Drove a Seal myself and had nothing but troubles with its software and non-working features like door handle not working or flushing the windscreen on highway not possible among others. This car is not ready for the road and lacks the reality of its promises.

Here in South Africa, the uptake of Chinese car brands has been significant. We’re just so tired of being charged an arm and a leg from the established brands for decades, particularly the Germans who will charge for something as basic as Bluetooth, or cruise control, etc, etc. I myself come from a history of having owned Opel (Vauxhall), VW, BMW and Audi. Am currently driving a Mazda, but when it’s time to replace it, I can assure you it will be Chinese. Even if you have no intention to buy a Chinese car (or an electric car), their mere presence in your market should ensure that the established brands will finally have to do some real work to keep your custom by improving their equipment levels, revising their pricing, and service levels. The more competition there is, the better for us as consumers.

That's exactly what's been happening in China for the past few years. Nowadays you can get a Mercedes EQE or BMW i3 for half its sticker price (EQE: sticker price - 500k CNY, actual price below 300k; i3: sticker price 400k, actual price around 200k). And even so they aren't selling all that well, which is why BMW has annouce yet more discount in the past few days. There's a popular saying in China recently: even if you don't like Chinese cars, you should support them, because that's how you get cheap foreign cars.

Germans are thinking of 4-day workweek. I guess they will soon need more people to take care of the same amount of work, thus, their products will be ever expensive in the long term. Also the increasing energy cost in Germany won't help in anyway...

A genuine Tesla killer.

The only reason it is over £40K is over £10K of British government taxes. In China the AWD Dual Motor version sells for just under £28,000 equivalent RMB. They have 3 versions in China so this one is the middle version which you can buy in China for literally half the price that it is in the UK with the same quality trim.

Australia here, have the Performance model (aka the Excellence in the UK), absolutely love it. The Design model you have is called the Premium in Australia and there is another lower spec again called the Dynamic. Since getting the Seal, have only started my ICE cars to just tick the mechanicals over, it's just a brilliant car to drive. With the 2401 update, the ADAS has improved a lot (& the TSR is quieter etc) & the upcoming 2403 update will be better again

Great Video but most of the 'niggles' have been fixed by software updates....the speed limit is now shown on the heads up display with no sound if exceeded. Apple car play is now wireless. If you don't want the driver aids turn them off as before...and they stay off. I have the BYD Seal premium and it improves with every software update. It is by far the best car I have driven in 42 years on the road...one thing not mentioned in the video was the V2L feature. Most reviewers mention this as useful when camping but it can supply up to 10 amps at 220v, 50z. I have an ATS on my home 18000 BTU air con switching to the BYD supply between 5pm and 7am using about 8 to 12 kw hrs per night....recharged with solar panels in the morning.

I like your statement in the end, you buy car with your heart, you buy something you love and not something other people love or like. As this is between you and your car. You know what, I believe if the badge was changed from BYD to Tesla, and the screen ui change to Tesla, and the model 3 changed to BYD, a lot of critics will then be saying the seal is better than the model 3. There are people who likes minimalist. But not everyone. If you like minimalist, you probably should go and buy the cheapest car on earth, as they aren’t going to offer anything extra, other than the steering, “gears” and maybe aircon control. Tesla model 3 is a great car, so does BYD.

The 2 big complaints about this car for me is the lack of one pedal driving, and the fact that the brake pedal behaves more like an on/off switch for the brakes, rather than progressive brake pressure based on how much pedal imput you give it. If at least the brake pedal issue is solved, then it'd be excellent in the price range, but as it stands it's pretty good at best.

Love this car vs. its rivals for looks, comfort etc, but at group 48 & 50D it's close to double the price when insuring something like an Ioniq 6, Tesla or EV6, and that's against even the EV6 GT which is still only group 45, costs more, is more powerful and is quicker. I REALLY hope this is just a lack of data thing and gets adjusted in time, because today I can't justify spending twice as much to insure a car at my age (50+)

I agree about the screen a smaller screen would fit in Portrait better like the one in the Polestar 2. Blame TESLA they started the war of the screens and many Chinese brands are way more screens mad than BYD.

Great review of a great car. But why did you not use the wireless carplay. It's a shame the Li auto range doesn't come here full range is great but the Li auto mega in particular would teach the likes of Tesla a thing or to about charging times

Hi Tish, do you think the BYD Seal Design trim is better than the cheaper Tesla Model? I love the Seal more because it has a drivers display and HUD in the £48,000 Excellence AWD version, hopefully Tesla would take some notes down.

Tesla was great but the problem is the charging when it comes to taxi 🚖 sometimes long journeys require a charge and the customer time is ticking however BYD o heard it’s better to charge like 20 minutes 80 percent charge

The only thing I'll commend BYD on is that it's not an SUV. Everything else is 'meh', but then I think the Model 3 is ugly as sin and completly out of proportion from the shoulder up (and the Model Y is an amorphous blob). The elephant in the room here is the residuals. It's still a £46k car, it has a BYD badge, and it will be worth the scrap price in 3 years. The UK aren't even imposing tarrifs on Chinese car imports yet, and it's still expensive. What's clear is that even with the massive subsidies the Chinese get in their own country means they still sell most cars at a loss, and now what they dump cars into Europe that are sold at massively inflated prices to try and recover some of those losses. Anything BYD is *not* an investment.

Elon really needs to up his game in the design department because otherwise all these Chinese EV upstarts will seriously start to impact on the sales of Tesla.
