Since its debut in April 2023, the BYD Seagull has stood out in the A00 market with its excellent performance and design, becoming the sales champion with a total sales of 280,217 units. Against this background, BYD has once again expanded its product line, launching the Seagull Honor Edition, which is not only an upgrade to the original model, but also a re-demonstration of the brand’s strength. On March 6, 2024, the Seagull Honor Edition was officially launched with an official guide price of 69,800 to 85,800 yuan (11920$), and added the option of the North Ice Blue exterior and Deep Sea Blue interior, providing consumers with more personalized choices.
In terms of exterior design, the Seagull Honor Edition inherits BYD’s consistent “marine aesthetics” design concept, with a sharp and dynamic overall shape that not only showcases the vivid form of marine life, but also reflects the technological sense of new energy vehicles.
The front face adopts a sporty design style with sharp edges and decisive lines, showcasing the bold and direct character of the seagull.
The body size of the Seagull Honor Edition is 3780mm/1715mm/1540mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2500mm. Its wheelbase ratio reaches 66.1%, which makes the body lines of the Seagull Honor Edition more relaxed compared to traditional compact cars, effectively eliminating the tension and presenting the unique “Seagull Wing” dynamic waistline, making the entire car appear more dynamic and tense.
Looking at the rear of the car, the integrated taillights have strong recognition, the shapes on both sides of the rear bumper are sharp, and there are also large size spoilers and diffusers to enhance the sporty feel.
In terms of interior, the Seagull Honor Edition adopts a wrap-around cockpit design, providing a first-class sense of space. Its design style echoes the exterior and continues the main line of “fun, interesting, and personalized” through a multi-functional sporty steering wheel, wireless charging for mobile phones in the T-zone, and dual-tone seats and door panel linings, further enhancing the youthful and sporty atmosphere inside the car. In addition, the Seagull Honor Edition is also equipped with a 7-inch full LCD instrument panel and a 10.1-inch central control screen, equipped with DiLink smart networking system, supporting video playback, voice interaction, and other functions, providing a rich intelligent experience. At the same time, the car also supports mobile app interconnection, Bluetooth key, and NFC car key unlocking.
In terms of power system, the Seagull Glory Edition is based on BYD’s latest e-platform 3.0, equipped with a new three-in-one motor developed specifically for it, with a maximum power of 55kW and a maximum torque of 135N·m. In terms of range, the Seagull Glory Edition offers two versions, with ranges of 305km and 405km, and corresponding battery capacities of 30.08kWh and 38.88kWh, respectively, meeting the needs of users for daily commuting or short trips. In summary, with its outstanding design, powerful performance, and rich intelligent technology configuration, the BYD Seagull Glory Edition not only strengthens BYD’s leading position in the A00 market, but also provides consumers with more diverse and personalized choices, demonstrating the champion quality and high energy of the new generation mainstream commuter cars. With the continuous development of the smart electric vehicle industry, the BYD Seagull Glory Edition will undoubtedly become a highlight in the market, attracting more and more consumers’ attention and love.
