The BYD Seal 07 DM-i (Chinese: 比亚迪海豹07 DM-i; pinyin: Bǐyǎdí Hǎibào 07 DM-i), previously the BYD Seal DM-i until 2024, is a plug-in hybrid full-size sedan manufactured by BYD Auto since 2023. It was introduced in a prototype form at Auto Shanghai as the BYD Destroyer 07, and was renamed to integrate it with the Seal series of sedans. Sold through Ocean Network dealerships, the Seal DM-i is positioned in the BYD's range as a cheaper alternative to the similar BYD Han, which belongs to Dynasty Network dealerships. It went on sale in September 2023 in China.[4]
