BYD SEAL
HATCH & SEDAN
WATT MATTERS?
The Seal remains one of BYD's strongest design statements. Low, sleek and available with serious performance, it challenges the idea that affordable electric sedans must be visually anonymous.
THE BASICS
The currently advertised Australian range comprises rear-drive Premium and all-wheel-drive Performance models. Claimed WLTP range is 570km for Premium and 520km for Performance. Confirm current pricing and stock with BYD.

THE WATTCAR TAKE
The Seal offers an appealing mix of style and specification for the money. Buyers should decide whether they want the longer-range touring version or the faster all-wheel-drive car, rather than treating the range as interchangeable.
