    good review. FYI You can change the indicator sound to the normal / generic sound.

    Lovely review with a lovely gent with a soothing voice. You can change indicator sound in menu. I had no idea there were two dual, motor versions. Thought they only made one.

    I just placed an order for this car in Hong Kong and it’s about €37,000. For that price, I can look past some of the issues with the suspension and the range.

    I think the single motor version is Rear Wheel Drive.

      You're absolutely correct, it was our mistake. The single-motor version is REAR wheel drive. Apologies!

      @@CompletecarIe No sweat, I know that mistakes happen.
      I even managed to download the wrong spec sheet myself before realising that I'd downloaded the Sealion 6 specs.
      That's what I suspect happened with you, easy enough mistake to make.

    Just sat in one in the showroom. What a nice and complete, well finished car for the money. Pretty impressive package...lot more than the Seal U (but in another price range, must be said: in Belgium the Sea lion excellence costs around 57500 euro)

    • @CompletecarIe

      Couldn't agree more! This is a more expensive option than say the Seal U, but it demonstrates how quickly BYD is evolving.

    • @davidcolin6519
      @davidcolin6519 2 місяці тому

      IIRC, the What Car review talked about the sound system, maybe it was one of the others.
      Now you're gonna have to watch them all! Sorry about that.

    • @android01978
      @android01978 2 місяці тому +1

      @ ha ha. Thank you. I do wonder why it seems to be often missed in car (p)reviews these days. To me it’s one of those things that can really put a damper on what otherwise would be a great car and the new electrics you can’t just replace the stereo like you could in the past.

    • @davidcolin6519
      @davidcolin6519 2 місяці тому

      @@android01978 Yeah. I agree. And the sound system is something that is so integral, and integrated, that, if you change the receiver, you can no longer use any of the integrated controls.
      However, I would point out that you can always change the speakers, which can often change the sound significantly.
      And the sound system is even more important in EVs as the lack of competing noises from the engine make a poor sound system that much more apparent.
