The BYD Seal is one of the best-value electric sedans you can buy in 2026 — a Tesla Model 3 rival with up to ~610 km of range, the safety of BYD’s Blade Battery, and a genuinely premium cabin. Imported factory-direct from China, it starts from 92,293 with Jedda Star. Here’s the full picture: price, specs, the version we stock, and how to import one to the UAE.
BYD Seal price in the UAE
Imported factory-direct, the BYD Seal starts from 92,293 (the Seal 07 EV 610) — before shipping and the ~10% UAE taxes, which our landed-cost calculator works out for you. That’s well below what a comparable European electric sedan costs locally, because you skip the dealer markup. See the current BYD Seal listing →

Why buy a BYD Seal?
The Seal is the car that proved Chinese EVs could compete at the top. It pairs Tesla Model 3-rivalling range and performance with a more upmarket interior, at a lower price — especially imported factory-direct. For UAE buyers, the Blade Battery’s heat tolerance and BYD’s long battery warranty make it a confident long-term choice.
