Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages of the BYD Seal registered in the EU/EEA in 2025 (10,356 cars), engine power from 26 countries, kerb weight from 27 countries. Source: EEA COβ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).
Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.

Power by engine variant (Norway)
603 BYD Seal cars registered for the first time in Norway in 2024β2025, by drivetrain and type-approved engine power. The EEA data has no trim names, so variants are told apart by power.
| Drivetrain | Power | Kerb weight | Years | Registered in Norway |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electric | 230 kW (308 hp) | 2,261 kg | 2024β2025 | 603 |
Power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the combustion engine, not the system output; for electric cars it can differ from the peak power in the makerβs marketing. Kerb weight is the average for the variant. Source: EEA COβ monitoring (CC BY 4.0), one record per car (the years EEA lists twice, 2019 to 2021, are counted once).

WLTP range by version
Type-approved WLTP range of the electric versions of the BYD Seal, as recorded for each car in the Dutch vehicle register (RDW). The table shows the median; the spread is where 80% of the cars fall.
| Power | Range | Spread | Consumption | First registered | Cars in NL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 160 kW (215 hp) | 520 km | β | 182 Wh/km | 2023β2025 | 174 |
| 170 kW (228 hp) | 460 km | β | 154 Wh/km | 2025β2026 | 362 |
| 230 kW (308 hp) | 570 km | β | 166 Wh/km | 2023β2026 | 630 |
| 390 kW (523 hp) | 520 km | β | 182 Wh/km | 2024β2026 | 81 |
WLTP is the test cycle of EU type approval, so the same version carries the same figure across the EU/EEA. Power is the net maximum electric power from the same register. Versions with fewer than 20 cars are left out. Source: Open Data RDW (Netherlands, CC0).
