Our take on this /// Verdict
The BYD Seal Performance is a game-changer in the Indian electric vehicle market, offering a blend of luxury, performance, and cutting-edge technology that is hard to match at its price point. My experience with this car has been nothing short of impressive, with its sleek and futuristic design turning heads wherever it goes. The performance is staggering, with a 0-100 kmph sprint in just 3.8 seconds, thanks to its dual motors producing 523 bhp and 670 Nm of torque. The power delivery is smooth and progressive, similar to an internal combustion engine, which makes it a joy to drive. The car is also loaded with advanced features such as a rotating infotainment screen, 360-degree camera, and a comprehensive suite of ADAS features. However, the low ground clearance of 145mm might be a concern on Indian roads, but the suspension and chassis design mitigate this issue effectively. Overall, the BYD Seal Performance is a compelling choice for those seeking a high-performance electric sedan.
Price
The BYD Seal Performance variant is priced at Rs 53 lakh ex-showroom, pan India. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes and registration, the price can go up to around Rs 57-60 lakh, depending on the state you are in. This pricing is remarkably competitive, especially considering the performance and features it offers. For instance, it outperforms and undercuts many of its European counterparts, making it a strong value proposition. The introductory pricing strategy by BYD is clearly aimed at capturing a significant share of the luxury electric sedan market in India, and it seems to be working well given the initial demand.
Latest Updates
Monday, 12 August 2024 05:47 AM
The 2025 BYD Seal has been unveiled with significant updates, including an 800-volt electrical architecture, silicon carbide inverters, and advanced LiDAR sensors for enhanced self-driving capabilities. The new model features faster charging times, with a 10-80% charge achievable in just 25 minutes. The Seal also boasts improved performance, with the top-tier model accelerating from 0-100km/h in 3.8 seconds. I think these updates make the BYD Seal a strong contender in the EV market, especially with its competitive pricing.
Saturday, 10 August 2024 09:11 PM
The BYD Seal Performance has received a 5-star safety rating from ANCAP, with high scores in adult and child occupant protection, as well as pedestrian and cyclist protection. The vehicle also features a spacious 400-litre boot and a 50-litre frunk, making it a practical choice. However, its suspension could be improved for a smoother ride. I believe the safety features and practicality of the BYD Seal make it an attractive option, but the ride quality needs some refinement.
Wednesday, 31 July 2024 10:49 PM
BYD has announced that the Seal will be available in Australia with pricing starting from $49,888 for the base model and going up to $65,748 for the Seal Performance. The company aims to close the gap between the BYD Seal and the Tesla Model 3 in sales. With its strong performance and updated features, I think the BYD Seal has a good chance of gaining more market share.

The BYD Seal has been praised for its design, winning the iF Design Award for its ocean-inspired aesthetics. The car features a unique X-shaped front end and double U-shaped light clusters, enhancing its sporty and stylish look. I believe the design of the BYD Seal is one of its strongest points, making it stand out in the EV market.

The BYD Seal Performance has been noted for its impressive acceleration, reaching 0-100km/h in just 3.8 seconds, thanks to its dual motors producing 390kW and 670Nm of torque. However, the cars ride quality, particularly on uneven road surfaces, has been criticized for being jittery. I think the performance of the BYD Seal is impressive, but it needs to work on its ride comfort to match its high-speed capabilities.
Mileage
Monday, 18 November 2024 03:05 PM
The BYD Seal Performance boasts an impressive range of 580 km on a single charge, based on the WLTP cycle. This range is courtesy of its 82.56 kWh battery pack, which also supports fast charging up to 150 kWh. In practical terms, this means you can charge the car to 80 in about 1.5 hours using a 60 kWh charger, which is commonly available on Indian highways. The aerodynamic design of the car, with a drag coefficient of 0.219, further enhances its range efficiency. For daily commutes and even long road trips, the Seals range is more than sufficient, making it a reliable choice for those transitioning to electric vehicles.
