BYD SEALION 7
Exterior & Design
-
The SEALION 7’s design draws heavily on ocean aesthetics, with flowing, dynamic lines evoking movement, and an aerodynamic profile that both contributes to style and efficiency. The vehicle uses a sweeping fastback design and dual waistline that mimics waves. BYD
-
The front styling adopts the “OCEAN X” motif—an X-structure in the grille/front fascia that gives a strong, commanding presence. BYD
-
Tail lamps are a distinctive element: linear strips combined with water-drop shaped dots, giving a futuristic, energetic motion-evoking look. BYD
-
Practical features include an electric tailgate with foot gesture activation, an anti-pinch safety system and customizable stopping positions. BYD
