Byd, the first super hybrid wagon debuts at the Munich motor show: Seal 6 Dm-i touring

How the propulsion system works 

The new Seal 6 Dm-i touring is equipped with Byd's Super Hybrid with Dm (Dual Mode) technology, which integrates several innovations including dual high-speed electric motors with integrated controller, the Blade Battery and a 1.5-litre Xiaoyun petrol engine.

The result is a propulsion system that functions most of the time as an EV, with up to 105 km of purely electric range, and intelligent control brings efficiency to a weighted combined consumption of 1.5 l/100 km and a combined range of up to 1,505 km for the saloon version and 1,350 km for the station version.

Dolphin Surf will be built in Europe;

During the press conference it was confirmed that the Dolphin Surf will be the first model to be produced in the new Byd factory in Hungary. The factory in Szeged remains on schedule to start production by the end of 2025, and the model will lead the brand's new generation built for Europe.

Vice-President Stella Li also confirmed that the expected Flash Charging will soon arrive in Europe and that installations will start even earlier than planned, as early as the first quarter of 2026.

Finally, the first vehicle to support the incredible 1000 kW (1 Megawatt) charging power will be the Denza Z9GT, the flagship grand tourer of Byd's premium brand.

During the press conference, Vice-President Stella Li showed the growth numbers Byd is experiencing in Europe, where it will be present in 32 countries with more than a thousand stores by the end of 2025.

But the Chinese giant is growing worldwide, reaching position number 91 in the Fortune Global 500, the ranking of the most powerful companies globally. This result was achieved thanks to a strategy involving BEVs and PHEVs. 2.86 million units were sold worldwide in the first eight months of the year, putting Byd in first place in the first half of the year with around 2 million units sold globally.
