❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Is the battery really safe?
Yes. BYD’s patented Blade Battery passes the nail penetration test – it does not catch fire or explode. It’s one of the safest EV batteries on the market.
2. Can I charge at home without a garage?
Absolutely. You can install a charging box on an outside wall, use a driveway, or even charge from a standard wall outlet (slower, but works). Many customers also use public chargers at supermarkets or work.
3. How much does it cost to charge?
At home (€0.15/kWh), a full charge costs about €12 – giving you 500km. That’s €2.40 per 100km. A petrol SUV costs about €12 per 100km. You save roughly 80% on fuel.
4. What about winter range?
All EVs lose some range in cold weather. The Sealion 7’s heat pump minimizes loss – expect 10‑15% less on very cold days. For most families, that’s still over 420km, more than enough for daily needs.
5. Can I try it before buying?
Yes. We offer a standard 30‑minute test drive at any BYD Experience Centre. Even better: request our 48‑hour Family Weekend Test Drive to use it like your own car – school runs, groceries, a short trip.
6. What is the warranty?
Vehicle: 5 years / 100,000 km. Battery: 8 years / 160,000 km. Roadside assistance: 5 years.
