AutoExec Summary
BYD Australia’s most popular electric car, the BYD Seal, is set to undergo updates for a mid-life refresh in Australia later in 2024. The updates will include the introduction of lidar technology for its intelligent driving system, offering autonomous driving capabilities. The Seal will also receive minor styling upgrades and a revised cabin for the 2025 model year. The use of lidar is a notable change, as other Chinese brands have already introduced similar technology in their vehicles. BYD’s ambitious goal is to outsell Toyota in Australia by 2030. Other models, such as the Sealion 6 and Dolphin, will also be added to the Australian line-up.
Brands mentioned: BYD, Tesla, Xpeng, Li Auto, Great Wall, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Ford
