. The upgrade projects brought by this upgrade activity include active lane keeping system, 360 holographic transparent image system and karaoke function.
▲ The maintenance master checks the vehicle before using the computer to upgrade it.
In order to ensure the customer experience during the upgrade process, the above upgrades will be opened in batches. The new generation of Tang DM and EV models began to make an online reservation on December 16th (booking the upgrade time to the store on and after December 20th), and officially started to upgrade to the store on December 20th; The fuel version of the model began to make an online appointment on December 28, and officially opened to the store for upgrade on January 3 of the following year. In addition to telephone booking with authorized service stores, the booking method can also be successful by logging in to the "Difenhui+"WeChat applet, authenticating the owner and entering the booking service interface, and completing the information according to the guidelines.
▲ This major upgrade project is included in the option "(Bosch) Multimedia Video Controller", with the version number of 2.00.12.
The three functions of this upgrade are provided by the manufacturer free of charge, and the reception services are provided by authorized service stores, and only the basic working hours of authorized service stores (399 yuan) need to be paid. This is undoubtedly a major benefit for the new generation of Tang car owners; As far as BYD is concerned, it is also an important recognition that it has been pursuing technological innovation to bring about the "common and often new" evolutionary experience.
▲ The maintenance master said that the communication of some main controllers will be blocked during the upgrade process, so the corresponding fault codes will pop up on the dashboard.
What models can be upgraded?
1. A new generation of Tang EV Zhilian creation type, Zhilian creation type and Zhilian creation version.
▲ Tang EV
2. A new generation of Tang DM four-wheel drive distinguished model, Zhilian Chuangrui model, Zhilian Chuangxiang model, Zhilian Chuangling model and Zhilian Chuangshi version.

What will the three highlights become after the upgrade?
1. 360 holographic transparent image system
Starting mode: it can be turned on by the steering wheel button.
▲ Before the upgrade, it was opaque.
On the basis of the original panoramic composite top view, according to the images collected by four super wide-angle cameras around the vehicle and the actual vehicle motion law, they are input into the image processing chip, and then processed by software to be seamlessly spliced to output panoramic images, presenting a holographic transparent bird’s-eye view of the whole vehicle. Using this system, users can easily show the obstacles on the road to drivers, and drivers can make corresponding evasive actions according to the road conditions to ensure safe driving.

2. Active lane keeping system
Starting mode: it can be started through the vehicle options in the DiLink screen, or through the function buttons in the shift area.
The lane dividing line is identified by the MPC camera on the top of the front windshield. When the vehicle speed is ≥ 60 km/h, if the vehicle deviates from its own lane and the turn signal is not turned on, the system will first issue a warning prompt. If the driver doesn’t respond, the system will exert a torque on the steering wheel through the EPS electronic steering system to keep the vehicle in the own lane, reduce the driver’s steering burden and improve driving comfort. In this process, if the driver turns on the turn signal or turns the steering wheel at a large angle, the system defaults that the vehicle is taken over by the driver and stops intervening. When the vehicle speed is less than or equal to 55 km/h, the active lane keeping system will quit.
▲ Before the upgrade, there was only the "lane departure warning" function.
The sensitivity of this function can be set to "standard" and "intelligent". Standard: In the case of lane change, sudden acceleration and deceleration, the function will not be inhibited; Intelligence: Restrain the implementation of this function in case of lane change and sudden acceleration and deceleration. In addition, in order to reduce the interference of the system’s active exit to the driver, the lane keeping assist system cannot set the steering wheel vibration reminder function, and the instrument will beep for early warning when the system actively exits.
▲ The "lane keeping" function can be displayed after the upgrade.
When the lane keeping assist system is working, when the system monitors that the driver has not grasped the steering wheel for 15 seconds and is out of control of the vehicle, it will give a warning of getting rid of it, and the instrument will prompt a warning text reminder of "Lane keeping has been withdrawn, please take over the steering wheel"; At this time, if the driver still does not hold the steering wheel to control the vehicle, the function of lane keeping assist system will exit; The warning will also be issued when the driver continues to operate the steering wheel only slightly to control the vehicle.
The lane keeping assistant system is based on the multifunctional camera on the front windshield. If the camera detects that the visual field is dirty, the instrument will pop up a text reminder that "the environment is limited and the smart camera is not available"; If the front windshield where the camera is located is damaged, it will seriously affect the normal use of the lane keeping assist system.
3. K song function
Start-up mode: use the equipped microphone to match the channels without radio, and then open the K-song software supported by the system, including national K-song, sing bar, cool K-song, Mi Gu love singing, love singing, K-meter, K-singer, wheat singing, multi-singing, good singing, etc., to start karaoke in the car.
▲ National K Song Software
After the K-song function is upgraded, all vehicles will be able to use the K-song function, and the UI interface will be more interactive and experience-oriented, allowing users to enjoy the charm of mobile KTV.

With the end of "tradition" and the rise of "intelligence", the connotation and definition of automobile are changing. In the modern Internet era, although the depreciation rate of Xing energy vehicles is still in a "higher" trend, continuous iterative upgrading can help new energy vehicles reduce the depreciation rate. And BYD’s upgrade activities for a new generation of Tang models that have been on the market for some time are the best examples.
On the other hand, from the perspective of automatic driving, the Qin Pro series and Song Pro series of BYD Dynasty series have been equipped with L2-level automatic driving function, and the new generation of Tang, as the flagship model in the family, has realized a complete L2-level automatic driving assistance function after this upgrade, which can not only improve the sales volume, but also create a better practical experience for users.
