Bigger New Second-Generation BYD Seal 07 Sedan Revealed in China
The redesign adopts BYD’s Ocean Aesthetics 2.0 styling and adds PHEV and BEV options as Seal 07 deliveries totaled 1,005 units in August, China EV DataTracker said.
BYD officially unveiled the second-generation Seal 07 in China, arriving just six months after the original electric sedan's launch, with the new model available in both plug-in hybrid and battery-electric configurations.
Rapid replacement of the first-generation Seal 07 may stem from weak demand, as the existing sedan recorded just 1,005 sales in China during August 2026.
Adopting the "Ocean Aesthetics 2.0" design philosophy, the second-generation Seal 07 measures 5080mm long and 1960mm wide on a 2960mm wheelbase, featuring a roof-mounted LiDAR and split headlights aligned with the larger Seal 08.
Performance specifications for the new Seal 07 EV include a rear-mounted 300kW motor and up to 718km of WLTP range, while the PHEV variant pairs a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine with a 160kW electric motor and 38.029kWh battery.
Australia may receive the Seal 07 alongside the Seal 6 and Sealion 7, though BYD has not confirmed local availability; the company typically drops the zero from model names for export markets.
Seal 07 has become a fundamental piece for BYD’s interests. It will be offered in two different mechanics, a powerful electric and an extended range electric.
Finer, the fires of the future BYD are closer to those of the premium brand of the same group, Denza. The second generation Seal 7 makes it the inauguration.
