Exterior Design

The BYD SEALION 5 DM-i combines striking design with powerful performance. Its wide, confident stance, inspired by BYD’s signature “Dragon Face” design, exudes safety and modern sophistication, making it perfect for everyday family adventures.

Front full-LED headlights, complemented by slim LED daytime lights, provide clear and efficient road illumination. The system automatically adjusts to driving conditions thanks to automatic on/off functionality.

The rear features a full-width LED light strip, sharply styled LED taillights, and an integrated rear spoiler, emphasizing the car’s dynamic and elegant character.

Strong wheel arches and a contrasting-color D-pillar create a floating roof effect, giving the SEALION 5 DM-i a distinctive silhouette. Eye-catching 18-inch two-tone wheels highlight the sporty character while ensuring stability and enhanced road grip.

Interior

The center console stands out with its elegant “floating” design and numerous storage compartments. The touchscreen is within easy reach, allowing the driver to control key vehicle functions while on the move. The gear lever adds a sense of quality and enables precise handling.

The 8.8-inch LCD instrument panel clearly displays essential information such as speed, battery level, and remaining range. The climate control can be adjusted with a three-finger gesture on the 12.8-inch touchscreen, while the multifunction steering wheel allows control of the cruise control and multimedia without taking hands off the wheel.

The SEALION 5 DM-i offers a spacious cabin with plenty of legroom and a flat floor, ensuring comfort for three rear passengers even on longer journeys. Seats are upholstered in durable eco-friendly vegan leather, resistant to wear and dirt. The driver’s seat is heated and electrically adjustable in six directions, while the front passenger seat is heated and adjustable in four directions.

The 463-liter trunk provides ample space for luggage and daily items. Folding the rear seats in a 40:60 split increases capacity to 1410 liters, with a flat floor making it easier to load larger bags and boxes.

Technology

The SEALION 5 DM-i is powered by BYD’s advanced Super Hybrid system with DM technology, combining the experience of driving an electric vehicle with the reliability and range of a hybrid petrol engine.

DM stands for “Dual Mode,” meaning the system operates in two modes: as a hybrid combining electric power and fuel, and as a fully electric vehicle with up to 86 km of electric range, thanks to the Blade battery integrated into the SEALION 5 DM-i.

Intelligent system control, indicated by the “i” in DM-i, optimizes hybrid operation and reduces fuel consumption to just 2.1 L/100 km. With a fully charged battery and a full fuel tank, the SEALION 5 DM-i can achieve a total range of up to 1016 km.

Safety

The BYD SEALION 5 DM-i comes equipped with advanced driver-assistance systems that enhance safety and simplify daily driving. These include adaptive and intelligent cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, intelligent speed limit control, and warnings for lane departure or potential frontal/rear collisions

The vehicle also offers traffic sign recognition, lane departure prevention, automatic emergency braking, and hill-start assist.

Safety is further reinforced with seven airbags (driver, front passenger, center front, front side, and curtain airbags), ISOFIX and i-Size anchors on the outer rear seats and front passenger seat, a mechanical child safety lock, and an automatic vehicle locking system.

Connectivity

Enjoy seamless connectivity with built-in 4G and cloud services via the BYD app. Voice control (“Hi, BYD”) allows safe and easy operation of vehicle functions while driving, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay keep you connected on the move.

The built-in NFC system enables quick, convenient keyless entry, ideal when your hands are full.

The SEALION 5 DM-i also features two-way charging (V2L), turning the car into a versatile power source to charge your devices—perfect for trips, work, or unexpected situations.
