The BYD Seal (also known globally as Atto 4) is a fully electric sedan. It sits in the mid-size EV segment with a traditional four-door body and seating for five. It uses BYD’s modern e-platform and Blade battery technology.
Battery options include a 61.4 kWh pack for base models and an 82.5–82 kWh pack for long-range versions. The larger battery version delivers roughly 570 to 570+ km WLTP/NEDC-aligned range on a full charge. DC fast charging supports up to 150 kW, reaching approximately 30–80 percent in about 25-35 minutes. AC home charging is typically around 11 kW.
Price varies by market. In some regions the Seal is priced from around $49,000 USD for base variants to over $60,000 USD for higher trims. It suits buyers seeking a mid-size EV sedan with balanced range, performance, and tech at a competitive price. Two alternatives are the Tesla Model 3 and Hyundai Ioniq 6. In direct comparison with the Model 3, the Seal typically offers lower starting price with similar range figures but less developed charging network
