BYD will officially launch the Sealion 06 EV and Sealion 06 DM-i in China on July 24. Previously, the price range was announced at 160,000 – 200,000 yuan (approximately 720,000 – 901,000 baht) at the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show.
The EV version is developed on BYD’s e-Platform 3.0 Evo, while the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version uses BYD’s 5th-generation DM-i technology.
Both versions use the latest design language from BYD’s Ocean Series, featuring a closed front grille, parallel headlights, dual lower air intakes, wave-style taillights, and semi-hidden door handles. The entire series is expected to come with the advanced driving assistance system God’s Eye C (DiPilot 100), which currently supports only NOA (Navigate on Autopilot) for highways.
The plug-in hybrid version comes with a 1.5-liter engine producing a maximum output of 74 kW (99 hp), paired with an electric motor producing 160 kW (215 hp). It uses a Blade Battery with a capacity of 18.3 kWh or 26.6 kWh, offering a pure electric driving range of 93 km and 130 km, respectively.
The all-electric version comes in both single-motor and dual-motor variants, with the following details:
