Taller and wider sibling of Seal electric saloon brings more interior space to go with competitive range

BYD has presented its first plug-in hybrid for the European market at the 2024 Geneva motor show and detailed its specifications ahead of an inevitable UK launch. The new BYD Seal U is a slightly taller and wider sibling to the Seal electric saloon and is already sold in the brand’s home country of China as the BYD Song. Measuring 4775mm long, 1890mm wide and 1670mm high, the SUV is significantly larger than the saloon.

3kWh battery can be charged from 30-80% in around 35 minutes, and it comes with vehicle-to-load charging capability as standard. Standard equipment on the Seal U includes 19in alloy wheels, LED headlights, vegan leather upholstery, wireless phone charging, an Infinity premium sound system and the brand’s 15.6in rotatable infotainment system. Charging capabilities are yet to be detailed, but the Seal saloon can replenish its battery at rates up to 150kW, which is on a par with many current EVs.
