The European Launch of the sleek and sporty BYD SEAL D-sedan
Using BYD’s Ocean X Design Language, the dynamic BYD SEAL, built on the advanced e-Platform 3.0, epitomizes many of BYD’s latest technologies for safety, comfort and performance.
It is the first vehicle to utilise BYD’s innovative CTB (Cell-to-Body) technology which integrates the body and the Blade Battery for superior levels of structural strength, offering torsional stiffness at sports car level. The BYD SEAL all-wheel-drive also benefits from BYD's latest iTAC (Intelligent Torque Adaption Control) for advanced stability, handling and safety performance.
BYD SEAL is available in two trim levels: the rear-wheel-drive (RWD) 'Design' (230 kW) and the all-wheel-drive (AWD) ‘Excellence’ (390 kW), in six appealing colour options. The BYD SEAL offers a 570/520km (WLTP combined) driving range for practicality, with an exhilarating acceleration of 0-100 km in just 5.9/3.8 seconds depending on variant. The BYD SEAL utilises the 82.5 kWh ultra-safe, cobalt-free BYD Blade Battery.
Preview of the BYD SEAL U all-electric SUV
The D-segment SUV BYD SEAL U also makes its debut appearance in Munich. The spacious BYD SEAL U with capacity for five occupants and generous cargo space, is defined by its stylish Ocean inspired aesthetics, with high levels of safety, comfort and practicality. Representing excellent value in the all-electric SUV market, it will be available to European consumers during the first half of 2024.
Michael Shu, Managing Director, BYD Europe, says: “We are delighted to bring six of our latest NEV models to IAA, giving customers greater choices for eMobility. We have made significant progress in entering new markets in Europe. Just twelve months ago, we introduced our brand to Europe and in less than a year, we created a presence for our brand in 15 European countries and opened over 140 stores. We are working in conjunction with the very best dealer partners to create a network that delivers premium customer services and retail experiences. We look forward to expanding that further, giving more consumers the opportunity to experience the benefits and advanced technologies of BYD electric cars.”
Wolfgang Egger, BYD Design Director, added: “BYD’s design goal is to make a statement for the future, for new energy mobility to suit different needs. A key part of our design ethos is to preserve the motion and beauty of what we have enjoyed for so many years on ICE cars. And when we talk of the future, this goes beyond new platforms, new architecture choices, innovation in technology, and innovation in design. Our aim is to create an emotional connection, as we have done with the BYD SEAL and SEAL U through a combination of aesthetics, performance and technology.”
Committed to offering a diverse range of eco-friendly vehicles, BYD brings extensive choice, game changing innovation in EV technology and greater accessibility to electric mobility in Europe. Last year, globally BYD has achieved 1.86 million NEV car sales.
