BYD

One BYD is held in this database, on the same sourced specification set as every other car. It is the BYD Seal AWD Excellence. Observed real-world range is 445 km. Real-world efficiency is 185 Wh per km (ranked against every car here). A measured 10 to 80 per cent charge takes 36 minutes (how that compares). Every figure below names its source and the date it was read; the assumptions behind the cost arithmetic are on the methodology page. It runs an 800 V pack, which is what lets a car use a 350 kW station at all. Cells are LFP (what that changes). Charging, which is where most of the difference between two electric cars actually shows up: it peaks at 150 kW on a DC charger and takes 36 minutes from 10 to 80 per cent; the onboard charger is 11 kW, which is what decides an overnight fill. Energy use is 185 Wh/km on WLTP — the number that turns battery size into range, and the one that decides your electricity bill. What that costs where you live is worked out in the running-cost calculator rather than assumed here. We do not yet hold a US list price, an NHTSA overall rating or the battery warranty terms for this car, and those rows stay blank on the car page rather than being estimated. The full sourced specification is on the BYD Seal AWD Excellence page.
