Cons
What to watch before you buy
The 650 km certified figure comes from the official India-market NEDC combined cycle, so it should not be read as a like-for-like WLTP number.
Its sedan body style and low seating position make it a sharper choice for buyers prioritising range and highway comfort over SUV seating.

India sedan buyers choosing between the entry Seal hardware and the bigger-battery long-range Premium trim.Reviewed 2026-05-15
BYD Seal Dynamic vs BYD Seal Premium (India)
Both Seals bring BYD's low-slung premium-sedan feel, but the ownership brief changes with battery and charging: the Dynamic keeps the price lower with a 61.44 kWh pack and 110 kW DC hardware, while the Premium Extended Range adds the 82.56 kWh battery and faster 150 kW charging for buyers who want more headroom on heavier highway days.
Verdict: Choose the Dynamic if budget discipline matters most and your driving is mostly city-plus-commute. Choose the Premium Extended Range if you want the calmest long-range ownership brief and faster DC recovery on road trips.
