Thank you very much for this. I just collected my AWD Seal 3 days ago this car is incredible beyond all expectations. Here in Morocco the version of the infontainement is 1.0 I didnt find any way to keep back headlights always on as the car in black colour appears a little too agressive when arrier leds are off. Thank you very much for your help.

Thanks for this, I'm considering strongly a Seal in Australia in a month or so. Could you do a video on the driving assist vision or whatever they use while on the road? I'd like to see how compares to the tech of the Tesla. Does it have a car on your dash and shows other cars or hazards etc ? Or is that just a Tesla thing. Appreciate it!
@EcoHouseThailand10 ай бұрын
The Tesla will beat the BYD on driving assistance software. I like the blind spot notifications on the Seal which come up very clearly on the mirrors and on the HeadsUp Display - I don’t want anything else, want to drive myself. You can have 360 degree cameras running as you drive. If driving assistance is top of your requirements buy a Tesla, but I would recommend test driving a performance Seal if you can - fantastic drivers car.
@ThePantheons10 ай бұрын
@@EcoHouseThailand Definitely not top of requirements, just cool to see at times while driving and thank you for the swift response! I have a Seal Superior (middle spec model in Australia) test drive booked. Most important for me is range efficiency to be honest. So done with gas guzzlers and we pay $2.40 a litre to the Saudis here in Oz! i want out for a greener future. Had you tried the Atto 3 at all? That's $10k less here, but doesn't have the mod cons of ventilated seats, etc Seal will have come Jan 2024..

Hi Paul, hope you are doing well, just collected my BYD Seal AWD today, unfortunately was stuck in BKK traffic so didn’t get a chance to use any of the power as yet, driving to Korat on Thursday so hopefully I’ll have a more opportunities to test the power haha.

Here in Thailand all the cables are present, but for some reason the cameras are not fitted. People have been importing genuine BYD cameras and selling them for ฿2,000 $56.

Just my opinion but I don’t think that BYD will catch Tesla at it’s own game of driver assistance and I think they have decided to not even try.
