BYD debuted the Sealion 6 - its first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle for India - on June 9, priced at approximately Rs 35–45 lakh (~$42,000–$54,000). The model uses BYD's DM-i Super Plug-in Hybrid powertrain, which claims a combined driving range of over 1,200 kilometres by prioritising the electric motor for urban commutes and switching to petrol for extended highway range - a formula targeted at Indian buyers hesitant to commit to pure EVs amid the country's still-developing fast-charging network.
