I found Select Car leasing after being let down by 2 other lease companies making promises about delivery dates that they had no intention of keeping which put me in a position where I needed a Car ASAP. I made Jamie Di-Folco aware that I needed my order expedited and he was more than happy to help me out and cracked on straight away setting everything up. He went above and beyond my expectations and before I knew it my new car was getting delivered saving me from public transport! Highly recommend Select Car Leasing and Jamie.

About the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon
The BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon might have a rather long-winded name, but it’s a compelling lease car that straddles the gap between fully-electric vehicles and those with a petrol engine.
A sibling to the electric BYD Seal, the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon is a plug-in hybrid that offers a range of up to 65 miles using nothing but electricity. That 65-mile figure increases to 87 miles in city use.
A 1.5-litre petrol engine works in conjunction with a battery and electric motor to reduce CO2 emissions to as low as 34 g/km.
The ‘DM-i’ suffix, by the way, stands for ‘Intelligent Dual Mode’ - as the PHEV system combines the refinement and responsiveness of EV driving with the flexibility of a petrol-electric powertrain.
Why lease the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon?
The Seal 6 DM-i Saloon sits in BYD’s range alongside the fully-electric BYD Seal and the plug-in hybrid BYD Seal U DM-i.
The Seal 6 isn’t as powerful as its stablemates, so if you’re looking for outright performance you’ll need to check out those cars instead.
But where the Seal 6 DM-i Saloon succeeds is in balancing modest pace with an extended EV range between charges - up to 65 miles in mixed use.
If you’re looking for even greater practicality, have a look at the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring estate instead.

BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon Frequently Asked Questions
The BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon is a plug-in hybrid that represents something unique in the leasing market - being one of the cheapest Saloon PHEVs available while undercutting rivals like the Audi A5 e-Hybrid Saloon and equivalent BMW 3 Series by some distance. It’s a sibling car to the fully-electric BYD Seal and the two vehicles share common styling, including a distinctive ‘X’ shaped front end.
The BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon is offered in both ‘Boost’ and ‘Comfort’ grades. The Comfort cars boast a larger battery, more power, and an extended EV driving range (up to 65 miles on a single charge). The entry-level Boost trim is generous and features a 12.8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a reversing camera.
The electric-only driving range of the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon varies depending on which variant you choose to lease. The Boost version has an EV driving range of up to 34 miles on a single charge, while the Comfort grade (which has a larger battery) ups that figure to 65 miles (for mixed driving conditions - the figure is larger, at 87 miles, for city driving).
All versions of the BYD Seal 6 DM-i Saloon are powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine that works in conjunction with a battery and electric motor - which drive the front wheels. Power ranges between 184 PS to 212 PS, depending on which model you opt for, while performance is modest, with 0-62mph acceleration taking place in a max of 8.5 seconds.
Entry-level Boost variants are equipped with a 3.3 kW on-board charger that can replenish the energy in the battery from 15-80% in 3 hours. The range-topping Comfort trim adds a more powerful 6.6 kW on-board charger which reduces that AC charge time down to 2.7 hours. The Comfort grade also introduces rapid DC charging at 26 kW, which supports a 30-80% charge in 23 minutes.
