With the global unveiling of five fresh models under its Ocean Series banner, BYD has thrown down the gauntlet.
The important model of the bunch is the BYD Ocean-S Concept. It’s a glimpse into BYD’s future design direction: long, elegant lines, fluidic curves, and a futuristic front fascia.
The interior is a wraparound cocoon of innovation, with seats that echo sea creatures, ambient lighting reminiscent of oceanic bioluminescence.
Moving into deeper waters, the SEALION 06 swims into view as a mid-size SUV with big ambitions. It comes in two flavours, the DM-i (hybrid) and EV (fully electric), and both are built on BYD’s latest e-Platform 3.0 Evo and fifth-generation DM technology.
Then comes the SEAL 06 EV, a pure electric mid-size sedan designed for younger, tech-savvy drivers who want both brains and beauty. Built atop the same e-Platform 3.0 Evo, this one packs the latest DiPilot 100 and DiSus-C systems for a drive that’s both intelligent and intuitive.
For those who crave flexibility, the SEAL 06 DM-i Travel Edition offers the best of both worlds. It’s the world’s first super-hybrid wagon, combining sedan agility with SUV utility.
You get the long-distance prowess of BYD’s fifth-gen DM system, paired with a body style that actually makes sense for families, adventurers, and anyone who doesn’t want to compromise on either boot space or fuel economy. This one’s very nice.
Beyond the new debuts, BYD brought along a few returning champions. The D9 MPV remains a sales juggernaut in China; over 300,000 units moved and counting. The refreshed 2025 N7, now decked out with a carbon-fibre styling package, is gunning for the younger premium crowd.
Expect to see these models sometime in the near future on our roads.
