Where the Seal 5 DM-i stands

By starting price the BYD Seal 5 DM-i is the 9th least expensive of 39 sedans in our catalogue, which puts it in the more affordable third of the category (the range runs from ₱698,888 to ₱24,990,000). Its output of 163 PS is below the 196 PS median for sedans we list. Shoppers looking at this sedan usually also consider the Geely Emgrand, Toyota ATIV, Suzuki Dzire Hybrid and Honda City. Of those, the Toyota ATIV is the least expensive at ₱916,000 and the Changan Nevo A05 the most expensive at ₱1,195,000. There is a ₱250,000 gap between the entry Essential and the top Premium (pre-facelift) grade, so it is worth checking which features you would actually use.

The facelifted New Seal 5 DM-i launched in July 2026 in Essential and Dynamic grades with a 7.42 kWh Blade battery and BYD's fifth-generation Super DM-i system.
The November 2026 price list still carries the pre-facelift Seal 5 DM-i Dynamic (8.3 kWh) and Premium (18.3 kWh) alongside the new model.
BYD quotes a combined range of up to 1,600 km for the new model on a full 65 L tank and full charge.
