BYD India has introduced the Sealion 7 electric SUV to the Indian market. This e-SUV is available in two trims—Premium and Performance—priced at ₹48.9 lakh and ₹54.9 lakh (ex-showroom), respectively. The Sealion 7 was first showcased at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Expo, with bookings opening on the same day.
Customers can reserve the Sealion 7 either online or by visiting a BYD dealership, with a booking amount of ₹70,000. As part of the launch offer, BYD is providing a 7-year/1.5 lakh km warranty, a complimentary 7 kW home charger for the first 70 buyers, and will match the ₹70,000 booking amount. Deliveries for the first 70 units will begin on March 7.
The SUV is offered in two configurations: Premium and Performance. Both variants come with an 82.56 kWh battery pack. The Premium variant features a single motor with a rear-wheel-drive setup, generating 313 PS and 380 Nm of torque, with a claimed range of 567 km per charge. The Performance variant, equipped with dual motors and all-wheel drive, delivers 530 PS and 630 Nm of torque, offering a claimed range of 542 km per charge.
Built on BYD’s e-platform 3.0, the Sealion 7’s design is inspired by sea lions diving into the water, resulting in a unique five-spoke pattern. The SUV bears a strong resemblance to the BYD Seal sedan, featuring sharp character lines, angular headlamps with L-shaped LED DRLs, large air intakes, and vents. The side profile showcases aerodynamic alloy wheels, flush door handles, and pronounced wheel arch cladding. At the rear, it sports a roof-mounted spoiler, sleek LED taillamps, and an additional lip spoiler on the tailgate. Dimensionally, the Sealion 7 measures 4,830 mm in length, 1,925 mm in width, and 1,620 mm in height, with a rear-end design reminiscent of the Atto 3.
Inside the cabin, the Sealion 7 boasts a 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. Other notable features include electrically adjustable front seats with heating and ventilation, dual-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof, a 12-speaker audio system, a head-up display, and 11 airbags. Additionally, it comes with a 360-degree camera and ADAS functionalities like blind spot detection, forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking.
