BYD has launched another new model in China, the Sea Lion 07, a mid-size SUV. The vehicle is based on the new 3.0 Evo electric platform and is the latest addition to the Ocean series. It comes in four variants and price starts at 189,800 yuan (26,250 US dollars).

Inspired by the Ocean-X concept car, the Sea Lion 07 has a smooth and stylish exterior with headlights similar to the BYD Seal. The car also features retractable door handles and a rear end with continuous taillights, a duck tail spoiler and a roof spoiler. Unlike the BYD Seal, the BYD logo instead of the "Build Your Dreams" is painted on the rear.

The e-Platform 3.0 Evo offers improved powertrain and charging capabilities. Advanced CTB technology reinforces the body and improves safety by reducing cabin intrusion in the event of a collision, while the 12-in-1 intelligent electronic drive system features the world's fastest production engine with a top speed of 225 km/h.

BYD Sea Lion 07 EV, a pure electric SUV, is the first model to be based on the 3.0 Evo electronics platform that competes with Tesla's Model Y.

The Sea Lion 07 is the first BYD vehicle with the DiPilot 100 ADAS system, which offers advanced L2 driver assistance functions. It measures 4830/1925/1620 mm and has a wheelbase of 2930 mm. It offers a 58-litre boot and a 500-litre luggage compartment.

In addition, the model is equipped with DiLink 100, DiPilot 100 driver assistance system and iTAC intelligent torque control system for better handling.
