Globally, the next-generation EV BYD Seal competes with the Tesla Model 3, BMW i4, etc. The vehicle represents BYD’s bold and growing ambition to stamp further authority in the EV automobile market. The Seal follows the footsteps of BYD Atto 3 and blends a mix of sophistication and cutting-edge technologies.
In Nepal, BYD Seal made its bow during the NADA Auto Show 2023 and was one of the popular lineups at the fair. It could also lead the market in Nepal upon its commercial launch.
Exterior
The BYD Seal is built on the manufacturer’s Ocean Aesthetics design concept. It’s part of the BYD Ocean series consisting of BYD Dolphin. The car gets an X-shaped front giving it a bold and beasty look. The pop-up doors give it another cool satisfaction while also enriching the aerodynamics. The back of the four-wheeler gets unique curved LED taillights in dot matrix style.
Interior/Infotainment
BYD Seal inherits its interior and infotainment system from the BYD Atto 3. Sharing the “Ocean Aesthetics” value, the inside of the seal exudes a relaxing and vibrant atmosphere. The model features a 15.6-inch rotating display and comes with Android and iOS connectivity options. Coupled with this, a 12-speaker Dynaudio stereo maximizes the car’s indoor and overall experience. The infotainment system manages climate control, navigation, and other functions. There is a voice assistant feature too.
In the console, there are buttons to control driving modes, AC, etc. Additionally, there are USB Type-C and Type-A ports for smartphones and other competitive devices and a dual wireless phone charger as well. Thankfully, the CTB battery placement allows to offer more space through a flat floor. As a result, there is considerable space for legs in both front and rear areas.
The BYD Seal Dynamic has its seats made of artificial leather, the Premium and the Performance variants get original leather. The front seats have ventilation and heat features.
Advanced Cell-to-Body Technology
BYD Seal is the world’s first all-electric vehicle to implement the Cell-to-Body (CTB) technology. Inspired by the honeycomb aluminum panel structure, this technology incorporates the BYD Blade Battery across the vehicle structure and improves its safety.
In this technology, the battery pack’s top cover is integrated with the body floor structure which stacks the top cover, BYD Blade Battery, and the tray. The Chinese manufacturer claims that it has increased the power battery volume utility to 66% and system engine density by 10%.
What’s also noteworthy is that the CTB battery in the BYD Seal serves as an energy source while also being a structural part of it. The SEAL comes with a torsional stiffness of 40,500N.m/degree. It means an increase in handling limits and enhanced comfort, safety, and performance.
