BYD sedan, SEAL 06 EV..The Emergence of a New Concept of Electric Vehicles

The biggest difference from the previously released electric sedan is that it does not apply a large-capacity battery pack to the SEAL06 EV. The battery capacity of the seal flagship trim, which is scheduled to be released in Korea, reaches 82.5 kWh. For the Hyundai Ioniq 6, it will have an 84kWh battery via facelift.
For the seal 06 EV, the base model applied a small battery pack of 46.08 kWh.This is slightly larger than the 45kWh battery offered on the BYD compact hatchback electric vehicle dolphin. The upper trim of the SEAL 06 EV is covered by a larger 56.6 kWh battery pack, which is still a small capacity compared to competitors.
How far can I go with a small 46kWh battery? According to BYD, it is possible to drive 470 kilometers based on CLTC on a single charge. The flagship model is equipped with a 56.6kWh battery pack, and the driving distance per charge is 545km based on CLTC. It is a number that overturns the existing common sense of applying large-capacity battery packs to increase mileage.
The advantage of small battery packs is that they can reduce their relatively heavy weight, which is one of the disadvantages of electric vehicles. The weight of the pack is only 350kg and 410kg, respectively, so the vehicle weighs between 1,670 and 1,800kg.The weight itself is not small, but it is lightweight with an electric sedan of the same size.
The vehicle body size of the seal 06 EV is 4,720 mm in full length, 1,880 mm in width, 1,495 mm in height, and 2,820 mm in wheel base. It is slightly smaller than the Hyundai Ioniq 6. The seals scheduled to be sold in Korea are 4,800mm in full length, 1,875mm in full width, and 1,460mm in full height (57.4 inches), which has a longer full length and wheel base than SEAL06.
The appearance is very similar to the SEAL06 DM-i plug-in hybrid model already on sale.There are some changes in the front design. The rear lamps are almost identical.A tail lamp design with the same context as the seal06 GT hatchback was applied.
The domestic standard sedan electric vehicle seal is expected to be released in the first half of this year. Seal 06 EV launch in Korea is undecided.
