New Energy-Saving Option: Analysis of BYD Seal Product Highlights!

JohnSep 13, 2024, 04:30 PM

As the global trend of electrification continues to evolve, electrified vehicles, especially hybrid models, are being enthusiastically sought after. However, due to the economic environment and the advancement issues of charging infrastructure, the market ownership of electrified vehicles in Malaysia has always been low. So, how would BYD Seal, an electrified vehicle, be promoted in a market obsessed with fuel vehicles? Today, let's talk about the highlights of this electric car from China? BYD Seal currently has three models on sale, with a price range of RM 163,800 to RM 199,800.

2024 BYD Seal Dynamic EV: RM 163,800

2024 BYD Seal Premium (Extended Range): RM 179,800

2024 BYD Seal Performance AWD: RM 199,800


1.Price advantage: The lowest price of BYD Seal is RM 163,800

The BYD Seal released the BYD Seal Premium (Extended Range) and BYD Seal Performance AWD models in February this year, and also recently introduced the entry-level model BYD Seal Dynamic EV, lowering the threshold of purchasing the BYD Seal model. The lower entry price is also one of the highlights of this car. The current price of the BYD Seal Dynamic EV is only RM 163,800, which can reduce the price by up to RM36,000 compared with the two models launched earlier.

However, it should be noted that the feature of BYD's price reduction is relatively common in its original homeland of China or other foreign markets. Considering Malaysia's high acceptance level for used cars, besides paying attention to discounts for buying new cars, we should also consider the impact of price reduction on the value of the used car market when buying BYD Seal.

It's worth mentioning that the main competitor of the BYD Seal, the Tesla Model 3, is priced between RM 181,000 and RM 242,000, which is RM20,000 to RM 50,000 higher than the BYD Seal, highlighting the price advantage of the BYD Seal model.

2. Youthful sporty design style: BYD Ocean Aesthetic Concept!

The BYD Seal is positioned as a D-class car, with a body length of 4800mm, a width of 1875mm, a height of 1460mm, and a wheelbase of 2920mm. The overall appearance and size are consistent among all three models, and the design optimizes space to meet daily consumer needs. Given Malaysia's relatively high birth rate, the proportion of young people is also higher, thus a youthful sporty style can satisfy the aesthetic demands of young consumers.

The BYD Seal adopts BYD's "Ocean Aesthetic" family style design language. The front face of the car is very distinctive. The large area of the enclosed grille not only conforms to the identity of the electric car, but it also corresponds with the sharp lights on both sides, creating a visually ready-to-go effect. Worth noting, the distinctive LED daytime running lights blend with the front headlights, enhancing the technological feel.

On the side of the BYD Seal, the fastback car body design can enhance the sportiness of the car and optimize its aerodynamic performance. The hidden door handle design enhances the sense of integrity of the car body and can reduce the air drag coefficient, thereby enhancing the car's performance.

In terms of the rear design of the BYD Seal, it is designed with a through-type tail light design, which echoes the styling of the front face of the car, thereby widening the visual width of the rear of the car. The small ducktail spoiler design can enhance the overall sense of movement and aerodynamic performance of the vehicle.



3.Performance: Up to 650km of range and 0-100km/h in just 3.8 seconds!

The range of the three BYD Seal models ranges from 460km to 650km, whereas the range of the competitive model Tesla Model 3 is 513km to 629km. Apart from the entry-level model, BYD Seal Dynamic EV, the overall continuous driving performance of BYD is superior to that of the same level of cars, and the range can fully reflect the technical strength of the car.

It is worth mentioning that the BYD Seal is currently equipped with BYD's self-developed blade battery. The biggest feature of the blade battery is its "blade" shaped lithium iron phosphate battery cell that is directly inserted into the battery pack, just like a blade inserted into a razor, which can save space and improve the storage efficiency of the battery. The battery capacity can reach 61.44kwh to 82.56kwh.

In addition to the battery life representing long-distance performance, what people are concerned about in electric vehicles is the vehicle's power performance. The 0-100 acceleration time of the three models of BYD Seal ranges from 3.8s to 7.5s, showing a remarkable explosive performance. Interestingly, the model with the fastest acceleration time of 3.8s will have a 3.8s mark on its rear, which is highly recognizable.

In terms of power engine, the maximum horsepower of BYD Seal can reach 523 PS, the maximum output power is 390KW, and the maximum torque is 670N·m. For consumers who need a operating driving experience, they can consider the high-end model of BYD Seal, 2024 BYD Seal Performance AWD.

(BYD Seal Power Performance)

Compared with Tesla Model 3 of the same level, BYD Seal has a price advantage, and it is not inferior in terms of battery life and power performance. In addition, BYD Seal's self-developed blade battery technology is a major highlight, which can provide consumers with a safer and more reliable car experience. Although the currently popular ones are still fuel vehicles, with the advancement of the global electric vehicle wave, it is believed that an environmental protection wave of electric vehicles will always be set off here!
