BYD Sealion 05 DM-i
AI Overview
If you want a fuel-efficient, well-equipped, and affordable plug-in hybrid SUV, Sea Lion 05 DM-i is worth considering, but the premise is that you can accept its shorter pure electric range and weaker power performance.
- CLTC Pure electric range is 75 km, at a relatively low level among vehicles in the same class (approximately exceeding 7% The opponent).
- equip 12 A camera and 5 A millimeter wave radar, ranking among the top in its class in terms of quantity (with cameras exceeding)96% The opponent's radar surpasses 89% The opponent).
- The minimum fuel consumption at the state of charge is 4.85 L/100 km Excellent performance among peers (exceeding)85% The opponent).

Best for
Users who value intelligent configuration and assisted driving
With a large number of cameras and radars and a good hardware foundation, it may provide richer intelligent driving functions.
Users with short daily commuting distance and household charging stations
Although the pure electric range is short, it meets the needs of short distance commuting, and having charging stations can reduce fuel costs.
Think twice if
Frequently running long distances or highways, with high demands for power
The ability to accelerate at high speeds is average, pure electric range is short, long-distance travel may rely more on fuel, and power performance may not be satisfactory.
No household charging stations, relying on public charging
Not supporting DC fast charging, poor compatibility with public charging stations, and inconvenient energy replenishment.
Strengths and trade-offs
Key strengths
High intelligent hardware configuration
The number of cameras has reached 12 A millimeter wave radar 5 All of them far exceed the average level of their peers.
Low fuel consumption due to power loss
Fuel consumption is only 4.85 L/100 km Better than most models in the same class.
Light and agile start
The characteristics of the motor make it start quickly, and it starts one step faster at traffic lights.
Trade-offs
Pure electric battery life is short
CLTC Pure electric range only 75 km In winter, it may be lower.
The ability to accelerate at high speeds is average
The high-speed acceleration ability is not as good as turbocharged models, and the power reserve is average when fully loaded or uphill.
Does not support DC fast charging
Not supporting DC fast charging, poor compatibility with public charging stations.
