Practical and affordable plug-in hybrid
Looking for a well-specified plug-in hybrid SUV boasting plenty of kerb appeal? The Seal U DM-i is a low-cost solution that comes with a host of innovative technologies.
Oceanic inspiration
It’s appropriate that a car that takes its name from an agile marine mammal should possess ocean aesthetics. Indeed, the Seal U DM-i’s streamlined, modern look is emphasised by fluid, dynamic lines that evoke the ocean's natural beauty. Inside, this theme is continued with premium materials, multi-colour ambient lighting and advanced technology, creating a serene and sophisticated environment.
Eye-catching alloy wheels
The Seal U DM-i rides on 19-inch alloy wheels which offer numerous benefits. These include improved fuel efficiency due to their lighter weight, enhanced handling and performance, and superior heat dissipation, which prolongs brake life. Additionally, they provide a stylish, modern appearance, increasing the vehicle's aesthetic appeal and overall value.
Enhanced visibility
Double U-shaped lights with staggered clusters deliver intense beams of light and enhanced visibility, ensuring a safer driving experience. It’s the same story at the back of the vehicle: a continuous taillight comprising a refined water-drop matrix pattern that adds extra visual appeal to the rear fascia.
Cool colours
The BYD SEAL U DM-i offers a stunning range of exterior colours to suit every taste. Choose from pristine Snow White, moody Delan Black, sophisticated Time Grey or striking Tian Qing Blue. Each finish enhances the vehicle's modern design, ensuring your ride stands out on the road.
Roomy interior
A long wheelbase ensures plenty of space front and back, and this family-friendly five-seater features a 425-litre boot which quickly expands to a 1,440-litre capacity with rear seats folded. What’s more, numerous useful cubby spaces are strategically placed around the cabin.
Eyes on the road
A carefully positioned head-up display delivers vital driving data that’s always in your line of sight, ensuring your eyes remain on the road and you enjoy enhanced safety and convenience. (Available with Design grades.)
Visionary tech
The BYD SEAL U DM-i's interior showcases a cutting-edge design, featuring a sleek floating centre console with a double-layer storage compartment. This innovative setup enhances practicality and elegance, providing ample space and a modern aesthetic that elevates your on-road experience.
Forever connected
Stay in touch with the outside world via an expansive, rotating touchscreen that provides access to an array of infotainment features, real-time driving data and much more. Alternatively, use intelligent voice control to enhance your motoring convenience.
Efficient performer
A 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine and an electric motor deliver 319 bhp and 550 Nm of torque, enabling 0-62 mph in less than six seconds. Moreover, while producing low CO2 emissions, the Seal U DM-i returns up to 256.8 mpg.
Five-star safety
Awarded Euro NCAP’s maximum five-star crash-test rating, the Seal U DM-i is very safe indeed, boasting Blind-spot Detection, Intelligent Cruise Control, Rear Cross-traffic Alert, Rear Cross-traffic Brake and more.
