What is the Seal 06 DM-i?

It is a plug-in hybrid sedan in BYD’s Ocean series. CnEVPost reported that the Seal 06 DM-i and the separate Qin L DM-i—part of BYD’s Dynasty series—launched on the same day and were among the first models using BYD’s fifth-generation DM technology. The Seal 06 is not another name for the Qin L. CnEVPost, May 28, 2024

BYD’s current China model page describes a 1.5L plug-in-hybrid engine, an EHS electric-hybrid system, an NFC mobile-phone key and vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability. These are manufacturer-listed features, not independent test findings. BYD China model page

In its show-period report, Xinhua also listed a 2,790 mm wheelbase and described a hybrid-specific platform and independent rear suspension. Those details are from the 2024 China-market reporting and should not be assumed to describe every later trim or international version. Xinhua News, April 26, 2024

How does the later European SEAL 6 DM-i differ?

BYD later announced a European-market SEAL 6 DM-i sedan and Touring, with separate trim specifications. For the sedan, BYD’s European specification table lists WLTP combined electric range of 55 km for Boost and 105 km for higher-battery trims. For the Touring, it lists 50 km and 100 km respectively. These are European, body-style- and trim-specific WLTP figures; they should not be applied to the China-market Seal 06 DM-i or treated as universal real-world range. BYD Europe Media
