    Please let me know if the seats are cooled or just ventilated. Lots of car reviewers use the two interchangeably like they mean the same thing. Does cold air from the vehicle's air-conditioner come through the seat perforations or they are just ventilated?
    Nice video guys, thanks!

      Hey Frazer,
      Good question it is really easy to get in and out, it’s spacious enough where you don’t feel like your boxed in and I’m pretty tall, so I don’t even hit my head on the way out, worst feeling when you accidentally smack you head getting out 😂. Hope this helps.

    I see some sloppy considerations here. To bring out the features of the car, you should choose the background that support the promotion of the car. In the cheap fence and not even cut grass, you already suppressed the sleekness, the shines of the painting…Cheap backgrounds and cheap lighting make the car look cheap.
    Did you do that for Tesla?

    The level 2 autonomy is terrible on a byd it can’t even keep in its lane when turning. Tesla is is the gold standard for autonomous driving and software. I have driven the byd seal i still prefer my model 3 it has better software and autopilot is superior. If u like driving though this is a good car to drive reminds me of a audi a4, way too many buttons reminds me of a ICE vehicle. Very cluttered dash the byd.

      @@wichanee932 I don’t think u know what good software is, byd has better than most, but the gui and lag is horrific, compared to tesla, its still night and day. Tesla efficiency is still way better than BYD, and u can charge faster than a byd. 12kw AC and 250kw DC on a Tesla model 3 and Y. Also teslas do have better performance, BYD is cheaper for a reason, they cost cut alot. BYd autonomous driving as i said is rubbish compared to tesla, BYD was made to feel and ride like a traditional ICE car, traditional controls for people that hate change.

    Sure, I can help you with that. Here's a rewritten version of your text:
    I often wonder about these reviews and are they are paid endorsements? The reviewers only say things like this looks cool or so sporty, without providing any numbers or data to back up their claims. I recently compared the BYD Seal and the latest version of the Model 3. The M3 has a much larger trunk and frunk space. The BYD Seal has hardly any autopilot features. By the way, autopilot is meant to enhance safety, not to let you watch Netflix while driving. The BYD Seal is more expensive than the M3. It also has a lower charging rate of 150 kWh, while the M3 can charge at 250 kWh. The M3 has a longer track record of battery performance and reliability. The BYD Seal uses a new battery technology, but its long-term effects are unknown. Moreover, the reviews don't mention anything about the charging network. It doesn't matter how good your EV is, if you can't charge it, it's just a brick.
