BYD Seal U Specs, Engines & Dimensions (from 2023) — First Generation
The first-generation BYD Seal U is a five-door SUV with electric and plug-in hybrid powertrains. Automatic transmissions and a mix of front- or all-wheel drive suit everyday family use.
A BYD Seal U engine choice is about how you want to drive. The AT example is fully electric, with an automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. Plug-in hybrids such as 1.5 AT 18.3 kWh (front-wheel drive) and 1.5 DM-i AT (all-wheel drive) add a 1.5-litre petrol unit.
SUV 5-doors — BYD Seal U Engines and Transmissions
BYD Seal U trim levels sit on a technical version rather than replacing it. On the 1.5 AT 18.3 kWh plug-in hybrid with front-wheel drive, Boost is one named equipment configuration. Cabin features can still vary by market even when the powertrain stays the same.
BYD Seal U battery capacity depends on whether you pick full electric or plug-in hybrid. The AT all-wheel-drive electric SUV uses a lithium-ion pack for daily range without petrol. The 1.5 AT 18.3 kWh front-drive hybrid also uses lithium-ion, so short trips can stay electric.
