Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Volvo C40 Recharge

- Insanely quick and fun to drive thanks to 408PS dual motors
- Comfortable ride quality for our roads
- Has almost all the features one would expect
- ADAS works well despite illegible road markings
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.

Volvo C40 Recharge
- Space saver eats into the small 413-litre boot
- Small rear window means view is almost non existent
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.
