BYD SEALION 8 Premium AWD
Vehicle Overview
The BYD SEALION 8 Premium AWD is a large plug-in hybrid SUV configured to combine a turbocharged petrol engine with BYD's electric powertrain and Blade Battery technology. Its all-wheel-drive layout gives this flagship variant a broader range of capability than the front-wheel-drive model, while the 35.6kWh battery forms the core of its plug-in hybrid system.
With maximum system output listed at 359kW and peak torque of 675Nm, the Premium AWD is positioned as the performance-oriented member of the SEALION 8 range. The stated 0-100km/h time is 4.9 seconds, giving the vehicle strong acceleration potential while retaining the flexibility of a hybrid drivetrain. Intelligent decoupling electric four-wheel drive is specified, along with DiSus-C intelligent damping suspension and dedicated mud and sand drive modes.
The selected exterior specification pairs Aurora White paint with 21-inch alloy wheels and Goodyear 265/45 R21 tyres. Perforated brake discs and fixed calipers at the front and rear complement the larger-wheel configuration. Together, these elements give the SEALION 8 a purposeful road presence without relying on optional paint or wheel upgrades in this build.
Inside, the Premium AWD is trimmed in black leather upholstery and focuses heavily on seating comfort. The driver's seat has eight-way power adjustment, while the front seats add massage functions, four-way power lumbar adjustment and power-adjustable leg rests. Outboard second-row passengers also receive massaging, heated and ventilated seats, extending the comfort emphasis beyond the front cabin. A heated steering wheel and mirror memory add further convenience to the driving position.
The cabin's technology specification includes a head-up display, a 21-speaker DiSound sound system and multi-colour ambient lighting, with footwell illumination providing additional interior detail. These features are designed to make long journeys more relaxed and to keep key information and controls accessible without unnecessarily distracting the driver.
