BYD Seagull Langstreckenvariante: 405 km Reichweite für unter 10.000 Euro

More range at the mini price

BYD extends its entry -level model to the new Seagull 405km-Free-Version. For the equivalent of only 9,332 euros you will now receive a 38.9 kWh battery and 405 km CLTC range - Ideal for commuters who want to combine favorable electromobility with long -distance suitability.

Technical data at a glance

Why is that important?

  • Price breaker: No other electric car offers so much reach per euro in China.

  • Sales racer: Over 60,000 Seagull units in May alone; a total of 1 million vehicles produced.

  • European potential: As Byd Dolphin Surf Can be ordered from € 22,990-whether the 405 km version follows is exciting.

Classification for Europe

If BYD also offers the new battery here, the surf with real ~ 350 km WLTP could set a price-performance benchmark and shake through the market for city-EVs-a clear announcement to Dacia Spring & Co.

outlook

BYD plans to further expand the Seagull platform. If the 405 km variant comes to Germany, discount battles in the small car segment should follow-good for everyone looking for cheap e-mobility.
