BYD Cars Philippines, in partnership with ACMobility, has introduced the BYD Seal Advanced — a new variant of its flagship electric sedan that combines impressive range, cutting-edge safety features, and refined design. This rear-wheel-drive electric vehicle aims to bring the brand’s performance and technology to a broader audience at a more accessible price point.
The Seal Advanced offers a driving experience that balances performance, efficiency and safety. With a 61.4 kWh Blade Battery, it delivers a solid range of 510 kilometers (NEDC), making it a practical choice for both city commutes and longer drives. This variant features BYD’s Cell-to-Body technology, which integrates the battery directly into the car’s structure.
Under the hood, or rather the rear axle, a 203 PS Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor powers the car, delivering 310 Nm of torque. The sedan sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.5 seconds, blending quick acceleration with smooth handling.
“The BYD Seal Advanced is designed for drivers who prioritize efficiency, safety, and advanced technology. With its impressive range, extreme comfort, and extensive ADAS features, the Seal Advanced promises a safe and reliable everyday driving experience. This is the perfect choice for today’s electric vehicle owner who wants to experience the pinnacle of BYD design and technology,” Bob Palanca, managing director of BYD Cars Philippines, said.
Convenience is key to Seal Advanced’s flexible charging capabilities. Its 110 kW DC fast charger can juice up the battery from 30 percent to 80 percent in just 30 minutes. For regular use, the 7kW AC charger allows for an overnight recharge at home in around 12 hours. These options make it easier to embrace an electric lifestyle without stressing over charging stops.
“Expanding the BYD Seal lineup with the Advanced variant allows us to reach a broader segment of the Philippine electric vehicle sedan market. This new addition reflects our ongoing commitment to offering a diverse range of electric vehicles that cater to the needs of more Filipino drivers as we continue to expand BYD’s presence in the country,” Aiffy Liu, country head of BYD Philippines, said.
Step inside the Seal Advanced, and you’re greeted by a cabin designed for both luxury and functionality. A rotating 15.6-inch touchscreen dominates the dashboard, paired with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster for seamless connectivity via wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The interior features full leather with suede accents, adding a touch of sophistication, while comforts like dual-zone climate control, an advanced sound system, wireless charging, and power-adjustable seats make every journey more enjoyable.
On the safety front, BYD equips the Seal Advanced with its Di-Pilot Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS), which includes features like Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Detection, and a 360-degree view camera with See-Through Mode. With eight airbags and a suite of active and passive safety systems, the Seal Advanced is as secure as it is stylish.
The new BYD Seal Advanced is priced at P1,998,000 and comes with an 8-year or 160,000-km for the BYD Blade Battery, an 8-year or 150,000-km drive unit warranty, and a 6-year or 150,000-km vehicle warranty.
