BYD India, a subsidiary of BYD, the world's leading NEV (New Energy Vehicle) manufacturer, is celebrating the launch anniversary of the BYD SEAL with major product enhancements for the BYD SEAL luxury Electric sedan and the BYD ATTO 3, India’s first sporty born eSUV. These improvements further cement BYD's dedication to innovation and consumer happiness by enhancing performance, comfort, technology and the driving experience.

The inside of the BYD ATTO 3 has been updated with new black decor and ventilated seats for the driver and front passenger, which give the already elegant cabin a sense of refinement and gravity. This improvement gives the product a more upscale vibe, meeting the demands of discriminating Indian consumers. Additionally, a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery has replaced the low-voltage battery. Significant advantages of this update include a remarkable 15-year lifespan, five times better self-discharge usage and a six-fold reduction in weight when compared to traditional low-voltage batteries. As the first model in its sector to use the improved, longer-lasting LFP battery, the BYD ATTO 3 MY 2025 offers owners peace of mind by ensuring increased dependability and lifespan. The first 3,000 buyers will be able to purchase the BYD ATTO 3 MY 2025 at ex-showroom costs from the year 2024.

A new silver-plated dimmable canopy, a motorised sunshade and an updated air conditioning system with a bigger compressor are among the new amenities available for the BYD SEAL. The Performance trim now has the cutting-edge DiSus-C system, while the Premium version of the BYD SEAL has Frequency Selective Dampers (FSD) technology. By constantly modifying the dampers in response to hundreds of inputs every second, this adaptive damping technology improves comfort and stability. Additionally, for smooth smartphone connectivity, all BYD SEAL models now enable wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A brand-new sound wave feature has been added to the BYD SEAL's interior. In order to maximise driving enjoyment and enhance the acoustic experience within the cabin, it generates analogue noise that excites sound waves. BYD SEAL 2025 reservations go on sale on 11 March 2025, for INR 125,000. In April 2025, the prices of all the MY2025 BYD SEAL models will be revealed.

Rajeev Chauhan, Head – Electric Passenger Vehicles (EPV) Business, BYD India, said, “The enhancements to the BYD SEAL and BYD ATTO 3 represent a significant step forward in our commitment to the Indian market. Keeping innovation and technology as the core, we have delivered upgrades that enhance every aspect of the driving experience.  We're confident these improvements will solidify BYD's position as a leader in the EV revolution.”
