BYD is continuing its stellar safety streak, with the Sealion 7 becoming its latest model to chalk up a full five stars under the Euro NCAP safety ratings.
On top of performing well in terms of whiplash protection, in the side barrier protection test, and for the severe side pole evaluation, the electric SUV netted outstanding scores for two of the four metrics that contribute to the ratings: For Adult Occupant protection and Child Occupant protection. Under both pillars, the car earned a rating of 87% and a whopping 93% for respectively.
The latter saw the car scoring maximum points for protection of all critical parts of the 10-year and six-year old dummies used during the test. On this note, it's worth pointing out that the car also comes with a child-presence detection system; this issues a warning upon detecting a child has been left alone in the vehicle.
The Sealion 7's full suite of driving assistance features also netted a joint Safety Assist score of 79%, with praise directed to the ability of the car's autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system to respond well not just to other cars, but also pedestrians and motorcyclists. The presence of lane-support and speed-assistance systems was also commended in the report.
