The shape of the side of the car body presents a dive posture, with sharp lines and hidden door handles. The 235/45 R19 Jiatong tires are used in the exhibition car, which are matched with black petal-shaped rims and red brake calipers. The overall style is quite sporty.
The tail has a good sense of layering, and the penetrating LED taillights can also have good recognition after lighting, so that people can know that it is BYD’s model at a glance. Under it, a large-area diffuser shape and vent design are also adopted, and the sporty style is very remarkable.
In terms of interior, BYD’s family design style is still maintained, which is very close to the interior layout of Seal 06, and two interior colors of shell white and twilight blue are available. The central control area adopts a combination of 10.25-inch full LCD instrument, 15.6-inch adaptive rotating suspension screen and 12-inch W-HUD head-up display.

Bucket seats are used in the front seats, and the overall wrapping and support are good.

The riding experience of the rear seats is quite satisfactory, and there is only one finger left in the head space, and the leg space is acceptable, and there is still room for two punches.

★ Edit comment:
In the era of SUV prevalence, the selectivity of hatchback cars is not much. However, a sporty and handsome hatchback will still be favored by young people. Seal 06GT not only shows its sporty characteristics, but also inherits the concept of BYD’s new energy. There are also many power versions available for a pure electric vehicle. Do you think it is appropriate to set a blind price of 150,000-200,000 yuan? (Text/Figure car home Wang Liang; Photo/car home Chengdu Auto Show Reporting Group)
