    Came across the latest technical details on Owner Discussion: BYD Sealion 7 Achieves Highest Ever Child Occupant Safety Score (93%) in 2025 Euro NCAP & ANCAP Tests — Thoughts & Specs Breakdown and thought I'd start a thread so we can compare notes and see what fellow owners think:

    BYD Sealion 7 Achieves Highest Ever Child Occupant Safety Score (93%) in 2025 Euro NCAP & ANCAP Tests — Thoughts & Specs Breakdown

    1. Key Highlights & What Stood Out to Me

    The BYD Sealion 7 EV has just been awarded a 5-Star Safety Rating by both Euro NCAP and ANCAP under the strict 2025 testing protocols, achieving a record-breaking 93% Child Occupant Protection score (the highest score recorded across any vehicle class in 2025) alongside 87% Adult Occupant Protection!

    Standard 9 airbags (including rear side thorax airbags and a far-side centre airbag) and the CTB e-Platform 3.0 Evo structure scored full points in both side-barrier and pole impact tests.

    2. Closer Look at the Specs & Hardware Packaging

    Technical Parameter Official BYD Specification & Benchmark
    Platform Architecture e-Platform 3.0 Evo with CTB (Cell-to-Body) Integration
    Drivetrain & Peak RPM 23,000 RPM Traction Motor (Up to 390 kW / 690 Nm AWD)
    DC Fast Charging Peak Up to 230 kW CCS2 (10% to 80% SOC in ~24 Minutes)
    Chassis & Safety DiSus-C Adaptive Damping + 5-Star ANCAP/Euro NCAP (93% Child)

    3. What Do Fellow BYD Owners Think?

    How do you see this fitting into your garage or next EV upgrade over the next 12–24 months? Keen to hear real-world thoughts from Atto 3, Seal, Dolphin, Sealion, and Shark 6 owners!

      93% Child Occupant Protection under the toughest 2025 Euro NCAP/ANCAP criteria is the ultimate peace of mind for a family SUV.

        @Lukas_AutobahnHan Including rear side-thorax airbags AND a front centre far-side airbag as standard across all trims is why it scored full marks.

            Good catch on those specifications. I checked the service manual torque specs and fuse layout over the weekend and everything matches what you outlined here.

              Interesting point about the charging curve. I found that plugging in around 15–18% SOC gives the fastest sustained peak kW before the BMS gently tapers above 80%.
