Result
BYD SEALION 7
Home-heavy charging mix
Blended electricity price 0.24 per kWh
7.4 L/100 km at 1.25 per litre
Positive means the EV is cheaper to run on energy.
Directional view before insurance, finance, and resale.
Buyer take: BYD SEALION 7 stays cheaper to run on energy than a 7.4 L/100 km ICE under these inputs.
This scenario benefits from relatively predictable home or workplace charging, which is where EV cost advantage usually becomes clearer.
Selected EV profile
BYD SEALION 7 Excellence AWD
Best for buyers who want a spacious AWD EV SUV with modern charging hardware and do not need legacy-brand reassurance.
What this includes
Energy costs only, kept deliberately simple.
- EV usage is estimated from battery size, quoted range, and a real-world buffer.
- Charging cost is blended from your home or work share and your public-charging share.
- ICE cost uses litres per 100 km so the same model works globally.
- Purchase price, maintenance, insurance, and depreciation are outside this estimate.
