  • We drive the BYD Seal, the newest EV from China to hit the Indian market. But should its origins matter? Should you buy one? That and much more answered by Cyrus Dhabhar in this extensive, consumer report-styled review.

    here in Kathmandu, BYD has absolutely whitewashed the Cretas and Brezzas with the Atto 3. BTW They cost 35 lakhs INR here. Since petrol vehicles are taxed at nearly 300% and EVs at about 80%, buying an electric vehicle is a no-brainer in Nepal and BYD is winning big.

    I am all in for BYD, let our Indian businesses wake up from their slumber. What is stopping them from offering 500/600 km range, it is just weight that has to be added. Our own manufacturers are exploiting us for every 25/50 kilometers more (top-end model with more range), if this is what it takes to teach them a lesson, so be it.

    My uncle was looking for a sedan in the range of 50-60lakh and his top priority was a Camry or an A-class. BYD Seal does look like it ticks all the boxes and for his usage 600km range is more than enough. This is indeed a great car and as far as I have heard from BYD owners, they are happy with the product and are used to getting higher than estimated range every now and then.
