Overview

edit

The Sealion 07 EV was first introduced on 17 November 2023 at the 2023 Guangzhou Auto Show.[2][3][4][5][6] It was launched at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show in April 2024 and went on sale in the following month.[7] It was developed with the Tesla Model Y as its main competitor benchmark.[8] It first went on sale outside mainland China in Hong Kong as the BYD Sealion 7.[9]

The Chinese market Sealion 07 EV is based on the e-Platform 3.0 Evo, an evolution of the previous e-Platform 3.0. The notable changes include a 12-in-1 electric drive system, which improves integration over the 8-in-1 of the e-Platform 3.0. It also supports electric motors that spin up to 23,000 rpm, higher than any other motors ever produced by BYD.[7] Like the BYD Seal, the Sealion 07 EV utilizes BYD's cell-to-body (CTB) technology.

In China, two LFP blade battery options of 71.8 kWh and 80.64 kWh are available. The former capable of charging at up to 180 kW and the latter at up to 240 kW. Both battery options can charge from 10 to 80% within 25 minutes, and the car has vehicle-to-grid capability.[10]

The Sealion 07 EV features BYD's new DiSus-C intelligent damping body control system, an adaptive suspension that senses the road condition and reactively adjust the rigidity of the wheel dampers.[2] It is the first BYD vehicle to be equipped with the DiPilot 100 (nicknamed "God's Eye") advanced driver-assistance system, which is reportedly integrated with 12 ultrasonic sensors, 5 mm-wave radars and 11 omniview cameras.[11] It also features Napa leather upholstery, 50W wireless charger and a 50-inch AR-HUD, with electrochromic moonroof being an optional feature.[10]

Export markets

edit

Outside China, BYD marketed the model as the Sealion 7. In September 2024, the model was introduced in Hong Kong,[12] Nepal,[13] and Mauritius.[14] European launch of the model was held in October 2024.[15]

Outside Europe and China, the Sealion 7 adopts the older e-Platform 3.0 with 400V electrical architecture, instead of the more advanced e-Platform 3.0 Evo with a 800V electrical architecture used by the European and Chinese market Sealion 07 EV. As a result, its DC fast charging speed is limited to 150 kW, while the Chinese market model supports up to 240 kW.[12][16]

Europe

edit

The Sealion 7 was introduced in Europe at the Paris Motor Show on 14 October 2024. The European model is based on the e-Platform 3.0 Evo platform with DC fast charging at up to 230 kW, and will be available with a 91.3 kWh battery pack for the top all-wheel drive model.[17]

Hong Kong

edit

The Sealion 7 went on sale in Hong Kong, its first major export market, on 30 September 2024. It is available with a 230 kW (308 hp; 313 PS) rear-wheel drive model and a 390 kW (523 hp; 530 PS) all-wheel drive model, both powered by a 82.5 kWh battery.[9]
