BYD Cars Philippines, in partnership with ACMobility, proudly introduces the new BYD Seal Advanced. The new Rear-Wheel Drive variant of BYD’s flagship performance sedan brings technology, luxury, style, and safety to a more attainable price point. Designed to deliver a dynamic driving experience, the BYD Seal Advanced is tailored to meet the needs of customers seeking a refined yet dynamic electric driving experience.
“The BYD Seal Advanced is designed for drivers who prioritize efficiency, safety, and advanced technology. With its impressive range, extreme comfort, and extensive ADAS features, the Seal Advanced promises a safe and reliable everyday driving experience. This is the perfect choice for today’s electric vehicle owner who wants to experience the pinnacle of BYD design and technology,” said Bob Palanca, Managing Director of BYD Cars Philippines.
Powerful Performance and Convenient Charging
The BYD Seal Advanced marks a significant step forward in BYD’s dedication to delivering accessible and efficient electric mobility to the Philippine market. Distinguished from the BYD Seal Performance by its 18-inch alloy wheels, the new variant is powered by a 61.4 kWh Blade Battery that delivers a driving range of 510 kilometers (NEDC). The BYD Seal Advanced is built with advanced Cell-to-Body technology, seamlessly integrating the Blade Battery into the vehicle’s body. This integration increases torsional rigidity, enhancing safety while also reducing weight to improve overall performance.
It features a rear-wheel drive configuration with a rear-mounted 203 PS Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor that generates 310 Nm of torque. This impressive power output enables the electric sedan to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.5 seconds, providing a dynamic yet refined driving experience.
Additionally, the BYD Seal Advanced is equipped with cutting-edge charging capabilities that cater to the needs of today’s drivers. With a 110 kW DC fast-charging rate, it can recharge from 30% to 80% in 30 minutes, saving time over long journeys. Its 7kW AC charging system ensures a full charge from 0% to 100% in approximately 12 hours for routine use, making it ideal for overnight charging at home. These flexible charging options provide an extended range and daily practicality for an electric-powered lifestyle.
“Expanding the BYD Seal lineup with the Advanced variant allows us to reach a broader segment of the Philippine electric vehicle sedan market. This new addition reflects our ongoing commitment to offering a diverse range of electric vehicles that cater to the needs of more Filipino drivers as we continue to expand BYD’s presence in the country,” said Aiffy Liu, Country Head of BYD Philippines.
Uncompromising Safety and Modern Comfort
Like the BYD Seal Performance introduced in October, the new BYD Seal Advanced features a 10.25-inch LCD instrument cluster and a state-of-the-art 15.6-inch intelligent rotating touchscreen, ensuring seamless connectivity with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The Seal Advanced’s cabin is thoughtfully crafted for class and comfort. A full-leather interior with suede inserts, similar to the Seal Performance, line the interiors. It has a 10-speaker sound system, wireless charging, keyless entry with Near-Field Communication (NFC), Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control, and an 8-way power driver’s seat paired with a 6-way power passenger seat to enhance the driving experience.
In addition to its stylish design, the Seal Advanced prioritizes safety with its Di-Pilot Advanced Driver-Assistance System. The comprehensive active safety suite includes Stop-and-Go Full-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control, Intelligent Speed Limit Control, Predictive Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking System, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Change Assist, Front and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and Braking, Traffic Sign Recognition, Blind Spot Detection, a 360-degree View Camera with See-Through Mode, and six radar sensors.
Eight airbags, a Traction Control System, Electronic Stability Control, ABS, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, and an Electronic Anti-Theft System ensure optimal protection and confidence for every journey.
The new BYD Seal Advanced is priced at PHP 1,998,000 and comes with an 8-year or 160,000-km for the BYD Blade Battery, an 8-year or 150,000-km drive unit warranty, and a 6-year or 150,000-km vehicle warranty.
