This newcomer will replace the ongoing Seal 07 that entered the domestic market just five months ago. BYD is widely known for a rapidly developing model line, which includes 45 cars domestically (including different model years). However, the automaker is also pushing the speed of introducing the new vehicles to the market. In early March 2026, BYD launched the updated Seal 07 sedan with a Blade 2.0 battery. On August 7, the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) exposed the all-new Seal 07 with a fresh design language and enhanced tech during the homologation process. This model applied for a sales license, getting ready for the upcoming launch. The all-new BYD Seal 07 EV The all-new BYD Seal 07 adopts the design language introduced by the recently launched Seal 08 flagship model. It boasts split headlights with marine-inspired thin LED running lights, a sloped bonnet line, semi-hidden door handles, and a single taillight unit. The car adopts a LiDAR in the roof, suitable for the DiPilot 5.0 assisted driving system capable of the Navigate On Autopilot (NOA) function. Dimensions of the BYD Seal 07 are 5080/1960/1495 mm with a wheelbase of 2,960 mm. It is 85 mm longer and 50 mm wider than the ongoing model. The car’s approach and departure angles are 13 and 15 degrees, respectively. Two wheel options are available: 245/50 R18 and 245/45 R19. This vehicle’s curb weight lies between 1,960 and 2,060 kg, depending on the powertrain. The gross weight is 2,410 – 2,510 kg. The entry-level Seal 07 BEV adopts a single TZ205QYS e-motor with a peak power output of 245 kW (329 hp). The more powerful variant offers a TZ205QYD electric motor for 300 kW (408 hp). The car adopts two FinDreams-made LFP battery options. Their capacity has yet to be revealed. The top speed of the Seal 07 BEV is 240 km/h. The all-new BYD Seal 07 DM-i There is also a PHEV version of the new Seal 07 sedan. It has the BYD472ZQB 1.5-liter turbocharged engine under the hood with a peak power output of 115 kW (154 hp). It is paired with a TZ210XYC electric motor with a peak power output of 160 kW (215 hp). This version can speed up to 190 km/h. It adopts a 38.029 kWh LFP battery pack for 245 km of EV range. The Seal 07 consumes 4.25 liters of fuel per 100 km with a drained battery. The exact data of the sales launch of the all-new Seal 07 has yet to be revealed. However, BYD is clearly determined to introduce this car to the market shortly. Their rush is clearly understandable, as the ongoing Seal 07 sedan turned out to be a flop, delivering 627 units in June domestically, according to China EV DataTracker.
