Sealion 7

Well specified, very quick and reasonably efficient. Motorway speeds run the battery down rapidly probably because the car is heavy. Space inside is generous and the seats are comfortable. A decent choice at the price in Ireland (€58k) There have been issues with poir radio reception but four(!) software upgrades fixed them.

Very good value for money in terms of equipment, build quality and very good materials, very nice styling of the BYD Seal U DM — and the lack of a spare wheel; the repair kit in new cars is, in my opinion, a failure.

I'm very happy with the car. The savings compared to a gasoline car are enormous. The car is very comfortable and spacious. Driving it is very pleasant. Best of all is the sunroof — the views from the back are impressive — and the large screen it comes with.

It has more advanced technology; significantly lower running costs, driving enjoyment, excellent range, greater power, and instant torque that’s also useful for safety.

Several tests have said that the quality on the outside and especially inside is on par with the German premium brands, if not even higher.
I can confirm that. Incredible for this price.
At 2.4t it's not a corner-carving car. Still, the driving performance is impressive. Compared with my Tiguan Biturbo 240PS, fuel/charging needs have been cut in half.
Consumption and range always depend on the driver. Whether electric or internal combustion. Anyone who drives an EV changes their thinking. Charge when possible, not always only when necessary. Many supermarkets, McDonald's, etc. already have charging options. While eating or shopping, plug in, done. The car is parked anyway. No extra time!
If I think just of the DSG start with that one-second hesitation... that doesn't exist with an EV.
You have to experience it. You don't need 500 hp for that.
I drive the BYD Sealion 7 'Excellence' and I'm mega satisfied

A much better vehicle than the 6. It beats it in practically every area. Faster, more room inside, better trunk, more comfortable

I'm disappointed; the exterior beauty wears off, the trunk is almost toy-like, the acceleration is weak, and the very basic sound system doesn't do justice to what you expected.
