Review: 2026 BYD Tang DM-i
There’s always a joke (concern) that the higher you go up the BYD product range, the less it becomes enticing. While BYDs priced below P 2-million are great value like the Seagull and the Sealion 6, those north of P 2-million like the Seal and Sealion 7 are decidedly less so. The eMax 9 notwithstanding (I’ve yet to drive it), the Tang DM-i sits squarely in the middle of being both great and mediocre at the same time; a perfect representation of its P 2.148-million price tag then.
