⚡️ Electrifying Performance and Range

The BYD Sealion 7 is engineered on the advanced e-Platform 3.0, ensuring efficiency and superior safety with the ultra-safe BYD Blade Battery. In Nepal, the electric SUV is available in the Premium Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) variant.

This trim is powered by a permanent magnet synchronous motor delivering a robust 230 kW (312.7 PS) of power and 380 Nm of torque. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in a brisk 6.7 seconds.

The RWD Premium variant houses an 82.56 kWh Blade Battery, offering an excellent WLTP range of up to 482 km on a single charge.

For those demanding the ultimate thrill, the All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Performance variant, expected to follow, unleashes a combined 390 kW and a staggering 690 Nm of torque, achieving the 0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.5 seconds. The Sealion 7’s fast charging capability allows a charge from 30% to 80% in approximately 24 minutes, minimizing downtime.

Design: Ocean-Inspired Aesthetics

The Sealion 7 immediately captivates with its “Ocean Aesthetics” design language. Its sleek, dynamic silhouette mimics the fluidity and power of the ocean, giving the vehicle a commanding road presence.

At the front, the powerful X-structure and sleek LED lighting are inspired by the BYD Seal sedan, creating a bold and recognizable face.

The SUV boasts generous dimensions, measuring 4,830 mm in length and featuring a long 2,930 mm wheelbase, which directly translates to a spacious interior.

The chassis is tuned for both comfort and agility, incorporating a Double Wishbone front and Multi-Link rear suspension with Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) shock absorbers. This system actively adjusts to road conditions, providing a smooth, stable, and responsive ride.

✨ A Cabin That Redefines Luxury

Inside, the BYD Sealion 7 EV is a sanctuary of premium technology and comfort. The cabin is minimalist yet luxurious, featuring a magnificent 15.6-inch intelligent rotating touchscreen infotainment system as its centerpiece.

Safety forms a core part of the Sealion 7’s design. The vehicle has achieved a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, confirming its uncompromised protection standards. It comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of safety features, including 11 airbags and an advanced Level 2+ Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS).

Furthermore, the integration of iTAC (Intelligent Torque Adaption Control) technology actively manages wheel speeds and power distribution, enhancing stability and control, particularly on challenging Nepali terrain.

Additional intelligent features include a 360-degree camera, parking sensors, and a range of collision mitigation systems, ensuring drivers have full confidence and awareness on every journey.
