What is the BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh 0-60 time?

The BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh reaches 60 mph in 8.02 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,558th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh quarter mile time?

16.34 s at 83.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.47 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh have?

215 bhp and 1,940 kg, which is 111 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 170 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh?

Closest here on pace: Cupra Formentor 1.5 TSI 150 (8.04 s), Peugeot 2008 1.2 PureTech 130 (2016) (7.98 s), Mazda CX-5 2.2 Skyactiv-D 175 (8.03 s). Each one can be raced against the BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Are these real measured times?

No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh

The 2024 BYD Seal U DM-i Boost 18.3kWh is a front-drive turbocharged SUV of 1,940 kg with 215 bhp, which works out at 111 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.54 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 6,558th quickest to 60 mph, and the 10th quickest of the 12 BYDs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 83.6 mph at the lights is only the 8,040th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.
