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.

Range-topping Excellence adds real Napa leather seats and a head-up display. It also gets a larger battery than Comfort and Design, allowing for 311 miles of official range.

The bigger-battery version has 523bhp and four-wheel drive, allowing for an official 0-62mph time of 4.5 seconds.
