BYD SEAL U electric SUV

The BYD SEAL U (part of the Ocean Series) is a versatile electric SUV produced by BYD Auto, a subsidiary of the Chinese multinational BYD Company. Originally launched in China as the BYD Song Plus, the vehicle was rebranded as the SEAL U for European and international markets to align with the success of the Seal sedan.

BYD was founded in 1995 as a battery manufacturer and transitioned into the automotive industry in 2003. Today, it is one of the world's leading manufacturers of New Energy Vehicles (NEVs). The SEAL U is primarily manufactured in BYD's advanced production facilities in China, such as those in Shenzhen or Changsha. The brand is entirely owned by BYD Company, headquartered in Shenzhen, China, which remains a dominant force in global electric mobility and battery technology.
