JAKARTA - BYD is getting serious about working on the ASEAN market. After success with several of its models, now it's the Sealion 6 DM-i's turn to be ready to steal the attention of Thai consumers. This hybrid SUV comes with a modern design, complete features, and attractive performance.

With a firm curvature and a flowing line, Sealion 6 looks very modern and sporty. A slightly larger dimension than Honda CR-V makes it look more dashing and sturdy.

The interior Sealion 6 is dominated by high-quality materials and futuristic designs. The 12.8-inch turning touch screen is the center of attention in the cabin. State-of-the-art features such as wireless charging and 360-degree camera systems are increasing driving comfort.

Meanwhile, a combination of 1.5 liters of gasoline and electric motors produces a maximum of 218 PS and 300 Nm of torque. Acceleration of 0-100 km/hour in just 8.5 seconds, is quite impressive for a hybrid SUV.

BYD is not playing games in terms of safety. Sealion 6 is equipped with various active and passive safety features, such as airbags, ABS, EBD, and a number of other driver assistance features.

BYD Sealion 6 DM-i comes as an attractive alternative for consumers looking for a complete hybrid SUV and good performance. At competitive prices, this SUV has the potential to pose a serious threat to its competitors in the ASEAN market.
