Isabelle has a sweet smile and seems to be a calm girl, so she adds to your videos..!

This Seal looks fine, Bjørn. Temperature management is something the Chinese have a hard time managing. I like watching Isabel with you. I have a son and this feels quite familiar. Peaceful. Thank you, Bjørn.

@@Tafsern then you clearly didnt see Bjorns noise level test. It placed 9 on his list. It is quieter than the model Y.

Bjorn getting upset with Chinese Helga and Isabel playing in the child seat in the same frame is priceless and cute!

Seal U will be my first electric car, the other option was Enyaq. After the test drives, the whole family voted for Byd, the whole is convincing and especially the comfortable ride and good sound insulation were convincing. Not to mention the equipment in this price range, and the interior also has its own atmosphere compared to the Skoda. Driving is really easy, smooth and calm. If you are looking for a sporty driving feel, then this is certainly not the right choice 🙂The warranty is good, and the delivery time is short from the European temporary warehouse. The car will arrive to us within a month... Greetings to Isabel :-)

Didn't testdrive IONIQ 5? BYD's "autopilot" and choppy cruise control is a dealbreaker for me. We love our IONIQ 5. Loads of space, backseat bench can be adjusted forward, lots of equipment for the money (360 camera, V2L, ventilated seats, summon, HUD etc), super fast charging, long warranty, 1600kg towing.

@@Danne89 Yeah sure... it's a great car! At least in Finland, it's quite a lot more expensive than BYD, you should have taken the premium equipment level, so money was one factor for BYD. I also don't really like its appearance, although many think it's one of the most stylish. Warranty is about the same...

@UgglemannenFTW 6 ай бұрын

Also the Seal U got LFP batteries and the ioniq 5 does not. So no worries charging to 100 every time. @@Kannistosvk

How is it going? I'm also going for the BYD Seal U, by far the best in class for that price class. And looks great

Other BYD cars activate the assistant by saying 'Hey BYD' or a button on the steering wheel and saying 'set temperature to 24 degrees' or 'I'm cold' and temp will increase by 1 degree. This means less distraction trying to use the screen to set the temp. Power usage increased in cruise control when you were driving up a slope.

Another downside we discovered, is the Apple Car Play interface. It didn't work with the USB-C interface. I talked to the seller, and she said that the software in the infotainment might be something that they will update shortly. The seats are actually decent for driving longer distances. We loved the overall space in the cabin, you can easily fit an adult behind me after I adjusted the seat the way I want. The trunk is also big enough for our dog to stay there. This is good value for the money, and we might buy one. Just need to test some of the other cars out there first.

Bjorn, I m going to buy my first EV, according to taxing in Turkey, reasonable options are; torres Evx, byd seal u EV, mini countryman E, tesla model y SR(they are almost same price). Which one you will choose between those cars? I am a father two children...

Isobel in the car is a "real world review" situation. As an EV car reviewer I think you are the first I've ever seen doing this. A lot of eople will like it!

@F_______B 7 ай бұрын

Hi Bjorn! In addition to your EV tests, it's great to follow your family's everyday life. I can relate to most of your daily joys and struggles. Have a 21-month-old son and a 1-month-old daughter + moving into our almost-finished house on a tight budget. Have you considered an extended rear-facing seat for Isabelle? Shame that Cybex does not offer one with proper legroom. There is very little choice with Isofix though. We use Axkid One 2. That one can accommodate kids rear-facing up to 6 years/23kg. It has its ergonomic issues but the rear seating position compensates those. Now that Isabelle is about 2 years old and soon switching seat size, you could do a child seat comparison test with Isabelle's feedback if sponsorship allows it. Thanks for the entertainment!

I was looking forward to this in the UK but BYD are first releasing this as PHEV only and then sending us the Sea Lion (which may be better). I think you did not hear about this as it is an older platform. The original name in China is Song Plus and it was renamed to build on the success of the Seal although it is quite different underneath. See details on the Viking.

@luisfernandes4145 6 ай бұрын

Isabel's voice is fine, but I hear a lot of rumbling from the tyres. You say it's quiet, so it must be the mikes that capture very well the low frequencies.

Maybe in a few years Isabelle can contribute her opinion more actively in the reviews! It would be excellent to get a child's opinion of family cars.
