-
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:

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.
