On May 26, the "High-Energy Ultra-Enjoyable SUV" under BYD Ocean Network—the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i—was launched with comprehensive upgraded strength, with an official guide price range of RMB 129,900 to RMB 159,900. From now on, users can enjoy multiple car-purchase benefits, including the Strength Renewal Gift, Strength Smart Connectivity Gift, Strength Worry-Free Gift, and Strength Charging Gift. With the support of the fifth-generation DM technology, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i achieves dual upgrades in range and energy consumption, and has been comprehensively renewed across four major dimensions: intelligence, appearance, comfort, and driving control. With a disruptive plug-in hybrid travel experience of "0 fuel consumption for pure electric commuting, 0 anxiety for long journeys," it once again refreshes the value benchmark in its class and becomes the best choice for high-quality travel for families and urban elite users.
Technology Empowerment, 310 km Pure Electric Range Expands the Daily Travel Boundaries of Plug-In Hybrid SUVs
Empowered by the leading fifth-generation DM technology, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i achieves breakthrough upgrades in the two core indicators of range and energy consumption. The new model's CLTC pure electric range rises to a maximum of 310 km, which means that for the vast majority of urban commuters, charging only once a week is enough to achieve daily pure electric travel. Even for long-distance travel, its NEDC fuel consumption at low battery is as low as 3.3L per 100 km, and its comprehensive range with a full tank and full charge reaches up to 1,845 kilometers. This golden combination of longer range and lower fuel consumption appears especially practical at a time when oil prices continue to rise. It not only significantly reduces users' travel costs, but also completely eliminates range anxiety for long journeys, allowing users to expand their life radius at will and fully enjoy worry-free trips.
Advanced Intelligent Control, Refreshing a New All-Scenario Intelligent Travel Experience
In the wave of intelligence, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i creates a convenient travel experience for users through forward-looking technology. The new model supports the optional installation of the God's Eye B - Advanced Intelligent Driving Laser Edition (DiPilot 300), providing all-scenario assisted driving functions including City Navigation Assist (CNOA), Highway Navigation Assist (HNOA), traffic light recognition and real-time countdown, interactive passage, and roundabout driving, making every trip easier and more reassuring. At the same time, it comes with the high-end intelligent cockpit version - DiLink150, combined with a new UI interface and deeply customized Amap, creating a new intelligent and convenient human-vehicle interaction experience.
In terms of driving control, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i is equipped with the Cloud Chassis-C intelligent damping body control system and adds a new road preview function. The system can identify abnormal road conditions such as manhole covers and speed bumps in advance and actively adjust the chassis suspension damping coefficient, achieving a perfect balance between handling and comfort. In addition, the new model thoughtfully adds an anti-motion sickness mode, which, through the triple coordinated optimization of chassis, environment, and power, alleviates ride discomfort from the root and makes family travel more comfortable and pleasant. In terms of safety, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i is equipped with a high-speed tire blowout stability system. When a tire blowout occurs at a maximum speed of 140 km/h, the system can respond in milliseconds and maintain body stability, escorting every trip.
Comfort Renewal, Creating a New Realm of the Senses with Class-Leading Luxury
To meet users' ever-increasing demand for quality of life, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i reveals luxury style in every detail. The newly added Liuguang Silver exterior color and Twilight Blue interior color give the vehicle a more textured and personalized visual expression. In-car comfort configurations have also achieved comprehensive upgrades. The newly added front-row seat memory function maximizes the sense of ceremony when getting seated, while the front-row seat massage function and front passenger leg rest allow the front passenger to lie back at any time on long journeys, effectively relieving fatigue. The newly added intelligent fragrance system creates a fresh and tranquil private atmosphere in the cabin, elevating every trip into a quality enjoyment. Moreover, the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i adheres to the concept of "luxury from the entry level," providing users with more than 130 "standard across the entire series" features, reshaping the value model of mid-size plug-in hybrid SUVs with uncompromising all-around strength.
Summary:
The launch of the 2026 Sea Lion 06DM-i is a profound insight into future high-quality travel and a timely response to users' growing needs. With comprehensively leading strength, it will lead the mid-size plug-in hybrid SUV market to a new height. The new car has arrived at major BYD Ocean Network stores.
