Carplay is also wireless. You can also use three fingers to swipe to change temperature or fan speed (left/right or up/down), and this works with car play running. It's such a pleasure to drive. I'm getting about 300 miles right now driving with a heavy foot :)

The latest OTA update for BYD cars adds swipe gestures for the AC controls. It's an amazing feature which practically renders physical controls obsolete.

I will die on the hill that physical controls will always be better for climate control than any screen-based ones, whether they're swipe-based or not.

Unfortunately, that OTA software updates had not been released at time of filming. It's great to see BYD releasing new features though!

I like how Jasper shaved for the driving portion. Proper dedication to weight reduction right there.

The driving portion was filmed in the order you see it in the video, so after the interior bits and before the conclusion. No shaving for this bit occurred!

Great review. Great car. What I love about most BYDs is that they used LFP batteries, even the performance variants, and they have great rears seat legroom as well as a really good ride.

The UK has gotten so bad! You can get a Seal Performance for £36k driveaway. And our taxes are bad as well, but seems Australia has priced them right,

Looks great, shame about the boot and roof shade which are real dealbreakers 😢

@BuckleUpShow

Ай бұрын

The boot space is actually very useable. In an upcoming video you will be able to see how we got 3 bags of golf clubs in it with room to spare 😅. The roof shade is a bit of an odd one, but the glass is tinted so you don't have to use it. I wouldn't let it be a deal-breaker for you.

@vasil7410

I've survived a hot Australian summer without any need for the roof shade at all. The heat rejection treatment in the Seal roof is superb, it's nothing like our Tesla roof, which turns the car into an oven. The specified volume of the Model 3 boots by Tesla is also misleading. BYD quote a volume not including the underfloor space, but Tesla quote a boot volume including the underfloor capacity and side pockets (594L). The reviewers just seem to take these numbers at face value and don't question the obvious discrepancy. The real luggage capacity of the Model 3 boot is 425L, versus the 400L in the Seal. We have both cars and there is not much difference in boot capacity between them. Indeed, the Seal has more a bit more capacity with the seats down.

You don't need the roof shades. I was driving around in 40c in Melbourne last summer and hardly any heat came in thanks to the silver coated roof. Much better heat rejection than Tesla
