The model will be available in two trim levels, both offering a generous array of standard features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Trims Available<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Comfort trim, priced from \u00a329,995, comes well-equipped with 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic LED headlights, rear parking sensors, a rear-view camera, and electrically adjustable, folding, and heated door mirrors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Technology is at the heart of the SEALION 5 DM-i. All models feature a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen with Apple CarPlay\u2122, Android Auto\u2122, 4G connectivity, and BYD\u2019s \u201cHi BYD\u201d intelligent voice control. Drivers benefit from an 8.8-inch LCD instrument panel, ensuring all key information is easy to access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside, the cabin blends luxury and practicality. Vegan leather trims the seats and steering wheel, while driver comfort is enhanced with six-way electrically adjustable seats, with four-way adjustment for the front passenger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Design trim, priced at \u00a332,995, offers an even more premium experience with welcome lights, an electric tailgate, front parking sensors, a 360\u00b0 camera system, wireless smartphone charging, and heated front seats. Both trims comfortably seat five passengers and offer generous rear legroom and headroom, alongside a 463-litre boot for family luggage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>BYD Powertrains and Exterior<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Power comes from BYD\u2019s DM-i plug-in hybrid system, producing 212PS. A 1.5-litre petrol engine \u2013 with a class-leading 43% thermal efficiency \u2013 works with the electric motor to deliver the smooth, responsive feel of an electric vehicle while maintaining the versatility of petrol. The Comfort trim accelerates from 0-62mph in 7.7 seconds, while the Design completes the sprint in 8.1 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Battery and efficiency are equally impressive. The Comfort\u2019s 12.96kWh battery offers over 38 miles of pure electric range (WLTP), emits just 62g\/km of CO2, and achieves a combined 104.6mpg. The Design trim\u2019s larger 18.3kWh battery extends the electric range to 53.4 miles, reduces CO2 emissions to 48g\/km, and delivers 134.5mpg. Both models support 3.3kW charging and feature Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology, allowing owners to power appliances such as coffee machines or garden equipment directly from the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exterior styling is available in four colours, with Atlantis Blue standard. Additional options include Obsidian Black, Time Grey, and Polar White at \u00a3850.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>The SEALION 5 strengthens the BYD lineup by offering our most accessible entry point into DM-i plug-in hybrid technology to date. Its combination of meaningful electric-only range, outstanding efficiency, and everyday usability is matched by a starting price that compares favourably against many similarly sized combustion-engine SUVs. Crucially, it also delivers the advanced technology and high specification that customers expect from BYD.<\/em><\/p>\n<cite><strong><em>Steve Beattie, Deputy Country Manager of BYD UK<\/em><\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-icon__arrow-right\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneacre.co.uk\/new-cars\/byd\">Browse BYD at Stoneacre<span class=\"wp-block-button__link-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg viewBox='0 0 16 11' xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'><polygon points='0 4.7 13.1180124 4.7 9.44099379 1 10.4347826 0 16 5.5 10.4347826 11 9.44099379 10 13.1180124 6.3 0 6.3'><\/polygon><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-icon__arrow-right\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stoneacre.co.uk\/dealerships\/byd\">Find Your Nearest BYD Dealership<span class=\"wp-block-button__link-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg viewBox='0 0 16 11' xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'><polygon points='0 4.7 13.1180124 4.7 9.44099379 1 10.4347826 0 16 5.5 10.4347826 11 9.44099379 10 13.1180124 6.3 0 6.3'><\/polygon><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BYD UK today announces the launch of its ninth model in the UK \u2013 the all-new SEALION 5 DM-i.
