  • The 2025 BYD Sealion 7 is equipped with frequency-selective damping, making the ride firm at low speeds but smoother at higher speeds.
  • There are two levels of regenerative braking: Standard (mild deceleration) and High (stronger energy recovery). However, it doesn’t support full one-pedal driving.
  • It offers three drive modes: Normal, Eco, and Sport. The iTAC (Intelligent Torque Adaptation Control) system distributes power between wheels for better stability and cornering.

Exterior Design

The 2025 BYD Sealion 7 has a sleek and aerodynamic exterior design, blending sportiness with elegance. It follows BYD’s “Ocean Aesthetics” design philosophy, giving it a futuristic and premium look.

  • Front Fascia: Features a smooth, closed-off panel typical of EVs, with sharp LED headlights and a thin light bar stretching across the front for a high-tech feel.
  • Side Profile: A sloping roofline gives it a coupe-SUV style, with flush door handles and aerodynamically shaped side mirrors reducing drag.
  • Wheels: Comes with large, aero-efficient 19 or 20-inch alloy wheels, enhancing performance and efficiency.
  • Rear Design: Features full-width LED taillights, a sculpted tailgate, and a subtle roof spoiler, adding to its sporty appeal.
  • Aerodynamics: The low drag coefficient and active air vents optimize efficiency, improving range and stability.
