Pros & Cons

GLA Pros & Cons	Seal Pros & Cons	Ioniq 5 Pros & Cons
Pros	Good Ride Quality Looks Better Than Before Well Priced	BYD Seal comes with an impressive range of 510 km to 650 km. One of the most sporty-looking EVs under Rs 55 lakh in India. Loaded with a plethora of features such as a panoramic sunroof, 15.6-inch rotatable touchscreen infotainment, height adjustable cup holders, ventilated seats, and more. One of the fastest EVs with 0-100 kmph time of 3.8 seconds. Fast charging time of 0% to 80% within 45 mins Well-equipped with level 2 ADAS, 360-degree camera, multiple airbags, and other safety features Boasts 5-Star Euro NCAP Crash Test Rating	Bold and futuristic design language with 20” alloys Comes with segment-first features like Vehicle-to-Load technology Provides an ample range of 631 km (claimed) but in real life, it would return more than 550 km Comes equipped with level 2 ADAS for added safety. Comes with a Bose sound system for a rich and premium experience for music enthusiasts Comes in an RWD variant which can be fun to drive for an enthusiast.
Cons	Not too capable off the road Regular variants not very powerful	Less brand awareness and Chinese manufacturer status. The performance variant is priced over Rs 50 lakh. Fewer sales and service networks across the nation A lot of technology integrated into the cabin could potentially result in a less user-friendly user interface	The upholstery in the cabin is light shade which can be difficult to maintain. The space in the frunk could have been more. The turning radius is quite more than expected
