No choice but also got a Seal here in Bangkok (Tesla doesn’t have insurance on their test cars. Can you believe that?!) But that’s probably a good thing. Tesla is more expensive, offers less as a package AND just beginning to build the charging network here. Has been driving my Seal for almost a week. They have already fixed the ADAS and traffic sign alert here for all new cars. The drive qualities are just amazing! I used to own a Porsche Cayman S and I am proud to say my new Seal is at least 90% as great or in some ways even better!

I'm in Thailand too. Bought the Tesla model 3 dual motor. Had it about 1 year now with 26,414km. Very pleased. I replaced a Mercedes C43 AMG. And also very near in performance and ride quality. I recently test drive the BYD Seal and can concur the similarities and capabilities put the BYD near par if not even with the Tesla. I suspect the Tesla is a bit more advanced? but if so not by much. Last year January I test drove the Tesla model 3 and was not aware the test vehicles were not insured. Bizarre.

Thailand people have made a right decision to adopt EV. With their huge volume of traffic in their city areas, more people using EV would keep their air clean and not heated by the ice car engines and the environment free from engine noise. This is good for the health of the people who live or work in the city areas. And thai people are smart (they have one of the best hospitals in the world), there is no doubt their infrastructure (especially the electrical power and the grid) would keep up with the increase in EV.

3 months with my AWD Performance. We were told to drive in Eco mode for the first 2,000 kms and I quite like it. Sport in the performance is for fun and not relaxation. Did you know that the volume control on the center console if pressed (not press and hold which reboots the screen) in Apple car play takes you to the screen saver with access to air con controls press it again takes you back to car play. 36 degrees C here in Thailand today - what happened to winter? I have not added any window tints and we are happy with how cool the car is - loving the cooled seats and I have tried the heated seats on low with the aircon turned up and it was great for my bad back.

Tom, Credit for being prepared to redo your temperature / heat videos. While I got plenty from what you did already there are some easy options to standardise results. If you buy yourself a multimeter or 2 with thermocouples you will automatically remove reflectivity issues. Airconditioning duct temperature and ambient temperature is best measured this way. With a bit of research you will find economical data recording meters. Infrared is great for surfaces within reason (looking through glass into sky can be variable) and actual thermometers (thermocouples, thermistors) best for fluids including air. Looking forward to the updated video.

Wallbox as one of your promotions has ( I believe) the Quaser 2 which theoretically could provide that capability. That is of course if BYD allow the Seal to discharge as well as charge. 82.5Kw battery what better way to power your house as well. BTW ordered my Seal on the weekend, will take it home to Dubbo, that should be interesting... 😊

Thanks Tom glad you're enjoying it, as an early owner of an Atto the OTA updates kept tweaking things and making improvements. Is there screen lag, had found Atto to be great on home screens and even on Android Auto wireless it was really responsive - ironically the wee lag in the M3 annoys me like when you press the screen to end a phone call and it doesn't seem to end straight away? Also regarding consumption, how are you finding it comparably to the Teslas for the same drive?

Hi Tom, first off thank you for making informative videos of the Seal! Really helpful. Do you sometimes wish/miss the extra power from performance in your day to day / spirited drive since you previously owned a powerful Tesla ? Or do you think the premium has more than sufficient power even for some fun? I’m having a bit of a problem picking the premium/performance model, I have test driven both, in short the premium for me feels just right, performance is a bit too much power but fun ~ borderline dangerous nonetheless 😂 not that I’m complaining though!

HUD light reflected off the windshield is partially polarized, so the polarized sun glasses will filter it out. That’s just how optics work in this case.

Is dynaudio just a gimmick?

Don't buy EVs if you care about resale value. They are great cars but its a very fast moving industry and there are a lot of advancements coming so cheaper and better EVs will be coming soon. For example CATL the world's biggest lithium battery manufacturer says it expects to sell batteries at $60 per kWh or less in mid-2024, that 12 months ago it sold for $125 kWh and majority of the cost of EVs is the battery system.

I am curious as to whether you have problems with your DAB+ radio or not. Mine falls out all the time, almost no matter where I am here in Denmark. I also have a challenge with an annoying pitch sound that comes from the air conditioner - I can clearly hear it, and if you turn off the air conditioner, it goes away completely - It's really frustrating because it keeps me from being genuinely happy with my Seal. It also turned out that the problems I had with the sound during charging are probably due to a defective pump. So it will have to be replaced in the near future.
