Few new cars in Saudi Arabia start lower than the Qin Plus, and none of the others are plug-in hybrids. It is a 4,765 mm saloon with a 500-litre boot and a 1.5-litre engine working alongside an electric motor.
Price a home wall box alongside the car. On this one, the charger is the accessory that pays for itself. A used plug-in answers the same question differently, so read the used BYD listings too.
What does a BYD Qin Plus cost in Saudi Arabia?
Two trims sit unusually close together. The Comfort 1.5L PHEV opens at SAR 69,900 and the Design 1.5L PHEV tops out at SAR 72,900 — a gap small enough that the higher car is worth taking for the equipment alone. Both use the same plug-in drivetrain, so nothing about the driving experience is behind the paywall.
Does a Qin Plus need to be plugged in?
Not at all. The petrol engine drives the car regardless of what the battery holds, which means no charger, no cable and no planning if you would rather not bother. Charging at home overnight simply shifts your short daily trips onto electricity and cuts the fuel bill; skip it and you still have a normal, economical hybrid saloon.
BYD Qin Plus or Toyota Corolla?
The Qin Plus is the cheaper car with the more advanced drivetrain, and for a city commute with home charging available it will cost noticeably less to run than anything petrol-only at this price. The Toyota Corolla counters with a service network in every town and resale values a young brand cannot yet approach. The Honda Civic is the enthusiast's pick of the three and the most expensive.
What should you watch for on a Qin Plus as it ages?
The hybrid battery and the cooling system are the components worth having inspected properly rather than assumed, and the inspection report CarSwitch produces on the individual car is where that shows up on a specific example.
Is a used Qin Plus the better buy?
Only if you find the right one. Used examples generally sit around SAR 55,000 to SAR 70,000, roughly 20% under the new entry price and about SAR 15,000 saved — a smaller discount than the segment norm, because these cars are still young and there are not many of them. Given how little the new car costs and that a used one gives up part of the warranty, the new purchase is easier to justify here than on most models.
