      Same lang naman yan in the end. All toyota hybrid and full ev from 2026 onwards will use byd batteries and power train. So in the end both will be BYD.

    Byd seal 5 threatens civic and altis as well since size wise its bigger than both and less expensive. And of course its fuel efficiency is unmatched.

      There exists a version that is such. Seal 7 DMi. It has the exterior of the Sealion 6 but the instrument cluster is still a single screen similar to most of BYDs cars. Sadly not here. Yet.

    Not so fun fact of why it was named Destroyer in China.
    BYD planned to name all BEVs after animals (Seagull, Dolphin, Seal, etc.) and PHEVs after warships (Destroyer, Cruiser, Lander, etc.). However, they were unable to register Cruiser as a trademark because it was already owned by Toyota (Land Cruiser). So they merged all warships into animals, adding a DM-i suffix in China (the designation of their hybrid powertrain), or a single digit outside China.

    If you tell me that a car less than a million can go 0-100 in less than 8 seconds I would believe you (coolray/emzoom to name a few) BUT if you would say the same car has a fuel mileage of ~25km per liter, can go full EV mode for better city traffic fuel mileage I would laugh at you very hard.

      Autoshops outside CASA will surely stock more parts if the population of a car grows. Getting parts from China is a lot lot easier than getting parts from Indonesia (Toyota Daihatsu). Heck even parts for JDM cars are mostly from China (class A/Aftermarket)

      How does this relate to his body being a host? I'm a woman, and I'm not obese, I have many friends who struggle with their weight. They want to be fit, but sometimes health issues get in the way. It's important not to judge him, we don't know what he's been through. Everyone has their own unique appearance, and that deserves respect. His body is his concern, and we have no right to tell him what to do with it.
