BYD Sealion 7 Electric

Likes

Great cabin space, one of the best in it's class. Extra space in the front bonnet for groceries shopping or packed food as well, free up more space for the boot and smell of your "Dabao" Food.

Performance and power is more than sufficient despite the weight of the car. (308bhp/380NM torque).

Leather seats are real comfortable and with ventilated front 2 seats in our climate, it's a real blessings.

Nice whole moon roof with automatic shades are great. It doesn't seems to feel warm even when I open the sunshade on a hot day, maybe the higher end solor film really works well.

Sound insulation in the car is great. Quiet due to the double layer glass panel.

Some features you will only get in high end luxury cars came as a standard in here.

Karaoke system is cool

AI assistant also cool

Not too good

Charging speed seems to be longer than declared. The charging power plays a part but still took abt 10-20% longer then stated.

Not as efficient as other EVs in terms of mileage (compared to Aion or Xpeng G6)

Bodyroll is quite obvious, maybe due to the high seating position. Bumpy when going over humps.

Boot space seems to be tighter than declared.

Local solar film installation not that good.

Seat belts retractable not that sensitive.

Having owned many different brands which include, Toyoya, Honda, Opel, Subaru, Mercedez Benz and BMW for the past 20 years, I got disappointed over the fuel transmission upgrades since the last 10 years as there is very little progression.

Despite all the negative feedbacks on EVs, I decided to take a plunge. Having driven for the past few weeks including to Malaysia, I realized that most of the negative feedbacks are untrue. Filling up my car is so convenient now as I do not need to travel out of my way to find a petrol kiosk.

Sharp looking SUV, with insane interior space and epic legroom for everyone. I'm about 1.83m and both the front and rear legroom give at least a two-fist gap - super comfy!!

Performance? Next level! 0-100 in just 6.7 seconds with zero lag and crazy torque, making every drive feel effortless.

The seats are crazy too - the cushion feel is on another level and the ventilated front seats are just fire.

And for all these cool features, you don't pay extra - they come as standard!

I've owned this car for a month since Jan 22 and honestly, no regrets. Compared to the family E-Class, this ride beats it hands down in comfort, performance, and size!!

EV for the win!! Moving from a Z4 to a 4 Series Gran Coupe and now to this beast has been one upgrade after another!

The #BYD1 is a good choice if you want a strong, powerful SUV that is spacious and you want to save on fuel expenses.
