Description
Here’s a refined look at the BYD?SEALION?7 — Design trim, showcasing its stunning Ocean Series aesthetic under the creative direction of Wolfgang Egger:
Exterior Styling
The signature “OCEAN?X” face features a bold X?shaped motif across the front bumper, framing the slim, dual U?shaped floating headlights and evoking forward motion and elegance
Sculpted curves mimic ocean waves, emphasised by a tapered bonnet, dual waistline, and streamlined fastback silhouette flowing into a subtle ducktail spoiler
Flush-mounted door handles help reduce drag, while the rear sports a full-width light bar with dynamic “water?drop” LEDs that reinforce the aquatic inspiration
The Design Trim Differentiators
Builds on the Comfort trim with 20?inch bi?colour alloy wheels and upgraded all-wheel drive for enhanced traction and presence
EV Database
Interior Architecture & Feel
The cabin draws on sailboat dynamics—floating dashboards, soft contours, and a sense of flow—to deliver a serene, ocean-inspired interior environment
BYD
At the heart is a 15.6?inch rotating touchscreen (portrait or landscape), paired with a 10.25?inch digital driver display, supporting Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
Comfort is elevated with quilted vegan or optional Nappa leather seats, multi?colour ambient lighting (up to 128 colours), and a panoramic sunroof that brings in light and openness
An immersive 12?speaker Dynaudio sound system, wireless charging pad, and voice controls complete the upscale tech ambience
Supporting Technology & Build
Built on BYD’s e?Platform?3.0 with the Blade Battery integrated directly into the chassis (CTB) for enhanced structural rigidity, safety, and interior space
The AWD version features iTAC torque control, double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension with frequency-sensitive dampers for a balanced ride and handling feel
