BYD Sealion 05 teased as possible successor to popular Atto 3

[@robertcudlipp3426]

Until there are far more public charging stations, as much as would like pure EV, as I can't charge in our apartment complex, no choice but for a PHEV.

I'm definitely keen for a wagon. SUVs aren't my style, but I'd probably buy something up to the equivalent size of a Subaru Forester. I definitely love the Seal design. I'm very tempting to buy one but sadly reminded it'll never fit in the garage. My 2019 Corolla is a tight fit. Will probably get the 2025 Seal once i move and my daughter takes my current car.

people buying BEV or PHEV shouldn't be judged as it's their money, their call.... we can only congratulate on their purchases... SL05 no more guitar strings and funky interior designs...

I want to know if the larger than Sealion 6 SUV model is coming to Australia

[@darkman19693]

I have been thinking the same thing.. Maybe a Shark 6 in a SUV format? That would be an SUV that is somewhere between a Nissan Pathfinder and Patrol in size. Would be a winner for me.

[@23DuDe]

@@darkman19693 besides BYD, there are other Chinese manufacturers who build larger than Sealion eSUVs, whether they come to Australia or not is another thing. One that is coming is the Xpeng G9 7-seater SUV. It could be the one. GWM has a couple up its sleeve too, but they don't look as though they will make it here in 2025.

[@philjol1]

It's already on sale here.

Would love more Lift backs like the Tesla Model S.... Wish Model 3 was lift back

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah absolutely! Love my Model S

[@johnt4939]

Personal preferences are a good thing. But when you are an older person, a higher seat is so much easier to get into and exit. Just saying. There's just no way I could now get into my first car, mini 850. 😅

[@LudicrousFeed]

That’s fair enough! I can definitely see the benefits of a higher seat!

[@Aussie_Stu76]

Sealion 7 first. Cant see this being here here in 2025. Obviously it will be blade 2 tech.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Hopefully Blade 2

[@nurbsenvi]

BYD sucks at design. MG’s design is better and Nio is even better.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Meh to each their own. I like the way the Seal looks personally

[@martiruda]

IKR. MG4 is art. but a smart dude would put battery tech on top of design

[@sop1311]

better than the Cyberstuck issues like snow snuck in front of the headlights
