The vehicles on display in showrooms offer an early look at the production model, but BYD has not yet announced official pricing or confirmed the full specification lineup. The latest information follows our recent coverage of the 2027 Seal 06 EV, including official images showing roof-mounted LiDAR hardware and a 240 kW motor option, as well as earlier regulatory filings indicating a larger body and a stronger electric motor compared with the current generation. Regulatory filings reveal updated dimensions and hardware MIIT regulatory filings list the updated Seal 06 with dimensions of 4,870 mm in length, 1,890 mm in width, and 1,495 mm in height, with a 2,820 mm wheelbase. These figures indicate a larger body than the current-generation Seal 06 EV, while retaining the same wheelbase. Previous regulatory filings showed the next Seal 06 EV with a larger body and an 80 kW motor, stronger than the current model’s. Official images of the 2027 Seal 06 EV showed roof-mounted LiDAR hardware and a reported 240 kW rear motor option. The LiDAR hardware indicates additional driver-assistance equipment, although BYD has not disclosed the final system functions or equipment structure. Chinese media reports have also suggested that BYD’s DiSus-C intelligent damping system may be available on the updated Seal 06, although this has not been confirmed by BYD or regulatory filings. Reported DM-i and EV configurations Regulatory filings and Chinese media reports indicate that the Seal 06 will continue to offer both a DM-i plug-in hybrid and a battery-electric version. The DM-i version is listed with a 74 kW 1.5-litre engine paired with a 175 kW electric motor, along with battery options of 25.287 kWh and 34.275 kWh. Chinese media reports cite expected CLTC pure-electric ranges of 230 km and 320 km, although these figures remain subject to official certification. The EV version is listed with rear-wheel-drive motors rated at 120 kW and 240 kW, paired with second-generation Blade Battery packs measuring 52.868 kWh and 64.315 kWh. Chinese media reports cite corresponding CLTC ranges of 530 km and 630 km. The 240 kW motor option represents an 80 kW increase over the current-generation Seal 06 EV, while the final market lineup will depend on BYD’s official announcement. Dealer pricing points to a 15,000–20,900 USD range Dealer information cited by Chinese media points to a pre-deduction vehicle price range of 105,000-145,000 yuan (15,000–20,900 USD). The figure refers to a dealer pre-deduction mechanism rather than BYD’s official retail price. The final MSRP may differ when the company officially launches the vehicle. The same dealer information indicates that adding LiDAR and the reported “God’s Eye B” driver-assistance upgrade could increase the price by 11,000 yuan (1,600 USD). The dealership arrivals suggest the updated Seal 06 is approaching its official launch in the Chinese market, giving buyers an early look at the model’s expected configurations and pricing range. BYD is expected to disclose final specifications, equipment levels, and pricing at launch. Dealer information suggests a pre-deduction price range for the upcoming BYD Seal 06 sedan.
