The model
Read full BYD Sealion 7 reviewThe BYD Sealion 7 isn’t as good to drive as the best in class but otherwise it’s a compelling electric SUV. It has a smart yet practical interior, quiet cruising manners, competitive pricing and a generous equipment list. While we’ve yet to test the rear-wheel-drive Comfort version, we suspect it will be the one to go for because it offers the best value.
The trim

The engine
