The BYD Seal has been one of the most talked-about electric sedans, and for 2025, it gets a handful of key updates aimed at improving comfort, convenience, and driving dynamics.
So, what’s new in the 2025 BYD Seal, and does it make a difference? Let’s break it down.
New features: a more comfortable cabin
The biggest addition for 2025 is the powered sunshade, now standard across all variants. This was previously an optional accessory, but BYD has wisely made it a standard feature. Why does this matter though? The Seal’s panoramic glass roof looked stunning, but it also let in a lot of heat. With the powered sunshade, the cabin stays cooler on long drives under the sun, solving a real-world problem owners faced.
The 2025 model also brings:
- Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto (no more cable hassles!)
- An improved air conditioning & purification system
These upgrades make the Seal more practical for daily use, especially in hot and polluted city environments.
Better ride & handling: suspension tweaks
BYD has made notable changes to the Seal’s suspension setup:
Premium variant → Gains Frequency Selective Dampers (FSD), a feature that was previously exclusive to the top model. This improves ride comfort by adapting the damping force based on road conditions.
Performance variant → Gets DiSus-C suspension system, which dynamically adjusts suspension stiffness based on acceleration, braking, cornering, and road bumps.
What does this mean?
- Smoother ride on bumpy roads
- Better cornering stability
- More controlled handling at high speeds
If you like driving spiritedly, these changes make the Seal feel more planted and confident.
Battery & range: no mechanical changes
The 2025 Seal retains the same Blade Battery setup with:
- 61.44 kWh (Standard Range) → 510 km (ARAI) range
- 82.56 kWh (Long Range & Performance) → 650 km (ARAI) range
The single-motor and dual-motor setups also remain unchanged, so the Seal continues to offer:
- Single motor (RWD) → More range, smooth performance
- Dual motor (AWD, Performance variant) → More power, better traction
No surprises here—just the same efficient and powerful setup.
Bookings & expected price
- Bookings open from March 11 with a ₹1.25 lakh deposit.
- Price announcement in April.
Expect the pricing to remain competitive as BYD tries to maintain its value-for-money edge in the electric sedan space.
Final thoughts
The 2025 BYD Seal doesn’t reinvent the formula, but its updates fix key issues and add useful features that improve comfort and driving experience.
- Sunshade makes the cabin cooler
- Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto for convenience
- Better air purification for cleaner air
- Upgraded suspension for smoother, more stable rides
With these tweaks, the Seal remains one of the most premium electric sedans in its class.
