BYD Sealion 7 Features: Futuristic Design and Luxe Interiors

The coupe-like profile and aerodynamic features of the BYD Sealion 7 is a sight to behold, tracing its lines from every angle – gloss-black nose, full-width LED light bar, flush door handles and sophisticated C-shaped DRLs which scream sophistication. A cranked up diffuser, big sporty spoiler and fat 20-inch aero style alloys fill up the bulk of what is required for it to look sporty and glide on Indian roads. Inside, the cabin exudes minimalism with a dual-tone dashboard, flat-bottom steering wheel equipped with haptic touchpads, and a crystal gearshift lever for that premium touch.

Tech heads will swoon for the 15.6-inch rotating touchscreen infotainment system combined with a 10.25-inch driver’s digital display and AC controls that are not only responsive, but intuitive to use. Convenience is king, too, with ventilated front seats providing memory, lumbar and height adjust; a generous rear bench that can recline plus boast flat flooring for added room; while an electric blind stretches across the panoramic sunroof. 

Practicality shines through 500-litre boot space (expandable via 60:40 folding seats), a 50-litre frunk, and V2L (Vehicle-to-Load) capability for powering external devices. Features like 99.99% HEPA air filtration and recycled material eco-leather upholstery also help make it an attractive EV for families.

Safety is top priority with 11 airbags, a bird’s-eye view camera, ABS with EBD, TCS, hill-hold assist and comprehensive ADAS suite including adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping aid – which should see the Staria achieve a five-star rating.
