this is by far the best looking ev it drives like a sports sedan especially the hero colour (I'm not sure the colour name i couldn't remember it 😅)👌☺️
We're curious to put it to the test. EVs in general are not as engaging to drive. Their weight make them slow to turn in and change direction. Wonder if the Seal can do better.
@@soyacincautv wow it was pretty good but it was curious a little bit 👌
BYD Seal is the world's best EV supercar
Are you a BYD Seal promotion bot? I’ve seen you comment this on every Seal video on CZcams😂
@@kevinsamuel3930I am a BYD loyalist and I bought a seal a month ago and everything is very satisfied
I like BYD more than Tesla, However the complaints about not wanting to touch the screen to adjust side mirror while driving? You can just turn on driving assist and use the screen as you wish.. I do that even with my Dolphin.
Does this car have a kickdown on the gas pedal? Like, while driving in eco mode with itac off, does flooring the gas pedal give the car maximum power to get out of trouble?
In what situations would u turn itac off?
Good review Alex. Thanks
And all these EV performances can only get better as EV technology is still new compared with gasoline cars' technology which is at least 60 years old.....
There is a lot of room for improvement for EV especially in part of the battery.
Imagine how good cars like this will feel when batteries get lighter and vehicles like this shed the 3-500kg in excess weight
True, technology improve over time. Even ICE car also improve in recent years and EV is not that new. Depending on your definition of new and EV, if you omit the 19th century invention of EV, our generation has withnessed the rapid development of EV since 1990s.
EV is a lot longer though.. EV exist long before oil is found
How much is the road tax for the premium version?
The signal sound can be change to normal "tik-ta"...
Need a similar spec'd and priced SUV for that ground clearance
Does this car need maintenace at certain km like ice car?
you still need to service aircond, brake fluid, brake pad, change tyres, wiper blade..
How about the reliability and cost of maintenance and repairs.
Released in China in September 2022 and outside of China in September 2023, The BYD Seal is a relatively new car, so there's not much data to go by in terms of reliability.
We can go with the data we currently have and we can say that BYD has a good track record in battery production. The Seal has received positive reviews for its build quality, comfort, and range.
The biggest concern people have about EVs is the battery, in this respect BYD Seal uses BYD's Blade battery. This battery is highly regarded for its reliability, safety, durability and lifespan.
Good performance
Unbeatable for the price. Punches well above its weight in value.
Sunshade included compare to others
Just a hassle to put it on and take it off.
@@soyacincautv yup
Put half only
get white if u worry too much on the sunroof being hot
I acknowledge that I may be the only person who doesn't quite like the styling of this car.
look like normal sedan, not classy at all.
later road tax suddenly got rm1000 difference with premium version
because higher motor power and heavier car
I am not sure, but i have a feeling road tax will be calculated on weight, range and motor power.
Why? because it seems MOT like they are taking their time devising the formula, so it must be this complicated.
They have already given their promise that road tax won’t be more expensive than the petrol/diesel counterparts
@@vbdemystified709 yeah but the counterpart for byd seal is equivalent to a v8 petrol suv in term of the weight and the power
@@vbdemystified709yes..they promise like this, which is cheaper than petrol. but how low is low, I also interested to see. as this is 500 plus horsepower. so, its will be cheaper than 500horsepower petrol engine. how cheap is cheap. I also dont know. but I guess is still above rm1k?. dont know. gomen for sure still want revenue right.lol
@@H_B_Rvery complicated calculation. government want revenue but at the same time dont want to impose too high roadtax to make sure people migrate to ev. last time it is based on kilowatt batter power. I think not cheap. it will be cheap vs petrol, but not too cheap, and not too expensive either like v8 petrol engine
@@rabbitcat5371 its fair to say that anything in excess performance that is not produced by malaysian companies like proton and perodua will be expensive. I think that will be not more than 150kw at most. Or they would not count motor power at all into the calculation because road damage is cause by weight and distance travel. And maybe there is also CO2 emission tax.
High HP high torque but top speed capped 180kmh meh 🙃
Cheap to buy but current road tax calculation were rm7.5k a year on 2026 because of that power 😂. It’s a big penalty for a car that top out at 180km/h.
The Govt hasn't finalised the roadtax structure for EVs, hope they do a thorough evaluation before finalising.
@@soyacincautv True. It's just something to think about in the long run.
Road tax gonna be a pain
Why do you say that?
CHEAP is not the right vocal for rm200k range car. You hurt my feeling
Would you take it over a Tesla. Yes of course you would as you mentioned it 3 times and that was never in question especially after your so called apology video! , just shocked you are not talking more about the unquestioned superiority of your EV6.
With your lack of insight into Tesla and BYD ownership, you miss out on many critical issues like deep OTA, service schedule, charging network, App experience.
Are we buying a car or another iPhone bruh? Get a life, don’t spend your life in a car
@@vbdemystified709 why don’t you write a review about eating a hamburger in a chicken restaurant. Would make as much sense as your comment here
400v bro.
Top speed just 180km how to challenge Tesla with standard top speed 205km 😂😂😂,
Not mention Tesla OBC is 250Kw , BYD seal OBC is 150Kw , that far away
Top speed is just 180km/h and that is not enough for you? Can you share video of you driving above this speed?
@@boonchewchan8245He thought he was living in Germany maybe 😅
top speed is because limited by regulations. not because machine's ability.
@@Lagoost, perhaps he is Michael Schumacher's son or someone with talent in racing. I hope he is so that we can be proud of him as we have never had F1 world champion before. I am eagerly waiting for his video and perhaps could throw in some chip to sponsor him if he prove himself of such calibre.
Come show your 205km drive :) we will make you famous!!
Too much talk. Too little action. Can't he stop talking a bit?
