As a "new" player in the pure electric mini-car market, BYD Seagull's sales in May reached 14,300 units, and it showed its impressive strength as soon as it appeared on the stage. In the past, in this market segment, Wuling Hongguang MINI EV basically had no rivals, but now the arrival of Seagull means that BYD has officially entered the market, and it also means that consumers have better choices.
[beautiful shape, full function]
In terms of appearance design, Seagull is built based on the design concept of "ocean aesthetics". The overall feeling of the body is "milk fierce milk fierce", which can not only please female consumers, but also not make male consumers feel too "sissy", so BYD has a good grasp of this degree .
In other details, the dynamic waistline of "Seagull Wings", the front and rear bumpers of "Sweeping Wind Wings", the "Ice Crystal Frost" C-pillar decoration and the through-type full LED taillights, all take care of young people Fashion sense needed.
In terms of interior, the enveloping cockpit has a first-class sense of space, continuing the main design line of "fun, interesting, and individual". The air outlet of the air conditioner has a distinct "cyberpunk" color, and the "small and beautiful" seagull looks full of vitality. The Seagull is also equipped with a 10.1-inch adaptive rotating floating Pad screen as standard, and is equipped with the DiLink intelligent network connection system. In addition, the Seagull can achieve 3.3kW of external discharge. Some people may feel that the central control screen is a bit small, so I really want to speak out. At this price point, this screen is really not small, even larger than the screens on many joint venture cars, not to mention the rich functions. degree. All new cars are equipped with reversing camera, parking radar, cruise control, driving mode switching, automatic parking, remote start, external discharge, satellite navigation, voice recognition control, OTA upgrade and other configurations.
In terms of size, the Seagull has a body size of 3780×1715×1540mm, a wheelbase of 2500mm, and an axle length ratio of up to 66.1%. It can be said that the sea-gull has achieved a comfortable space comparable to that of an A-class car with an A0-class wheelbase on the A00-class body. Therefore, although the seagull is small in size, its capacity is not small. Especially the feeling of riding in the rear is actually not bad, and it doesn't feel cramped.
[Enough power, fast charging]
In terms of power, BYD Seagull is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous front motor with a maximum power of 55kW (75Ps) and a maximum torque of 135N m. The motor is matched with a single-speed gearbox with a fixed gear ratio. This kind of power is completely sufficient for models that focus on urban transportation.
During the simple test drive, the actual performance of Seagull is quite mature. The accelerator is light and the speed is increased quite quickly. Even if the speed exceeds 80km/h, it can give the driver enough confidence to easily complete operations such as merging and overtaking. And the seagull also has sufficient power when climbing.
In a traffic jam, release the brake pedal, Seagull has a similar idling experience to fuel vehicles. For friends who are new to electric vehicles, there is no need to worry about getting used to it.
In addition, it is worth mentioning the texture of the Seagull's chassis. The excellent integrity will give us greater confidence at high speeds and when cornering.
In terms of charging, Seagull supports fast charging and slow charging. It only takes half an hour for fast charging to charge from 30% to 80%. For the 405km version, charging for half an hour can increase the cruising range by more than 200 kilometers. There is no mileage anxiety in urban travel.
Seagull also provides three driving modes, two levels of energy feedback intensity, and two levels of brake pedal adjustment, so you can find your most suitable driving rhythm whether you are roaming in the city or outdoors.

Based on the e-platform 3.0, and equipped with BYD's three-in-one motor and blade battery, the sea-gull is backed by BYD's strong brand endorsement. It can be said that it is not surprising that it has become a hot-selling model.
The more important significance of Seagull is that it proves to us that the pure electric scooter is not just "able to walk enough", it can completely have a more comfortable driving experience and a high degree of safety guarantee.
