On March 27, BYD announced that the 2026 Seal 06GT and 2026 Seal 06DM-i Wagon models—part of its "Ocean Network" series—will officially launch on April 2. Both new vehicles will feature BYD's second-generation Blade Battery and "Flash Charging" technology. Charging from 10% to 70% takes just 5 minutes, while charging from 10% to 97% takes only 9 minutes; even in extreme low-temperature environments of -30°C, the charging time increases by a mere 3 minutes.
As new additions to the lineup, both models continue to embody BYD's "Ocean Aesthetics" design philosophy. Specifically, the Seal 06GT features a closed-off front grille paired with sharp, distinctive headlights. Its side profile conveys a dynamic, "diving" stance, accentuated by crisp character lines and flush-fitting door handles. The full-width rear taillight strip is flanked by dual L-shaped light clusters on either side. The vehicle measures 4,630 mm in length, 1,880 mm in width, and 1,490 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,820 mm. It offers a choice of two electric motor outputs—240 kW or 200 kW—with upgraded driving ranges of 520 km and 620 km, respectively.
