Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

BYD Sealion 7
- SUV coupe styling is executed well, looks much more expensive than it actually is.
- 82.56kWh battery capacity ensures a real world range of 500km.
- Impeccable interior quality for the price. Soft touch material used generously on the dashboard and door pads.
- Features: 15.6” touchscreen, 10.25” driver’s display, panoramic glass roof, Level 2 ADAS — it has it all.
Mercedes-Benz EQA
- Cabin quality — soft touch material of the dashboard and doorpads, good quality leather wrap for the steering. Feels properly luxurious!
- Features: twin 10.25” displays, 710W Burmester Sound System, panoramic sunroof, powered front seats — all that you realistically need
- Large 70.5kWh battery pack. Claimed range is upto 560km; expect ~450km in real world conditions.

BYD Sealion 7
- Ride quality feels firm. Does not feel very comfortable over broken roads.
- Lacks the brand value/prestige many expect from a vehicle costing as much.
Mercedes-Benz EQA
- Lack of underthigh support in the rear due to raised floor.
- Shallow 340-litre boot is best suited for smaller trolley bags.
