The Seal U (Sea Lion 06 in Australia) is actually the facelifted BYD Song Plus in China. The Song Plus pre-facelift BEV and PHEV combined is the best-selling BYD in China and it belongs to the Dynasty (Song Dynasty) series of the product range, but this facelift brings some major exterior changes to the car and it now belongs to the Ocean series in China, although it is still called BYD Song there. That's probably why it's called the "Seal" on the overseas market. Btw BYD PHEV system's name stands for DM-i: fuel efficiency, DM-p: performance, DM-o: off-road.

Seal U (or Song plus) is actually a budget hybrid SUV in China. You can get the best fuel efficiency and very decent space. It's a good choice for replacing Rav, Xtrail and Breeze but even cheaper. Personally, I won't choose this one because I can afford better stereo system, screen, suspension, and seats (for instance, Denza N7, also made by BYD). But for most of the people, this is good enough for daily commute, travel or even camping, alone or with your family. So it is still the best seller SUV in China.

They just released their 5th generation PHEVs this past week, and are making big claims about even lower consumption, including urban driving tests showing HEV mode (so with battery depleted) consumption as low as 2.2L/100km! Depending on how much electricity costs in your area, not charging the car at all and only using gas to power the car might actually be cheaper, which is crazy.

Its Chinese name is Song Plug-in hybrid, been tested in the markets for years already, DMi is an amazing hybrid system that gives you power and also fuel efficiency, but it is not the newest technology from BYD, should have leopard 5 in Australia

It's not bad looking to me. It'll all be down to confirmed UK price and specs. PHEVs are good if they fit your use and can charge them regularly. I don't like to see PHEVS that are never charged and just bought to save company car tax. I think BYD are missing a trick in not bringing the full EV too, that'll give more choice. Even better if they could give more choice by launching a smaller battery hybrid to cover for everyone.

This car is the first-selling SUV in China in recent years, so there is no doubt about its reliability.

Thanks for a thorough, well-delivered rundown on the vehicle, which is looking to be very popular in Australia. The presentation is rather impressive, seeming very well made, and switchgear is light, yet positive. However, there are a few baffling omissions from an otherwise considerable feature list from the (right-hand drive) Australian model, like a memory for the driver's seat position, and I'm told also the heated steering wheel.

They certainly could be a good 'gateway' model for then moving to a full EV... but only if the battery is regularly charged and utilised. When depleted, the fuel efficiency of the petrol engine will drop significantly (between 15%-30% from real-life user reports I've read) and its exhaust emissions increase dramatically - neither of which is good financially nor environmentally.

ok so basically there are two types of hybrids, non plugin hybrids which have tiny batteries compared to plug in hybrids and the second hybrid option is a plugin which has a larger capacity battery. since the battery is soo big the engine cannot make much energy to charge it unless the engine is used as a generator. non plug in hybrid which recharge from the engine are designed for towns or low speeds as the motor output isn't big enough as it would require a lot more battery power/capacity. whereas a plug in hybrid has a larger motor with a larger motor output and since the battery has a big capacity it can actually power the motor for quite a while. if you didn't understand what I've said then you're better off watching a video on youtube just search'' types of hybrid cars''

BYD is NOT the biggest EV maker in the world. It was for Q4 2023 but Tesla regained the crown in 2024. Also, the so called EV range is CLTC measurement system so over-stated by about 30%. The Seal U is in no way related to the Seal low slung sedan. Different platform is used and dates back to 2010. The Seal U is not available as a BEV in RHD configuration and won't be. The Sea Lion 07 is the car to wait for and buy in 2025. It uses the same platform as Seal, Atto 3 and Dolphin. BYD engineered Sea Lion 07 to be either LHD or RHD from the get-go.

The issue with Chinese cars now days isn't really the quality.. but the fact that the prices only exist due to government subsidiais and almost slave work force. Not to mention that they infringe patent instead of fully create tech.

Clearly haven't done your research, China has a lot of IP in the EV supply chain from refining to batteries to the EV platform itself if you took the time to look. That's why they can't be sanctioned in this industry (unlike semiconductors) and the usual suspects can only enact tarriffs to slow them down. And the tired trope of slave labour, just stop - look at how many industrial robots are required to manufacture these things. Don't mistake lower wages in China vs heavily unionised fat cat work force in the west for slave labour.

Infringe patent. What patent would that be. I know German auto giant VW have bought a 5% stake in Chinese ev maker Xpeng for 700 million dollars to enable them to jointly develop future ev models. Similarly Audi also just signed a collaboration agreement with Chinese automaker SAIC to jointly develop high end smart cars. The Germans know ev innovation is happening in China not back home.
