Yes it has seat memory function Sir, another input is that snow button you said, its actually a Traction control button.

[@motoroids]

Yes figured later 😜

[@KARAMSINGH-ld9xq]

Really enjoy ur reviews...onwards and upwards...

[@motoroids]

Glad you like them!

[@CThienV]

Australia has 3 variants. The top two have seat profiles, activated through the screen

[@motoroids]

Whoops, maybe we should have looked there

[@singlanand]

It has seat memory function.. screen main hai.. 2 positions

[@motoroids]

Thanks

[@sajilum124]

Nice review 👌

[@sameersyed1300]

Wonderful explanation👏

[@motoroids]

Thanks 😊

[@bobbyus]

Nice review sir. Thank you ☺️

[@motoroids]

Welcome!

[@nish.8808]

Really really really really

[@motoroids]

🙏 really

[@mohammadshahid6690]

Bro ioniq 5 ka wheel base 3000mm hai aur byd seal ka 2920mm. To ioniq 5 se long kaise hui.

[@motoroids]

Wheelbase isn't equal to length. Some cars with shorter wheelbase can be longer overall with longer bodies and lengthier overhangs

[@ravishekhar6852]

It has a memory function

[@motoroids]

Yes, it's on the screen. Our bad

[@bharathreddy971]

Byd should launch another suv as good as this sedan or even better!

[@motoroids]

Yes, but they won't

[@tanishqjain2039]

There is a suv model of the seal called seal u

[@Sahilisonline]

So you can compare it with a Verna but not something closer ti its own size. 20 saal say review aaise kia xD

[@motoroids]

It's for context as I mentioned. So everyday people can figure what the real size of the car is. There is nothing like it in the market as of now, and I compared it with its closest competition the Ioniq too.

[@Sahilisonline]

@@motoroids Skoda Superb's length is 4,869 mm, Skoda Octavia's length is 4,689 mm, and the Seal's length is 4,800 mm. While the Verna is 4,535 mm.

[@LuvvSURYA]

Ummm...shouldn't Toyota Camry be a better choice than Seal at this price point?

[@motoroids]

Electric VS hybrid. Apple & Orange?

[@LuvvSURYA]

@@motoroids : Ummm… I won’t say it’s a complete Apple and oranges. Maybe you could say apple and custard apple. Why? Because one is a complete battery powered while the other is half petrol and half battery powered. But the more important thing to consider here is that it’s people like you and I who knows there’s a difference between an EV and hybrid. But for layman or people from our parents era, all they care is the money they are spending on a car. And given the price bracket of ₹50 lacs, which car should be a better ans sensible option - Seal or Camry?

[@motoroids]

Key difference is people who are willing to rely entirely on charging networks vs those who still want fuel. In that sense it's still petrol vs electric

[@motoroids]

Answer is Camry in today's scenario

[@LuvvSURYA]

@@motoroids : Well, if you go by the key differences which basically is you asking to go technical route that an average common person isn’t much aware of, EVs obviously have an upper hand over hybrids. And those who knows those key differences, would definitely look out for the charging infrastructure before signing the deal. But I think for the majority of the population (in the given segment) and the kind of charging infrastructure we have it here, hybrids are more practices and sensible choice over EVs. IMO EVs are still a novelty for the Indian market.

[@RoGamg]

It looks dated

[@motoroids]

We'll have to agree to disagree there mate 😉

[@naughtyUphillboy]

See it in real life !!!!!!

[@Navyguy]

*saying 'NO' to Chinese products - big NO* !

[@motoroids]

Every single component on the phone you used to type that message, is likely Chinese. Our job is to review products. We don't make policy. Don't kill the messenger please 🙏

[@CThienV]

You must not own many things

[@jasonchang8601]

Your sore loser attitude makes me smile as it wont change anything lmao.

[@optimistic_tmg79]

World largest economy usa can't avoid chinese product 😂

[@sujanbhusal43]

Throw your mobile because it is made with Chinese components😠 Looser🤣

[@naughtyUphillboy]

So it is a 20-25 lakh car

[@motoroids]

It can be offered for 30 if they built it here, because CKD still attracts duties

[@sreesub]

@@motoroids I think they are trying to buy market share here. Otherwise with the duties it seem really cheap. Every other country it seems more expensive.
