BYD keeps pressure on the market with a pre-sale price that attacks the middle of China's hybrid SUV lane.
BYD's Sealion 07 DM-i pre-sale is another reminder that China's price war is no longer confined to small EVs. The pressure is moving into larger, more profitable family vehicles.1
The plug-in hybrid positioning gives BYD a practical edge. It can speak to buyers who want electric miles without treating charging access as a daily constraint.
The price point will force rivals to decide whether to protect margin, match features, or answer with financing.
