Find your perfect SEALION 7

Cars available now

The 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.

This is the entry-level version and it comes well-equipped, featuring heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, keyless entry, dual-zone climate control, adaptive cruise control and vehicle to load (V2L).

This smaller battery is paired with a 308bhp electric motor driving the rear wheels, helping the Sealion 7 sprint from 0-62mph in a respectable 6.7 seconds. The official range is 299 miles.
