Euro NCAP evaluates vehicles across four critical areas: Adult Occupant protection, Child Occupant protection, Vulnerable Road Users protection, and Safety Assist. The SEALION 7 excelled in each, proving its dedication to comprehensive safety. In Adult Occupant protection, it earned an 87% score, with testers praising its whiplash protection and robust performance in side-impact tests. Its Child Occupant protection score of 93%—the highest in nearly a decade—highlights its appeal as a family-friendly vehicle, bolstered by a child-presence detection system that alerts drivers if a child is left inside.
The SUV’s Safety Assist category scored 79%, thanks to a suite of driver-assistance features like autonomous emergency braking, lane-support, and speed-assistance systems. These technologies enhance both safety and driving comfort. Additionally, the SEALION 7 integrates BYD’s innovative Blade Battery and Cell-to-Body construction, contributing to its structural integrity.
BYD, a global leader in electric vehicles, continues its safety legacy with the SEALION 7 joining models like the DOLPHIN and ATTO 3 in earning five-star ratings. This achievement reinforces BYD’s commitment to blending safety, performance, and sustainability, making the SEALION 7 a standout option for eco-conscious drivers seeking a secure, advanced SUV.
