BYD Cars PH Expands Sealion 6 DM-i With New Dynamic Variant


BYD Cars Philippines has expanded the Sealion 6 DM-i family for 2027, adding a new entry-level Sealion 6 DM-i Dynamic variant to the range.

Building on the success and popularity of the Sealion 6 DM-I, the Sealion 6 DM-i Dynamic offers all the essential features and functionalities of the best-selling compact SUV.

Like the Premium variant, which has likewise been updated for 2027, the Sealion 6 DM-i Dynamic is powered by the brand’s DM-i plug-in hybrid powertrain. Thanks to a beefier electric motor, maximum output has risen to 217 horsepower (from 197 horsepower). Torque, meanwhile, remains at 300 Nm. With an 18.7-kWh LFP Blade Battery, the all-electric range stays at 100 kilometers, while combined range rises to 1,200 kilometers.


Differentiating the Dynamic and the Premium, the Dynamic can only be charged via AC charging (6.6 kW), while the Premium now has DC fast charging capability (18 kW).

Outside, the Sealion 6 DM-i Dynamic and Premium variants look similar with the same Ocean x Face front fascia, 19-inch alloy wheels, panoramic sunroof, and all LED lighting. Both variants come in Harbor Gray, Arctic White, and Delan Black exterior colors, with an all-black cabin. The only difference? The Dynamic variant gets a manual tailgate while the Premium variant keeps its power tailgate.


Inside, both the Dynamic and Premium variants receive the same leather seating, but the former only has power adjustment to the driver’s seat (the Premium has a power adjustable front passenger seat too). Likewise, the Dynamic variant gets a smaller infotainment screen (12.8-inch versus 15.6-inch), less speakers (6 versus the 10-speaker Infinity system on the Premium), and no wireless charging pad. Both variants get a 360-degree camera with see-through view, but the Premium is the only one benefitting from front parking sensors.

In terms of safety, the Dynamic has basic cruise control and no ADAS features while the Premium now has expanded ADAS functions offering emergency lane keep assist, blind spot detection with rear cross traffic alert and braking as well as door opening warning.

The Sealion 6 DM-i starts at P 1,548,000 for the Dynamic, while the Premium variant is now priced at P 1,798,000.
