2024 BYD Seal v Tesla Model 3 Comparison | Can the new Seal topple the reigning EV king?
BYD is making inroads into Tesla’s dominance of the Aussie EV landscape, but can the new Seal really threaten the latest Model 3? 👉 Full Review: www.carsales.com.au/editorial...
Until now, Tesla has been the dominant player in the electric car space, both locally and internationally, but Chinese giant BYD is making big inroads.
Last year, BYD overtook Tesla as the world’s largest producer of electrified cars - although Tesla held sway with pure battery-electric vehicles - and the new Seal, on paper at least, looks extremely competitive against the big-selling Model 3.
With more power, a longer range and a lower price, can the BYD Seal dethrone the EV king? And will this be enough for sales success?

They recently did a major OTA for the Seal that fixes many of the ADAS issues with the car. As an owner of a Seal, I can confirm that the ADAS significantly better than before
When you say better than before, do you mean completely fixed? Because the issued outlined in the video sound like deal breakers to me.
According to the engineers we've spoken with from Chinese brands, the local Chinese market prefers the more aggressive ADAS. They're still wrapping their heads around how to tune it for overseas markets where traffic flow is different.
@@serpserpserpIt’s fixed. We have a Seal Premium and while the speed chime was loud and incessant, the aggressive “emergency lane keep” was borderline dangerous as it tugs the wheel while you’re driving amongst cars in other lanes. Since the update, it’s completely fixed. The lane keep has never falsely triggered and is very docile even compared to our Mazda 3 which had a very standard lane keep system. The speed limit chime has also been fixed, it takes longer to activate, has an extra 1km/h leeway whereas before it would trigger when the car crept up in speed with the cruise control set. Now it doesn’t do that and even when you are above the speed limit, it is a very quiet chime that you can barely hear over music. All this has fixed the one major problem on what is otherwise been a well equipped luxe feeling electric sedan that isn’t exorbitant.
Got to drive one recently. Far better than it was. I still turn the systems off though, no matter what car I'm in. I just find them off-putting in general. It is difficult to find a good EV without those systems though.
@@carsalesNo that's not ture, BYD's ADAS is equally criticised by Chinese customers and reviewers.
BYD Seal more acceptable in every portions 👍
the weight?
No it’s not Gaga. Byd got no super charger network. Byd have no service. They have no real places to help you at all time.

@@andreasl4507 byd seal can still use v2, v3 and v4 charging stations without a problem. they do have services in australia, they also opened multiple service centres, this argument only works if youre talking about america, and even for europe, they do have both service partners and service centers
Sold the Tesla and now have the Seal Premium and will keep the 'clutter' thank you very much. No stalks > no thanks. And no unfortunate association with..........
Please fix your spec details on video. Tesla does not have 360 camera as stated.
03:54 ... 05:55 I don't luv the interior for both cars.
More negative comments it seems with the Tesla yet you gave the Seal no chance. A couple of tweaks with the driver assistance parameters on the Seal and it looks by far the better choice to me.
Hell no. I drivin both. Byd seal is for the broke people who think they are something. It’s a verry weak car and only looks good in videos. In real life it’s a mess

That's called political correctness. Nothing from China could ever be better than an American brand.

If you want a decent interior, then Tesla is out of the question.
Excellent video , it’s definitely the seal for me by a long shot
the base seal dynamic is $9k cheaper, very similar and big price advantage over the tesla
The basic version is also only 1/2 as powerful, has slower charge speed again and has a 50kwh battery - it'a a Dolphin in Seal's clothing.
Meanwhile in reality.... Cheapest seal has a 61.44kwh battery, which is similar in size to that on a standard range Tesla. Tesla standard range is 6.1 seconds Cheapest Seal is 7.5 seconds
@@TB-up4xi it’s got a 60kwh battery similar to Tesla, 150kw / 310nm engine, 0-100 in 7.5 secs-plenty quick enough
Base seal is trash
@@andreasl4507 Seal is trash, period.
First and foremost, everything you've mentioned about the BYD ADAS system, is now irrelevant. The resent OTA update has fixed all that. Getting an EV, was at the back of my mind for a while as it seems like a perfect fit to my commuting routine. However, all the EV's available were either too expensive or too ugly or both! And then came the Seal... When you want to grab the attention (and the business) of all of those who are sitting on the fence between ICE and EV, THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT!!!! By offering them something which feels upmarket and familiar. Not but forcing them to change their whole nature by cutting costs and calling them innovations! I honestly don't know how the Model 3 is street legal in Australia when you have to constantly take your eyes of the road for as much as checking your speed! That's not innovation, that's a bloody scandal. In fact, if the Model 3 came with an MG or LDV or BYD or GWM badge, you'd be pushing them cars back into the ocean with your bare hands!!!! So, spare me the hypocrisy. This is not innovation. This is cost cutting at its finest. Stop comparing such a beautiful car to an esky on wheels. Lucky they didn't take out the steering wheel so you don't forget you're in a vehicle! And before I get all the "you bloody commie" replies, I have no relation to China whatsoever (actually, both cars are fully made there anyway). But I wont deny my own eyes because of political correctness
Great comment, every penny of your money must be spent wisely, not so called political correctness
As a Model 3 owner with indicator and drive stalks, I agree, their removal for their updated model isn't innovation, it's cost cutting and I think could put buyers off because of that. But otherwise it's not that difficult of a car to get used to. And having to glance just to my left to see my speed is not as major a safety risk as you're making it out to be. Heck, unless you have a HUD, you're going to be looking down and taking your eyes off the road to glance your speed.
I never thought id agree with someone over a pusbucjet chinese car, but your right. The chinese win with thier evs vs tesla. Would i buy one. Nope not either, as they are entirely greenwashed propaganda.
Great review. Thanks for the comparison tables, so much easier to compare the stats. Thank you.
Seal is much better and I own a Tesla 3. The seal is a better drive and smoother and as he mentioned the space is ample vs the Tesla which is cramped. I’ll be swapping soon
Swapping in your mind.
@@KP-xi4bj You must have tesla stocks as you seem to be attacking everyone who dare criticise your "stock portfolio".
@@ensteffo Nah, the Tesla is the better BEV. Hate Tesla much? LMFAO SMH
Great review! 👍
I test drove both yesterday (BYD Performance and Model 3 Long Range), and tbh I am still having trouble choosing between the two. I can definitely say the Tesla out classes the BYD in refinement and "premium" feeling, however not by much. The BYD does feel noticeably more powerful, it is much easier to drive and get used to (because of the traditional buttons and stalks), the regenerative breaking isn't as harsh as the Tesla's, it's got Android Auto/Apple Car Play, which is honestly a deal breaker for some people. Where the Tesla has the upper hand is just when you sit in both cars, you do notice Tesla just feels more premium, less hard cheap plastics being used, it's autopilot features are lightyears ahead of everyone else and I do feel when we finally get FSD capability, a lot of people will regret not buying a Tesla, but honestly the lack of stalks such and you'll need to get used to it. However, surprisingly, I don't mind swiping the screen for drive and reverse functions. Once I discovered you can get an after-market digital dash for the Tesla (hate looking at the center screen all the time), it made me a lot accepting to buying the Tesla, otherwise, I would have gone BYD for sure, now it's still a hard choice.
Be careful that the after market stuff doesn't void your warranty. Telsa don't like after market products.
need BYD in the U.S.
I own a mode 3, purchased new in 2020, test drove the seal, whilst it looks so much better and lovely interior I can’t go pass you have to break lol I love my model 3 no breaking!!
The intrusion level of driver assist system can be configured from the menu.
Good review. I've ordered a Seal Dynamic. Stepping up to EV from a Commodore, so even the base model is full luxury!
So you have to accept the M3's "quirks" (12:55), like worse performance, worse warranty conditions, no gauge cluster, no stalks, no AA or Apple Car Play, phantom collision warnings, lane assist wrestles, ... and that's why it is clearly the better car? OK TESLA Stan.
The 0-100 time is deceptive - the Tesla is software speed limited up to around 50km/h - after this is quicker than the Seal and quicker over a 1/4 mile. BYD warranty is definitely much worse than Tesla's - there is an extensive list of exclusions from the headline warrany - many items are covered for much less time than the main warranty. There are no "lane assist wrestles" with a model 3 and it suffers far less phantom braking events than the Seal - it's also infinitely less "intrusive" than the seal. A gauge cluster is unneccesary - stalks are a personal choice - the Tesla is clearly a better put together vehicle overall.
Not only that, he said Tesla riding is excellent and byd seal riding is good When I can clearly hear a lot less noise and vibration on the seal and at the same time a faster car, with more comfortable seats and suspension? Get the Tesla if y want to be cooked inside your car during the summer. oh wait, be careful while parallel parking with that digital gear switch

when a reviewer doesn’t talk about battery chemistry and battery capacity, its an instant fail. This guy needs to learn. LFP vs NMC is the difference and the capacity.
99.99% of people watching this video have no interest in a chemistry lesson, they care how far will it go and how fast will it charge? No one ever bothered mentioning the metallurgy of an ICE in reviews. Anyway, the really funny thing is both cars have LFP batteries, so not sure of your point?
Heard from tesla drivers, once ur warranty is over, tesla starts to give problem. U have to spend lots to fix.
Not true at all. Got the group here in Sweden. Wen warranty goes out in a Tesla you own you can connect with Tesla and they will have a look at your car and make a new custom Warren for you to secure your safety for the future with the car.

594L boot space in the Tesla Model 3?! Think someone's messed up there... a quick Google shows 425L 🤔
Quick google LOL - how about looking at offical Tesla website specifications rather than the clear early error made by autoexpress UK that has been cut an pasted all over the place - there is 682L of cargo space in a model 3 between split between the boot and the frunk, it's massive compared to the Seal.
@@TB-up4xi Riiiight... so before the seats are down, a BMW 5 series estate has 570 litres, an Audi Q8 e-tron has 569 litres and a VW ID7 has 532. What you're suggesting is that the significantly smaller Tesla Model 3 has more boot space that all of these. Given the size of the car plus the size of the boot access, I think we can safely say something smells fishy here. Now here's the interesting part: Tesla used to quote 425 litres themselves, and this was then quoted by reviews (not something they just came up with). Now, however, they seem to be quoting 594... curious, given the external dimensions of the vehicle haven't changed for the Highland update, and interior space seems largely identical by all accounts. I wonder how they managed to find another 169 litres? Heaven forbid Tesla be bending the rules a little here and coming up with a way of measuring figures in a way different to most other manufacturers. They wouldn't do that, of course. Never have before, have they? (Nobody mention how they quote 0-62mph with a rolling start, disregarding the ZERO part in the name) Setting aside all sarcasm, I've owned many cars with varying sizes of boot - some smaller, some bigger. I think we can say just from looking at the two cars here that the Tesla is bigger but that it's not almost 150% the size of the BYD's. Just ignore the figures and use a little sense.
@@Henderson10102 They may be measuring differently to other manufacturers - who knows, but my pre-highland model 3 has almost identical storage space to the Highland version and this is considerably more storage space overall than my wife's Volvo XC60 with the seats up, - we have physically uunpacked the Volvo when we planned a trip to Melbourne from Sydney and moved the kit into the model 3 because it didn't all fit in Volvo And I would wager yes, when you add all the spaces together - considering the lack of sub boot and frunk space in the BYD combined with the shallower, narrower and shorter main trunk, the Model 3 would have 50% more space overall. Who knows what the 495L was based on - maybe without the sub trunk or frunk and some older models had large sub-woofers intruding into the trunk space that the base model doesn't have
@@TB-up4xi From what I can tell, the 425 litres excludes the front boot. One review I've found of the updated model, they mention space underneath taking it up to 594 litres. Honestly, I question this more than a little for two reasons. First off, I don't think this "usable space" is really all that usable unless you have a lot of smaller items and rucksacks that ideally fill the volume. You won't be using it for large suitcases or tent bags when going on holiday, furniture when moving house, or other large items that need day to day use (like folded up prams) - that's what the main boot space is used for, and that boot is 425 litres. Second - that's 169 extra litres, which is a heck of a lot of space given what we can see of it and given the not inconsiderable front boot is 88 litres, so you're talking almost double the same space available under the boot floor... something Tesla never mentioned before? Even with slight tweaks and and a smaller subwoofer, that seems too high a figure. But even setting that aside: when you get down to a review like this, showing two clearly similar boots side by side where one seems slightly bigger but then using Tesla's "quoted figured" without questioning or addressing the blatant disparity is wrong. As was your comment about it being something Auto Express made up, given it was a Tesla quoted figure. The Tesla is more practical - simple point of fact. But in a comparison test like this, the figures shown should give viewers accurate context. "How much more practical" is not illustrated here, and the void between the two cars is not that great... something I have been specifically looking into as a potential buyer.
Tesla measurements includes the space under the boot lid. The Seal doesn't. That been said Tesla back boot is still slightly bigger than the seal not by much. frunk however is much bigger.
The fact that the Tesla thought you were driving in Port Phillip Bay is because it wished it was a BYD Seal! 🤣
Saludos al canal bajo mi punto de vista como usuario la función eco de byd seal debería introducir otra función eco plus que desconecte un motor para asi hacerlo más eficiente en casos que estemos muy justo de autonomía o porque no necesitemos la tracción integral por ciudad alargando mucho más la autonomia y la frenada regenerativa a un solo pedal así sería más eficiente para conseguir más autonomia con un simple software.Otra cosa que me gustaria que añadan es la planificación de carga en ruta para poder encontrar donde cargar segun requiera con la autonomía que necesite para llegar a mi destino.Por lo demas felicito a BYD por el gran trabajo que han brindado y excelente trabajo de su equipo de ingenieros
Tesla got no 360⁰ camera. Pls provide more accurate data
Do the windscreen wipers work in the Tesla yet?
Always work
range on cold days? super chargers for the byd? Melbourne to Warnambool and return on a single charge I doubt you can make it back without paying for expensive public charging. Don’t forget the dramatic depreciation over 2 years compared to an ICE car. whatever you save in charging it over a 5 year period you have to factor the extra costs, range anxiety and the battery diminishes range every year.
Mg has the same issue with the lane guidance system. Making a safety system dangerous. Yet they are released to the public, who tests these things ?
Love the Seal, Tesla also has not got vehicle to load capability (V2L).
How often are you going to need V2L though? And you can't use anything that requires an earth plug either on V2L.
A $500 inverter generator from Tractor Supply would do a better job than V2L and not drain you vehicle battery during an extended power outage.
I’m going to hold off on getting a Tesla until they have a head up display…
Great review, loved it.
Port Phillip Bay was wrong...should have been Sydney Harbour.:-)
shouldnt byd sell their PHEV cars first? infrastructure for EV is too poor in aussie
Well, I have not got a problem, I charge on a 7kw 32amp charger when needed with AGL EV nightsaver plan 0.08 cents per KW. I have no issues, only when travelling long distances which does not occur weekly then its fine. Even in long distances preplanning with the NAV is easy to determine the charge points.
BYD, is still tied to dealership model, it’s not as safe, not as fast. Not as efficient, not as connected and a significant amount heavier. Has a shorter warranty, Still uses a key fob and doesn’t have auto pilot. The model 3 has global success due to some incredible engineering and features, but people don’t understand that just because the Tesla has a minimal interior, it by no means lacks substance. But no, it doesn’t have a heads up display.
I test drove both the base Seal and the standard 2024 Model 3, both are good cars but I preferred the Seal by a long shot. The Tesla was bordering on minimalism taken too far. Also the glass roof on the Seal looked more impressive (one peice) and didn't get as hot as the Tesla. I'd go Seal as a first EV.
I would like to see a real range Aussie test between the model 3 and byd seal. This to be a mix of city and country driving.
Obviously EV's are unsuitable for country driving in Australia. When I go for a ride on my bike just 2 hours out of Perth I sometimes can't even find the premium petrol which is recommended for it. Good luck finding EV chargers.
Wow, so much credit given to Tesla's low rent cabin. It has less leg room, material is Kia level and is noisier than the Seal inside. Im shopping between the two and test drove the Seal, which doesn’t have any of the intrusive assistance mentioned. All negatives can be updated via software i suppose. It's all about cost cutting for Tesla now and I know ill definitely be getting the Seal. 😂
My big question. Can I fit my golf clubs in the boot without having to remove my driver from the bag?
By the way, in my country the seal does 0 to 100km in 3.8 sec. Maybe in your country it comes with a different engine.
Tesla all the way to me. Have had many Porsches, still have an Aircooled 911. I am very happy with the Tesla model X and 3P. User friendly, efficient and quite enjoyable to drive. N
What’s the BYD supercharger network like?
There is none. Only Tesla has their own supercharging network.
No charging pods provisioned in my apartment so it makes no sense to get electric car until infrastructure gets readily available 😊
Tesla losing a lot of money as well due to no right hand drive which is stupid. 🙄🚶♂️

These ironic (electric) sedans with RWD are obsolete family cars long after the so-called Falcon and Commodore RWD family sedans are history while we have cheaper FWD hatchbacks and 4WD sport utility vehicles.
The Tesla model 3 was the 3rd highest selling vehcile and number 1 privately purchased vehcile in Australia in Feb 2024 (if you exclude governement and commerical fleet purchases of the Ranger and Hilux).
The obsession with large 4WD cars in Australia needs to end, those times have passed, whether you like it or not.
Welcome to Malaise Era II when gas-guzzling SUV and diesel guzzling ute will be old-fashioned and cue the outmoded sedans & wagons into electric cars.
Glad you mentioned the rear seats. I’m 5’10 and struggle getting into the model 3. Here’s some additions for people to consider: Seal door handles have that silly pop out feature. People should do the door clunk test on both cars. Model 3 back seats feel like an overused taxi.
home ev is 7p kwh to charge but octopus energy increases the day rate plus standing charge and so people who only have electric home heating and cooking wil get huge electricity bills, energy companies still robbing people who have home ev charging and is "Never" cheap, i thought rich people were intelligent not to get robbed and know their maths, you can afford a tesla because you have a big private pension, shares and get paid by your subcribers, but we ordinary low paid people can never afford a decent ev like tesla because our parents, ancestors never stole wealth we tax payers pay for infrastructure and these companies rip us off with high prices
I'm sure that many owners of nice cars were able to do so from their own hard work and not because they had parents that "stole wealth"
What a ridiculous comment
I think the Seal looks better, and is cheaper but there's no denying the M3 is simply superior.
Tesla should repositioning the gear selections, too risky...it happened in the US 😢
Tesla is cheaper in Sweden. Byd cost a lot and byd also don’t have many service places. They also don’t have any real support after you buy the car. They just don’t care about you after you bought the car. Tesla is with you 24/7 after you bought the car
@@tommylou77😂😂😂😂
wth, it is 'superior' only if you want a completely nothing interior. it compares every aspect and seal is superior
Seal is quieter and cooler than our Shanghai M3 RWD LFP and longer range for less and is cluttered beautifully.
The sound system alone would make me buy the Tesla Model 3 over the Seal. The Model 3 is an incredible value for money, impossible to beat IMHO.
The tesla looks better in my opinion...More reliable car and years of EV experience.
Also, saying that telsas drive really nice is total bullshit, A 2020 Toyota corolla,/camry,/markx etc drive a 100times better in terms of feeling, steering line and comfort. Dunno about the seal, but options like a cheap tablet in the back in a terrible spot of the tesla does not excite anyone with half a brain.
Tesla hands down. Byd computer is basic
How come no one mentions the lack of roof cover for both cars. I have been inside both during a semi hot day and it is so hot that you need to open the doors and let it cool down. It's the worst feature no one comments on. With kids it makes it that much worse. I don't want a swooping sun roof. And if I do I should be able to close it off with a solid cover.
There is roof cover for the Seal which comes with the car. he also failed to mention the silver coated glass roof of the Seal which is at least 10C cooler than the Model 3. look up ludicrous feed on youtube. he compared both cars in much finer detail. also split screen comparison driving on the same stretch of road. you can hear the difference on the road noise back to back.
You can buy roof shades for the Model 3 for $60 from memory, just isn't a big deal. The Seal comes with them. Also the Tesla allows you to vent your windows via the App, whilst both allow you to start the air conditioner prior to you getting back to the car. So in fact they are both superior to normal cars.
say, argue etc any nmw s k, doesn tmatter, no such thign as start or not
To me the Seal still feels like a ICE car on the inside, with lots of buttons and clutter. Innovation with technology should feel different when in the car + software support. Something the Seal has only recently got in terms of over the air updates. Diving a Tesla is a paradigm shift generally speaking, and granted most people can be resistant to change with some features in both cars not for everybody. Either way, both cars are fantastic when compared to some others out there. Each time I get into my 4x4, I need to remind myself of things I simply now take for granted in the Tesla.
If it is a Toyota no wonder.
Byd good, so is 3

Feels like Apple vs. Android. BYD has tons of bells and whistles but just not as well executed, Model 3 is just much more refined at this point. I would love to test drive the BYD and the new Xiaomi SU7. The new Model 3 is excellent however, Having owned an 2023 Model 3 and test driven the 2024, it's a very nice improvement.
BYD is making strides but not there yet. The software isn't great, and the driver assist scares me enough not to buy, yet.
BYD software looks ancient compared to the Tesla
It's a car not a computer
buy the white mans car
Everyone complaining about no stalks. My lambo technica has no stalks and has the indicators on the steering wheel. I’ve placed an order for the model 3 performance but test drove the m3 long range and the byd. Byd feels cheap. Even if it is the same price. The Tesla is just a car that works and feels a lot more premium than the byd. I’m actually excited for the m3 performance to come. I’m pretty sure in acceleration it’s quicker than my lambo and that’s real exciting for a 5 seater
If i was forced at gunpoint, id go the chinese one. WhY? Because id rather have the chinese one than the stupid poorly built tesla, both ugly and look like stylised sex toys, not vehicles. The tesla is boring, bland, and looks cheap and junky inside. You paying soooo much for the tesla, for what? a crappy tv screen and no useful buttons.
byd 300kg heavier, and way less efficient. what were they thinking?
its irrelevant if the car has a bigger battery. You still get more range no matter how efficient the tesla is
It’s due to the battery which is superior to the Tesla
@@tonypaca3015seems like a waste of lithium.
@@mustangxcos its bigger? lol
Lfp battery on all seal. Less energy density so to make it 83.5kwh it’s gonna be heavier than tesla nmc. However lfp hv longer lifespan, can charge to 100%all the time with minimal effect.
No wonder BYD is winning on the market share in China, this car is far much better than Tesla in every aspect.
Made In Chi Na 💩
Both are made in china ❤🇨🇳
Always Tesla, best car ever
Hahaha. I have a tesla 3 and took the seal for a couple days. Sorry but the seal is better overall. Quieter, smoother and range is superior. The Tesla has a better infotainment system and personally I think looks sleeker but overall I have to rate the seal above
yeah but i also dont want to put up with byds dogshit UI that looks like it came out of the bottom pits of chineese phone companies like what is that disgusting shit @@mustangx
NO.
Elon vs the Chinese. Good luck Chinese. I've driven both and BYD are still a couple of years behind Tesla. Clunky interfaces, too many physical buttons and the UI is shite. However, Tesla will need to seriously improve their products in leaps and bounds in order to keep the Chinese at bay.
Tesla uses byd batteries
Boring review mate.
Its a shame chinese copy everything from Lego to Tesla
So, every car manufacturer after Ford is just a copy cat? In addition, the Seal has been around since 2022, THIS VERSION of Model 3 has been around for 2 months, maybe? How can BYD copy something that came after it?
Disgusting racism
very great, much detail video thankyou
