FAQs
-
Is the range anxiety causing or is the BYD Seagull practical for daily use?
04 February 2025 06:01It's anxiety-inducing for sure. If unexpected, long trips are necessitated, maybe you want to reconsider. I would always be worried about running out of juice.
-
Is the game changer the BYD Seagull or just another batch of Chinese junk?
04 February 2025 06:01Safety is not something I'd worry about while speed is not a problem either, but range anxiety is something I'd worry about on long highway trips. A crash seems scarier than running out of charge.
-
Is the BYD Seagull good enough for daily driving?
02 January 2025 06:48People have to get their expectations right. This is not a Tesla, it's an affordable city car. The performance is fine for what is would have been used for.
-
Will BYD Seagull’s success inspire other manufacturers to bring more affordable EVs to the market?
02 January 2025 06:48I hope so! More affordable EVs are what we desperately need to accelerate adoption. Other manufacturers might need the Seagull to be the kick in the pants they needed.
-
Is the BYD Seagull's real world range a deal breaker?
02 January 2025 06:48I honestly don't think it's a deal breaker. At 250km, it's plenty for daily commutes, or some longer trips. We have to be realistic about what people actually need to drive.
-
Is the BYD Seagull built to justify its price tag?
02 January 2025 06:48I believe people are just too hung up on brand names. Who cares if it’s from a newer company if it’s well built and affordable? Good quality doesn't have to be expensive and BYD is proving that.
-
Could the BYD Seagull compete in Western markets?
02 January 2025 06:48All will depend on marketing. If BYD can build customer trust and provide good after sales support, they can overcome the stigma of the 'Chinese car'.
