Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives
BYD Sealion 7
  • Looks like a luxury car and offers a great road presence
  • Rich interior quality that feels as good as or even better than some luxury cars
  • Loaded with features: 15.6-inch touchscreen, powered front seats, ADAS, 11 airbags and much more
  • Smooth and fast to drive
  • Offers sports car performance with a family car’s ease of use
Kia EV6
  • Improved Charging Times: 0 to 80 percent in 18 minutes (with a 350 kW DC Charger).
  • Now features a bigger battery pack, boasting a 663 km (MIDC-ARAI) range, which would translate to a real-world range of more than 500 km.
  • It offers a robust safety package and is equipped with 8 airbags, ABS, EBD, TCS along with the level 2 ADAS which has features like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA), Lane Keep Assist (LKA) and more.
  • The premium EV is loaded to the brim with features such as Vehicle-To-Load (V2L), twin 12.3-inch integrated displays, a 14-speaker Meridian audio system, a heads-up display, a 360-degree camera, and Level 2 ADAS.
  • Offers quick acceleration with a 0 to 100 kmph sprint in just 5.3 seconds.
BYD Sealion 7
  • Doesn’t have the brand value that some may want at this price
  • Ride comfort could have been better over bad roads
Kia EV6
  • It is equipped with a single-pane sunroof, whereas the competition offers fixed or openable panoramic sunroof.
  • The raised floor design creates a seating position where both front and rear occupants experience a ‘knees-up’ posture, which might impact comfort over long journeys.
  • Being a completely built unit (CBU), it carries a steep price tag, making competitors such as the BYD Sealion 7 and BMW iX1 LWB far more budget-friendly alternatives.
  • The cabin, while well-equipped, does not quite exude the same level of luxury and refinement found in German rivals within the same price bracket.
