Used BYD Sealion 7 for sale

Every BYD Sealion 7 has a suite of active safety features including traffic-sign recognition, forward and rear-collision warning, front and rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning and blind-spot detection. The Sealion 7 has achieved a full five-star Euro NCAP rating, making it a very reassuring choice for families and everyday use.

The BYD Sealion 7 is fully electric. There are two main set-ups: a single-motor rear-wheel drive version (308bhp), and a dual-motor all-wheel drive version (523bhp). Both come with a usable 82.5kWh battery, while the top Excellence trim boosts this to a 91.3kWh unit, offering a little more range.

All BYD Sealion 7 models feature a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. There’s also a crisp 12-speaker Dynaudio sound system, a digital driver display, 360-degree camera and dual-zone climate control. Higher-spec versions add features like a head-up display and real Napa leather.

As a pure electric SUV, the Sealion 7’s range varies by version. The entry Comfort model can deliver up to 299 miles per charge, while the larger-battery Excellence aims for 311 miles. Real-world figures will be a bit lower – similar to rivals like the Tesla Model Y.

Check for software updates, charging history and battery health info displayed in the system, as well as the condition of charge cables. Look for interior scuffs and working electronic features. As always, consider The AA Vehicle Inspection for added peace of mind.

While it is still early days for the BYD Sealion 7's UK reliability data, the model offers a robust six-year warranty on most components and eight years on its battery. Early feedback shows good build quality and solid materials throughout, but the brand’s long-term reputation will be clearer as more cars rack up miles.
