Overview
The BYD Sealion 7 is a sleek, tech-focused mid-size electric SUV aimed squarely at the Tesla Model Y, and the entry Comfort RWD trim delivers an impressive WLTP range of up to 300 miles from its 82.5kWh Blade Battery. A 230kW rear-mounted motor accelerates it from 0-62mph in 6.7 seconds, while DC charging at up to 150kW takes the battery from 10 to 80 per cent in around 30 minutes. Inside, the Sealion 7 offers a premium, minimalist cabin with a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen, 12-speaker Dynaudio sound, heated and ventilated front seats and a panoramic glass roof as standard. With refined ride quality, rapid charging and BYD's six-year warranty, it is a compelling and generously equipped alternative to the established premium electric SUVs, priced from £46,990 on the road.Want the full picture?
