Seal 06 GT:
Low-slung front fascia combined with a grille-less design accentuates its electric performance DNA.
Introduces two exclusive body colors—"Aurora Purple" and "Portia Rose"—paired with blacked-out sports wheels and red brake calipers.
Optional roof-mounted LiDAR sensor available; driver-assistance indicator lights are integrated into the A-pillars, creating a distinct high-tech aesthetic.
Features an electronic column shifter design, freeing up additional storage space within the center console area.
Seal 06 DM-i Touring Edition:
Optimized based on the sedan variant, featuring a gently extending roofline that creates a "large cargo area" profile.
Comes standard with roof rails; the enlarged rear window area enhances rear-seat headroom and interior brightness.
The "floating" D-pillar design has sparked some debate, yet from a 45-degree rear-side angle, the actual vehicle possesses a highly distinctive and recognizable look.
Introduces a new exterior color—"Aurora Green"—along with a "Twilight Purple/Warm White" two-tone interior scheme, fostering a warm and inviting family-oriented atmosphere.
