Powering the Seal 5 is BYD’s Super DM-i system. For 2026, it consists of a 1.5L four-cylinder engine acting as a generator that powers a 7.42 kWh lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) battery and an electric motor that drives the front wheels and makes 163 PS with 210 Nm of torque. On battery power alone, BYD claims the sedan can cover up to 55 km, based on the NEDC standard. But with the help of a full 65-liter tank of fuel, BYD says its combined system range is rated at 1,600 km.
