2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 PHEV: Beats Toyota RAV4 Hybrid

2024 Sea Lion 6 PHEV review: Is this China’s new mid-size SUV that beats hybrids?

The whirlwind of the Australian tour brought another local model, the Sea Lion 6 midsize SUV.

This is a significant arrival for several reasons. First, it gives the Chinese manufacturer access to Australia’s largest sales market, and as aPlug-in hybridHere are three models that BYD has launched since 2022After the Atto 3, the first driven model launched in AustraliaEmission vehicles,andshark

With annual sales expected to be around 20,000 units, local BYD dealer EVDirect has high hopes for the Sealion 6. it is itsBold triple-double sales targetAnd what will eventually become the cornerstone of Australia’s best-selling brand.

But so far, Australians haveNot much interest, and if they are interested in electrification, they prefer plug-in-free hybrids and pure electric vehicles.

So there must be a lot of work to be done here.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 price and equipment

Okay, if you’re wondering what Sealion 6 is, it was called Seal U in Australia until recently.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 cockpit.

But the desire to separate its identity from the electric Seal sedan prompted the change.

Therefore, considering that our coverage is already extensive, we will not repeat much beyond the specification basics.

There are two models available: the 48,990 front-wheel-drive Dynamic and the 52,990 AUD all-wheel-drive Premium (all prices include road rates). This pricing is easily lower than the Sea Lion 6’s most reasonable competitors and puts it in competition with the best-selling, no-plug hybrid.

Both Sealion 6s come with five seats, a 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol and an 18.3kWh BYD "Blade" LFP battery.

Dynamic has one at the front, while Premium has been added to the ICE, with another motor at the back.

All the key performance specs are at the bottom of this story, but essentially, the Sealion 6 uses BYD’s fourth-generation DM-i (dual-motor intelligent) PHEV system to provide a claimed electric range of 80 to 90 kilometers (based on the slower NEDC rating), with a combined range of about 1,000 kilometers.

In essence, a lower-powered Dynamic can go further, and a higher-powered Premium can go faster.

In addition to the mechanics, they are stacked very tightly on the device. They all come with 19-inch alloy wheels, panoramic sunroof, synthetic leather upholstery, the iconic BYD swivel screen, a comprehensive infotainment system (including karaoke!), as well as safety equipment and vehicle charging. Added to the premium version alone.

The 2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 has a comprehensive infotainment system. Even karaoke!

The vehicle is guaranteed for six years/150,000 km, the battery is guaranteed for eight years/160,000 km, the maintenance interval is 12 months/20,000 km, and the first five maintenance costs total $1600.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6: Our Thoughts

Riding in the 2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 Premium, the first impression is luxurious, luxurious; large screen, soft covering. Only the rough stretching and tilt adjustment on one car hints at quality defects.

It lacks the unique nautical theme of the Atto 3. Instead, it has a modern and inviting appearance, which is typical of Chinese automakers.

Comfortable and flat power-adjustable front and rear seats, even for tall passengers, also provide support for this, with rear seats that can be raised for better views and that can recline but not slide.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 rear seat.

The car comes with ample storage space, dual smartphone wireless chargers on the front, and front and rear USB ports.

The downside is that the trunk is only 425 litres, which is too small compared to competitors such as the Toyota RAV4. After the rear seats are folded, the trunk space can be expanded to 1440 litres. But you can’t find a spare tire, only a repair tool.

Our first drive was limited to Lang Lang’s old proving ground, so it didn’t cover all driving conditions; there were few stops, and that’s where the hybrid comes in the most.

But it does offer the opportunity to learn the basics of Sealion 6, and they seem to work well.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6.

The powertrain wants to run as purely electric as possible (in tandem blended mode), but the driver can choose parallel mode to be on call and make a sound when more power is needed. There are also three driving modes – Economy, Normal and Sport.

The gasoline engine primarily acts as a range extender, so no matter what your left foot is doing, it will basically hum in the background in a steady state.

It does take an active part in driving the wheels at high speeds, under higher loads (e.g. when towing on a hill or when the battery is depleted). Drivers can also set the battery charge status when the ICE is started.

Just then, the stupid official fuel consumption statement was exposed as a fantasy.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6.

BYD’s argument is that most Australians only drive an average of 30km a day, so they may never use any fuel. If they drive longer distances, they won’t worry about charging because ICE can act as a backup.

Although the powertrain experience is very smooth, the Sea Lion 6 Premium doesn’t feel like a vehicle with 228kW and 550Nm, nor is it capable of accelerating from standstill to 100km/h in 5.9 seconds as claimed.

It’s sturdy, but it’s not.So…Solid.

The rest of the driving experience reminds us that Chinese manufacturers still have a long way to go in terms of fine-tuning the ride, handling, and steering.

The Sea Lion 6 is locally tested and tuned for a soft and comfortable setting, which means there is a noticeable body roll around corners. The steering is adjustable in both modes, but both are light. So it makes sense that this is better for more stressful city work.

In its class, it lags far behind the best drivers, but at first glance it is also more composed than its Chinese compatriots, the H6, and the MG HS.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6.

The lane-keeping intervention is delicate by Chinese standards. No one ever grabbed the wheel with force and impact during the hands-free self-driving tests – which is nice, but not legal. A fix has been scheduled for release.

2024 BYD Sea Lion 6: Verdict

The 2024 BYD Sea Lion 6 has an impressive powertrain, ample equipment, and a price tag that allows it to compete with major competitors, such as a range of high-end products.

At first glance – definitely more driving is needed – it feels powerful and comfortable to ride. But in terms of dynamics, there are better vehicles in the field.

The question is whether Australians will eventually seize the opportunity presented by Sea Lion 6 to adopt PHEV technology in large numbers, and whether enthusiast enthusiasm for BYD will translate into a wider audience.

It may seem like a daunting challenge, but within just a few years of landing in Australia, the BYD Cyclone taught us that anything is possible.

"Family with Children" "Xiaoxue" premiered in an adult play, smearing and pretending to be a Miao girl

"Wounded" makeup


Yang Zi and the younger brother in the film "Gazi"

  A few days ago, a war movie "Changde Bloodshed", which reflects the Kuomintang’s frontal resistance to the Japanese army, is under intense filming at Wang Zuo’s Bayi Film and Television Base. The film stars Lv Liangwei, Yang Zi, and An Yixuan. Yang Zi plays a tragic Miao girl in the play – Tao’er, which is also Yang Zi’s first role as an adult.

  The film tells the story of 8,000 Kuomintang troops who stubbornly resisted after being surrounded by Japanese 30,000 in Changde in 1943 due to the miscalculation of the situation by the Kuomintang army. Yang Zi plays the tragic Miao girl Tao’er, who was born into a poor family. Her parents were killed by the Japanese invaders. She lived with her younger brother since she was a child, and later grew up into a revolutionary youth through the experience of war. Yang Zi, who is 17 years old, experiences many "firsts" in this film.

Participating in a war drama for the first time

  "The Great Battle of Changde" is a majestic war drama and a man’s drama. During the Battle of Changde, the 57th Division of the 74th Army of the Kuomintang Army, which was responsible for defending Changde City, fought alone for 16 days and nights with 8,000 divisions against well-equipped 40,000 invaders under the circumstances that it was easy to attack and difficult to defend. In the end, almost the entire army was killed, but it also caused heavy casualties to the Japanese army. Yang Zi plays Tao’er, an army nurse who goes through the baptism of war with the troops. Yang Zi’s previous roles were all good girls at home or good students in the school. The scenes were all familiar schools and units. This time, he changed to the battlefield where the war was raging and the corpses were everywhere. She confessed that when she first arrived on the cast of "Changde Blood Battle", she was very uncomfortable. "When I saw the wounded soldiers, I was very afraid." I didn’t even dare to approach the "wounded" who were wearing makeup. Later, Yang Zi gradually integrated into the character, experiencing the difficult environment of the war era and the emotions of people in extraordinary times. She is a senior in high school and said that the film was an important lesson for her life and made her "grow a lot."

Playing an adult role for the first time

  In the film, Tao’er is positioned in her twenties; for Yang Zi, who has just passed her seventeenth birthday, this is her first time challenging the role of an "adult". The biggest problem when setting makeup is how to look old. Several makeup tests were considered "too tender" by the director, and finally the director and makeup artist finally came up with a trick to look old: wearing a black face. The makeup artist used foundation on Yang Zi’s face and body that was several sizes darker than her skin tone. After makeup, Yang Zi looked like a "female bag", and she really looked haggard and old, which was more in line with Tao’er’s identity and age. When it comes to this unique makeup, Yang Zi laughs and says: "In the past, when I was filming, I always worried that my makeup was not perfect, so I would bring a small mirror to check myself at any time. This time, I don’t worry, it seems that the dirtier and uglier the better." When asked if I would worry about looking too ugly, Yang Zi said: "No, the actor just needs to be close to the character, and it doesn’t matter what kind of sacrifice is made in order to be close to the character!" — Yang Zi, who is only a senior in high school but has 12 years of acting experience, has already demanded himself by the standards of professional actors.

The first time a tragic woman

  Unlike the simple and simple characters in the past, Tao’er, a Miao girl in "Changde Blood Battle", is a woman with a bumpy fate. Her parents died when she was young, and she raised her younger brother alone. Afraid of losing her younger brother, she stopped him from fighting against the Japanese, and later joined the revolutionary team. Yang Zi said that her previous roles were all children, who were cared for, but this time she has to take care of her younger brother as a "sister" or even a "mother", which is not a big challenge for her; the inner drama is much more complicated, and it needs to be natural and appropriate to express Tao’er’s change from not supporting the revolution to joining the revolution. Facing such a difficult role, Yang Zi has no stage fright – she started acting at the age of five, and she has accumulated a lot of experience with many big names. She is like the "youngest old actor". Yang Zi’s performance was well received by the director, who said she "played better than many actors who graduated from college."

"Dragon Horse Spirit" premiere! Jackie Chan looks back on 60 years of film and moves people’s hearts

1905 movie network news On March 31st, the film written, directed, and starred by Yang Zi held its world premiere in Beijing. On the occasion of Jackie Chan’s 60-year career in film, he starred as the Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist. This movie is full of sincerity and deeply moved the audience. In the movie, the fresh combination of Jackie Chan and Chitu "one person and one horse" is not only interesting and loving, but also makes people’s eyes shine, and it also creates a lot of tears. The plot of people and horses together cried a lot of audiences. The down-and-out martial artist Lao Luo played by Jackie Chan is more like Jackie Chan himself in a parallel world. He has fought for a lifetime, and he has adhered to the spirit of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist who "really fights and really falls". The story of "sincere feelings" inside and outside the play is equally touching. At the event, the big brother asked the audience how they felt about the movie. The audience responded to the big brother with a "good-looking" and "moved" sound, and many audience members gave thumbs up and praised the movie and the big brother who insisted on loving it.


"I used to watch Jackie Chan movies, but this time I feel especially distressed." After the premiere, many viewers mentioned "touching and distressed" in their joy. Lao Luo, who was distressed by the spirit of Dragon Tiger Martial Artist in the movie, was also moved by Jackie Chan, who has loved movies for 60 years outside the movie. When it comes to when I will fight, the eldest brother sighed, "This year is my 60th year in the industry. From being unknown to the present, I have received the support of fans all over the world. As long as I can move and play, I hope to make a movie every year to dedicate to my audience and fans all over the world. Some viewers said," Seeing the big brother who is nearly 70 years old on the big screen still really fighting and really falling is a familiar taste, but it is a new touch. " Another fan said, "If big brother wants to fight until he can’t move, we will accompany big brother to the end of love."


"Dragon Horse Spirit" by Jackie Chan, Liu Haocun, Guo Qilin starring ,、、、、、、 starring, especially starring ,、、、、、、、、、、、、、 Xie Hongxin friendship starring, will be released in the country on April 7, the film is currently hot pre-sale.


Jackie Chan is 68 years old, hits 9 shots, closes and insists on shooting

It’s a real fight, it’s a real hit, and it’s a tribute to the dragon and tiger martial artist.


In the movie, Jackie Chan plays Lao Luo, a down-and-out martial artist who makes a living shooting thrilling action scenes on the set with the loving horse Chitu. Director Yang Zi revealed that he is a fan of Big Brother, who has a great influence on his film creation. He has always had a "Jackie Chan dream" in his heart. This story has been brewing in his heart for many years. In the script writing stage, Big Brother is the only candidate for the movie. " The Spirit of Dragon and Tiger shows the current situation and predicament of many Dragon and Tiger martial artists, which also makes Jackie Chan, who has been committed to action movies, can’t help but cry when he sees the script. The eldest brother also shared the touching mood when listening to the director’s script, "I was stabbed in a certain place, and I cried at once. This is the story of all Dragon and Tiger martial artists and stunt people behind the scenes." The eldest brother also admitted that "a director who is so attentive wants to shoot a story dedicated to Dragon and Tiger martial artists" is the reason why he took over the filming of "Dragon and Horse Spirit". The eldest brother even postponed the operation and received 9 shots to close the group, and starred in tribute to the Dragon and Tiger martial artist group.


Just as Lao Luo said in the movie "tribute has to come true", at the shooting scene, big and small action scenes, big brother all went into battle in person, insisting on real fights and real falls, so that the closure that should have a pain-relieving effect for half a year was consumed within 20 days. When big brother and special star Wu Jing confronted each other, the two could not help but cry when they recalled the experience of working hard on the set in the past. At the shooting scene, big brother often appeared on the set to help when he was resting. When talking about the reason, big brother shared, "I am quite lonely, and I can only be very happy at the scene, so I like to start work", which is heartbreaking and touching. As we all know, Jackie Chan has also gone from being a substitute group actor to a dragon and tiger martial artist, and then to action guidance. With all his injuries, he has become an international actor step by step, which is admirable.


Warm and touching, the most unique Jackie Chan movie

Audience: I used to watch it hurt, this time it hurts


After watching the movie, many viewers gave comments of "laughter and tears" and "joy and touching coexistence", and the audience sighed, "This is a Jackie Chan movie that is different from the past. I used to laugh when I watched big brother movies, but this time I shed tears of emotion." In "Spirit of Dragon Horse", Jackie Chan is no longer an omnipotent hero who turns everything around, but an ordinary person who is down and out and needs protection. In the film, Lao Luo not only loves his horse to be robbed, but also faces the fate of being replaced by special effects. It is heartbreaking to stand hard for his love and love.


Taking off the armor, this time Jackie Chan’s character is much softer and more poking. In addition to the familiar Jackie Chan-style action and comedy elements, the movie contains the big brother’s affectionate look back and sincere confession to the 60-year film career, and in Lao Luo, people can also see the appearance of Jackie Chan in the parallel world. Many "sharp-eyed" viewers discovered many details, "There are many hidden easter eggs in the movie, and many plots can also see the shadow of the big brother’s 60-year film career."


The group pet Red Rabbit has countless fans, and Jackie Chan specially contacted the home for Red Rabbit.

Audience: Surprise! One man, one horse action drama is fresh and beautiful


Director Yang Zi’s previous films showed the cuteness and agility of the little animals to the fullest. This time, the challenge to shoot the horse escalated the difficulty, and the healing and touching also escalated. After the premiere, the horse Red Rabbit, who showed a lot of color in "Dragon Horse Spirit", had countless fans. Many viewers expressed their love for Red Rabbit, "The red rabbit is naughty and naughty in front of it, and it is very smart and sensible in the back." In fact, it is difficult to cooperate with a huge horse in filming, but the big brother used his own experience to warm his heart and take care of the red rabbit, presenting a wonderful human circus. The elder brother also shared his daily relationship with Chitu at the scene, "From the first day of filming, I have cultivated a relationship with Chitu, fed it every day, made it familiar with my taste, and made it completely trust me."


In the movie, Jackie Chan and Red Rabbit have a lot of opposite scenes. The "one person, one horse" tacit cooperation on the set is very exciting, and the warm heart that depends on each other heals people’s hearts. Some audience members said that "I am very surprised. The action scenes between Big Brother and Red Rabbit are both fresh and interesting. It is definitely the most special action partner of Big Brother." Several months of shooting time also made Jackie Chan and Red Rabbit become real family. When the movie was finished and Red Rabbit said goodbye, Jackie Chan couldn’t help but cry, and frankly said that "Red Rabbit is like a family member." At the scene, director Yang Zi also shared the big brother’s warm concern for Red Rabbit, "Big brother has been asking for the final destination of Red Rabbit since the start of filming, and even contacted himself everywhere. Finally, he sent Red Rabbit to the best horse farm in China, and Big Brother was relieved." The friendship between one person and one horse is very touching.


Liu Haocun choked up and bowed to thank him, and the eldest brother warmly encouraged him

Guo Qilin reproduces the straddle on the spot, big brother "intimate" sparring partner


In the movie, there was a crying scene of Xiao Bao and Lao Luo watching past materials that infected many audiences. The video played Jackie Chan’s thrilling past scenes, which were regarded as classic life-fighting scenes. At the premiere, Liu Haocun was also deeply touched and couldn’t help choking up tears as he listened to Jackie Chan’s big brother share his hardships along the way and the warm moments of many creators sharing their cooperation with him. Speaking of the emotional part, Liu Haocun bowed to the director and Jackie Chan’s big brother to thank him, "I was very touched when I read the script, and I was deeply moved by the director’s dream of dragon and horse. Watching the action actors do thrilling actions at close range at the scene was very distressing, and I was also very encouraged. I should try my best to learn from my big brother and other teachers."


"Dragon Horse Spirit" is also another collaboration between Guo Qilin and director Yang Zi. In Yang Zi’s previous work "Pampering", Guo Qilin was "forced" to pass the addiction of action scenes, and summer parkour was not exciting. Unexpectedly, in "Dragon Horse Spirit", he was directly "practiced" by Jackie Chan. In the movie, Guo Qilin’s role of being trained by the big brother to straddle won bursts of laughter from the audience. At the event scene, Guo Qilin reproduced the straddle skills. His performance was stable and smooth, but who knew that the big brother suddenly took a horse step, and the "intimate" sparring partner surprised and delighted Guo Qilin. Guo Qilin also shared the experience of being "trained" by his eldest brother on the first meeting, "the first time I met, I thought I didn’t need to practice action scenes as a lawyer, but my eldest brother suddenly threw an ashtray for me to pick up and train my reaction ability."


The elder brother recalled the past and moved the audience, "If you break your foot in the morning, you will start work in the afternoon"

Director: That era was absolutely glorious, and the spirit was worth inheriting


At the scene of the event, recalling the past, the eldest brother acted calmly, "I used to break my foot in the morning and start work in the afternoon, and kneel on the wheelchair to start work when I broke my foot." Those blood and tears touched everyone present. With the changes of the times and the development of the film industry, the way of doing things in the past of Dragon and Tiger Martial Artists has no longer been mainstream, but their spirit of daring to fight and fight has been preserved. The line "Your era has passed" in the movie made many viewers sigh with emotion, and the director also shared the creative feelings of this line. "What we want to express is that this era will never pass, the spirit of choosing one thing to do for a lifetime has been preserved, and their love for movies is worthy of being passed down from generation to generation. That era is absolutely glorious."


In addition, the movie stars Yu Rongguang, Lang Yueting, Shi Yanneng, Pan Binlong, and action director He Jun also came to the premiere. He Jun, an action director who has followed his eldest brother for 23 years, has gone from a small martial arts step by step to today’s action director. Speaking of "The Spirit of Dragon Horse", he said with deep emotion, "Thank you to Director Yang Zi for bringing the story of Dragon Tiger Martial Master to the big screen. Although it is hard work, we can persevere because of love." At the scene, He Jun represented Chengjia Class and said to his eldest brother: "The way we express our love is to go all out, and we will do our best to complete what is told to us."


The movie "Ryoma Spirit" will be released nationwide on April 7.
