New BYD Seal 6 DM i for Sale

BYD Seal Overview

The BYD Seal 6 DM-i is a plug-in hybrid fastback that uses BYD's fifth-generation DM-i hybrid system to combine electric running for daily use with petrol engine capability for longer trips. 

It offers a practical five-seat interior in a car that looks sharper than its crossover positioning suggests. For buyers who want a spacious, efficient PHEV that works as well in town as it does on the motorway, the Seal 6 DM-i is worth serious consideration. 

Here at EMG Motor Group (now part of Grainger Motor Group), we stock the Seal 6 DM-i at our showrooms across Hertfordshire and East Anglia.

Why Choose the BYD Seal 6 DM-i?

The Seal 6 DM-i occupies an interesting position in the market: it's not a pure SUV, and it's not a traditional saloon either. It's a practical five-door with a sloping roofline and a powertrain that prioritises efficiency.

Powertrain and Performance

The Seal 6 DM-i uses BYD's DM-i fifth-generation hybrid system, pairing a 1.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor and an 18.3kWh Blade Battery. Total system output is 218hp, with 0 to 62mph in 8.5 seconds. 

The system defaults to electric running wherever possible, switching to petrol or a combined mode as conditions demand. Total combined range exceeds 800 miles.

Charging

The Seal 6 DM-i charges at up to 7.4kW AC, allowing a full charge from a home wallbox in approximately 2.5 hours. Standard three-pin charging is also supported. DC rapid charging is not available on PHEV models.

Dimensions and Practicality

The Seal 6 DM-i measures 4,840mm in length, making it a sizeable five-door with a practical boot and five genuine adult seats. The sloping roofline affects rear headroom slightly compared to a full SUV, but legroom is generous throughout.

Technology and Cabin Features

The Seal 6 DM-i shares much of its technology architecture with the broader Seal range, including a large rotating touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a fully digital instrument cluster. 

Premium materials and ambient lighting feature throughout. OTA software updates are included as standard. Here’s what you can expect: 

• 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Digital instrument cluster
• Head-up display
• Wireless smartphone charging
• Ambient interior lighting
• NFC keyless entry
• Over-the-Air software updates

Driver Safety

Standard safety equipment includes autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control with lane centring, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a 360-degree camera system.
