The BYD Seal Design 82.5kWh reaches 60 mph in 5.26 s (100 km/h in 5.56 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.04 s, tripping the lights at 97.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.28 s and the eighth mile in 9.03 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

The 2023 BYD Seal Design 82.5kWh is a rear-drive electric saloon of 2,130 kg with 308 bhp, which works out at 145 bhp per tonne. With full torque from a standstill it clears the first 60 ft in 2.28 s, and the question for an electric car is usually not the launch but whether it keeps pulling: it trips the quarter-mile lights at 97.5 mph. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,412th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 4th quickest of the 12 BYDs here. Its 97.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
