Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

BYD Sealion 7
- SUV coupe styling is executed well, looks much more expensive than it actually is.
- 82.56kWh battery capacity ensures a real world range of 500km.
- Impeccable interior quality for the price. Soft touch material used generously on the dashboard and door pads.
- Features: 15.6” touchscreen, 10.25” driver’s display, panoramic glass roof, Level 2 ADAS — it has it all.
Toyota Hilux
- Modern, imposing design: The redesigned face and brawnier stance look fresher and more aggressive without losing the Hilux's tough character.
- Big cabin upgrade: A completely redesigned, chunky dashboard and a far more comfortable, big-person-friendly driving position.
- Improved ride comfort: Toyota has taken a good amount of sharpness out of the ride, most noticeably in the front row.
- Effortless engine: The proven 2.8-litre diesel is torquey and relaxed, now paired with a smoother, more polished automatic.
- Serious off-road hardware: Ladder-frame chassis, low-range 4x4, rear diff lock and a full suite of traction electronics.

BYD Sealion 7
- Ride quality feels firm. Does not feel very comfortable over broken roads.
- Lacks the brand value/prestige many expect from a vehicle costing as much.
Toyota Hilux
- Bulky in the city: Heavy low-speed steering and a 5,325 mm length make tight traffic and parking a chore.
- Still firm over big hits: Sharp speed breakers and deep potholes still send a strong jolt through the cabin.
- Compromised rear seat: An upright, non-reclining backrest, a high floor and no rear AC vents make the back bench a poor place for family.
- Under-equipped for the price: Manual AC, a manual-dimming mirror, fabric seats and no ADAS on a truck costing around Rs 35-40 lakh on-road.
