At a price range of Rs 41 lakh to Rs 53 lakh, the Seal is BYD’s most costly electric vehicle in India. It was introduced on March 5.

Being the first luxury electric MPV in India, it is unique in that it is built on an upgraded e-Platform 3.0. It has four stunning colour options: Cosmos Black, Aurora White, Atlantis Grey, and Arctic Blue. Its dimensions are 1,875 mm in width, 1,460 mm in height, and 4,800 mm in length with a 2,920 mm wheelbase. It keeps its 145 mm of ground clearance even when empty.
The BYD Seal includes a 15.6-inch intelligent rotating touchscreen display, 10.25-inch LCD instrumentation, wireless charging, an NFC card key, ventilated and heated front seats, a 12-speaker sound system, automatic dual-zone heat pump air conditioning, Cell to Body (CTB) technology, intelligence Torque Adaption Control (iTAC), nine airbags, ADAS Level 2, and more features.
All of the Seal lineup’s variations have the outstanding BYD Blade Battery.

Next up, the 82.56 kWh battery capacity is found in the premium and performance models. The former gives an impressive 650 km range and 5.9 seconds for 0-100 km/h acceleration, while the latter has a slightly lower range of 580 km but still makes an impressive 3.8 seconds for 0-100 km/h acceleration.
