BYD Sime Motors has officially introduced the latest BYD SEAL to the Malaysian market, offering buyers a choice of two refined variants – Premium and Performance.
Building on the success of its predecessor, which secured the title of Malaysia’s best-selling electric sedan in 2024, the updated SEAL promises stronger driving dynamics, greater comfort, and more advanced features.
The new model has been positioned to sustain the brand’s momentum in the local EV segment. Sime Motors emphasised that with the upgraded SEAL and the forthcoming CKD (Completely Knocked Down) production, BYD is set to strengthen its position as Malaysia’s leading battery electric vehicle brand.
The Performance variant headlines the line-up, sprinting from 0–100km/h in just 3.8 seconds. It comes fitted with the DiSus-C Intelligent Damping Body Control System, a suspension technology designed to sharpen handling and improve stability at high speeds. Enhancing its sporty character further are distinctive red brake callipers, unique to this version.
For those prioritising range and comfort, the Premium variant delivers an impressive 650 km NEDC driving range. It features Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) shock absorbers, which adapt to varying road conditions, offering a balanced ride that blends comfort with precise control.
Both variants receive notable design enhancements, including newly designed 19-inch alloy wheels, an electric sunshade for the panoramic sunroof, a BYD Digital Key with NFC and Bluetooth connectivity, and even a dedicated sunglass holder for added convenience.
The SEAL is available in four exterior colours – Aurora White, Atlantis Grey, Cosmos Black, and a new Shark Grey option, giving buyers a fresh palette to choose from.
Pricing for the new SEAL begins at RM171,800 for the Premium variant and RM191,800 for the Performance variant. To commemorate the launch, the first 300 customers will benefit from the exclusive “SEAL THE DEAL” package, valued at up to RM10,888. The package includes a complimentary wall charger, a service package, and a special launch rebate.
Bookings for the new BYD SEAL are now open at BYD outlets nationwide.
Alongside the model launch, BYD Sime Motors, in collaboration with Wing Hin Ventures Sdn Bhd, has officially opened Malaysia’s largest BYD 3S Centre in Balakong. The facility underscores the brand’s rapid expansion, bringing the total number of BYD outlets across the country to 36.
Spanning 3,360 square metres across three levels, the Balakong centre is designed to deliver a comprehensive and premium ownership experience.
It houses two full showroom floors, 10 fully equipped service bays, a dedicated office floor and a 1,514 square metre after-sales area. BYD Sime Motors highlighted that the new facility demonstrates the company’s commitment to customer satisfaction, with after-sales care being a core pillar of its strategy.
The expansion of the retail and service network forms part of BYD’s broader plan to make electric vehicle ownership in Malaysia more accessible and convenient, ensuring that both sales and after-sales support match the expectations of a fast-growing customer base.
