BYD To Launch Tesla Model Y Competitors At Guangzhou International Motor Show 2023

JAKARTA - BYD, one of the leading electric vehicle manufacturers from China, is ready to present its newest electric SUV, Sea Lion 07, which aims to challenge the dominance of the Tesla Model Y.

Reporting from Carnewschina, Wednesday, November 15, the electric SUV will be inaugurated in the near future, to be precise at the Guangzhou International Motor Show on November 17, 2023.

From the teaser that has been released, a modern design can be seen on the front of Sea Lion 07 with sharp lights that give a dashing impression. The lines of the design flowing from the side to the back provide a futuristic look on this car.

Although no detailed information has yet been revealed, it is estimated that this new model will use e-platform 3.0 BYD. The price of Sea Lion 07 is expected to be under the new BYD Song L, whose pre-order opening was held last month.

BYD, with its global high sales, is now Tesla's serious competitor in the full electric car segment. In second place with sales of more than one million units of full electric vehicles worldwide, BYD has ambitions to shift Tesla's dominance which remains at the top by a difference of 300 thousand units.

The presence of Sea Lion 07 is expected to make a positive contribution to the sale of BYD electric vehicles in the future and further challenge Tesla's dominance in the electric car market.
