Worth knowing

  • Real-world range will fall meaningfully short of the claimed NEDC figures
  • Performance AWD variant carries a real premium of over Rs 12 lakh over the base Dynamic

Source Notes / Discrepancies

Source Notes / Discrepancies Dual-motor Performance AWD (530 PS combined) alongside efficiency-focused RWD variants on BYD's e-Platform 3.0 with Blade Battery. Prices confirmed against CarDekho, which matches this record's figures (Rs 41.50 / 46.20 / 53.65 lakh); some older aggregator listings still show pre-hike 2026 prices about Rs 0.5 lakh lower per variant. Colour names cross-checked against Autocar India's colour guide (Atlantis Grey, Aurora White, Cosmos Black, Arctic Blue); an older 'Shark Grey' listing appears to be a prior name for the same grey shade. BYD India's own website (bydautoindia.com) is a JavaScript-only app that returns no readable content to automated tools, and no official BYD press kit with studio photography of the India-spec Seal could be found as of 2026-09-30, so featured_media and colour photos are left empty.
