I am living in Thailand where BYD dominated the EV market after just 2 years. BYD Seal U DM i costs here 30% less than a Honda CR-V. We own a BYD Dolphin (15 months, 38,000 km) and Atto 3 (12 months, 30,000 km) and I am very impressed of the quality.
Thank you Nigel. I think BYD have been really smart with the Seal U. Especially those who need to be frugal with their money. All that kit as standard is a massive draw to the brand.
Great review thanks...I had a test drive to compare to my Tesla MYLR as changing in Q1 2025, and was pleasantly surprised, and I think that a PHEV is the way forward to avoid any range anxiety for the odd long journey...only challenge is getting the local Stratstone garage to respond/follow up with the exceptional BYD finance deals available
Hey there Marc. Thanks for the comment. It’s a great all-rounder and the overall range of the car is a massive factor. I hope the dealership calls you back. I hate when the salesman don’t follow up. Always made sure my customers were happy.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. Which trim have you ordered? A couple in the village I live actually came to my house for advice on a new car to replace their Mazda. I recommended the Seal U and there’s now a lovely Boost on their driveway! Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling knowing I’ve helped.
I went with the boost! It’s due to come in February it’s brilliant the way it’s all fully loaded no matter what trim level you pick! Without videos like this people wouldn’t know about these new brands so well done sir 🎉
Hi, excellent content! Do you know if this has a heat pump and you can run in EV mode whilst heating the cabin without the engine running. Also is the any remote preheating possible with an app? Also did you experience if the adaptive cruise control is good and not erratic like some other Chinese cars

The heat pump is standard. Preheating is possible with the BYD app.
@bartdebaere1405 that's great, thanks 😊
Sorry for the delay but what the other person said is true. Don’t forget to liaise with your dealership.
i have ordered comfort 33550
I hope BYD will enter the Romanian market in 2025.
Fingers crossed Dave
Same, my wallet is prepared 😅
Lol you got the name of the car wrong in the intro 😂😂
Hey there Jeremy.
I did not notice that, thank you. lol I’m sure everyone will know the car I’m driving.
