Електромобіль BYD Sealion 05
The latest regulatory documents from the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) have revealed information about new BYD car models. These are the all-electric Sealion 05, hybrid Seal 05, and hybrid Seal 07.
The Sealion 05 will be the second all-electric vehicle in the Sealion series after the Sealion 07. It is a five-seater crossover measuring 4525 mm in length, 1860 mm in width and 1630 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720 mm. Two versions are available with the same top speed of 180 km/h, equipped with one electric motor. The difference is in the peak power of the engine: 140 kW or 160 kW. The Sealion 05 is slightly smaller than its hybrid counterpart, the Sealion 05 DM-i, which is 4710 mm long.
BYD is also expanding its hybrid range with the Seal 05, a plug-in hybrid sedan that features a 1.5-liter 74 kW internal combustion engine and an electric motor with a peak output of 120 kW. Four variants of the Seal 05 hybrid will be available, each with a top speed of 180 km/h.
The Seal 07 is not a completely new model, but a new performance-oriented hybrid version is now available. This version is equipped with two engines with a total output of 350 kW, which allows it to accelerate to 100 km/h in just 4.7 seconds.
In addition, BYD has filed applications for other models, such as the new Qin Plus, Dolphin, Denza N9, and Fang Cheng Bao Tai 3. However, their characteristics have not yet been disclosed.
The new models demonstrate a change in BYD’s approach to the electric vehicle market. The company aims to expand its customer base by offering a diverse selection of electric and hybrid vehicles. The needs of Chinese EV consumers are changing rapidly, and hybrid cars are becoming increasingly popular.
