BYD is rapidly expanding its local lineup, and the Seal 6 slots in as a new plug-in hybrid (PHEV) passenger car lineup.

Available as either a sedan or wagon (Touring), the Seal 6 is now available to order. Priced at $34,990 before on-road costs in sedan guise or $39,990 before on-roads as a wagon, the Seal 6 is Australia’s cheapest PHEV sedan and wagon.

Not only that, but the Seal 6 sedan is $5000 cheaper than the similarly sized Toyota Camry, which uses a conventional hybrid powertrain.

It narrowly misses out on being the cheapest PHEV of any kind Down Under, with another BYD – the Sealion 5 Essential medium SUV – undercutting it by just $1000.

The Seal 6 Touring is not only Australia’s cheapest PHEV wagon, but also the cheapest wagon of any kind offered here.

While there’s a significant $5000 jump in price over the sedan, this brings more power, more equipment, and greater electric range.
