Deepal S07 vs BYD Sealion 7: Detailed Comparison for Pakistan

The S07 is slightly cheaper, more compact and has a technology-heavy cabin, while its officially listed 165 mm ground clearance is worth noticing on Pakistani roads. The Sealion 7 counters with a significantly larger battery, stronger motor, more luggage space and a longer claimed driving range.

For Pakistani buyers, those differences matter more than simply comparing horsepower. Daily traffic, speed breakers, summer air-conditioning, motorway driving, home charging, public charger availability and after-sales support all affect which SUV makes more sense.

Deepal's official Pakistan brochure confirms a 66.8 kWh NMC battery, 190 kW motor, 320 Nm torque, 485 km NEDC range and rear-wheel drive. BYD Pakistan confirms the Sealion 7's 82.56 kWh battery, 567 km claimed range and 6.7-second acceleration.

Price in Pakistan: A Relatively Small Difference

Deepal Pakistan currently advertises the S07 at PKR 14,999,000, with freight and CVT included. Its website also advertises a free 7 kW wall-mounted charger as a limited-time offer.

The BYD Sealion 7 Advanced is currently listed at PKR 15,490,000 ex-factory in Pakistan.

That creates a headline difference of roughly PKR 491,000, although the two figures are not perfectly like-for-like because Deepal explicitly includes freight and CVT in its advertised amount.

At this price level, the difference itself should probably not decide the purchase. The Sealion 7 brings a larger battery, more motor output and more luggage space. The S07 costs slightly less and provides a confirmed 165 mm ground-clearance figure.

EVraah's best electric cars in Pakistan for 2026 provides useful context if you are comparing these SUVs with other EVs around this price bracket.

Size, Ground Clearance and Practicality

These are both fairly large five-seat SUVs.

The S07 measures 4,750 mm long, 1,930 mm wide and 1,625 mm tall, with a 2,900 mm wheelbase. Its Pakistan brochure lists 165 mm ground clearance and 20-inch wheels with 255/45 R20 tyres.

The Sealion 7 is longer at 4,830 mm, almost identical in width at 1,925 mm, and has a slightly longer 2,930 mm wheelbase.

That extra length is worth thinking about if you regularly use tight basement parking, older commercial areas or narrow residential streets.

Ground clearance is one area where the comparison needs caution. BYD Pakistan does not currently publish a clearance figure on its local Sealion 7 page. The equivalent international RWD specification lists at least 140 mm when fully laden, but that should be treated as reference information rather than automatically assumed to be the Pakistan-market measurement.

For luggage, the BYD has the clearer advantage on published figures. BYD Pakistan lists 520 litres in the rear, 58 litres in the front trunk and 1,789 litres with the rear seats folded.

Current Pakistan specifications put the S07's boot at approximately 445 litres.

Performance: More Power, Similar 0–100 Time

The S07's rear-mounted permanent-magnet motor produces 190 kW and 320 Nm. Deepal also quotes 0–100 km/h in 6.7 seconds for the Pakistan-spec vehicle.

The Sealion 7's matching RWD drivetrain produces 230 kW and 380 Nm, while BYD Pakistan quotes the same 6.7-second 0–100 km/h time.

That tells you something useful: additional motor output does not automatically translate into a dramatically quicker launch. Vehicle weight, gearing, tyre grip and power delivery all play a part.

In normal Pakistani traffic, both are already quick enough. The Sealion 7's extra power is more likely to be noticed during higher-speed acceleration, motorway overtaking or when the SUV is carrying passengers and luggage.

Both vehicles are rear-wheel drive, which also gives them a different driving layout from many lower-priced front-wheel-drive EVs.

Battery and Range: The Biggest Technical Difference

The battery is where these two SUVs separate most clearly.

The S07 uses a 66.8 kWh CATL ternary-lithium NMC battery and carries an official 485 km NEDC range claim.

The Sealion 7 uses BYD's 82.56 kWh Blade Battery, based on LFP chemistry. BYD Pakistan advertises up to 567 km of range. The corresponding international RWD specification identifies that figure as NEDC and also publishes 482 km WLTC.

On the same NEDC basis, the claimed difference is 82 km.

That does not mean every Pakistani driver will see exactly 82 km more from the BYD. Actual range changes with:

• Motorway speed
• Air-conditioning use
• Summer temperature
• Elevation
• Passenger and luggage load
• Tyre pressure
• Driving style

A 485 km brochure range in city-style testing is not the same thing as driving 485 km continuously at motorway speed.

The larger Sealion 7 battery does, however, give it a bigger theoretical energy reserve for intercity travel.

The two SUVs also use different battery chemistries. EVraah's LFP vs NMC battery guide explains the practical differences in charging, heat behaviour and degradation without treating either chemistry as universally superior.

Charging: What the Numbers Mean in Real Ownership

Deepal quotes 30–80% DC charging in about 35 minutes for the S07. Its current Pakistan offer also includes a 7 kW home wall charger, though that promotion can change.

BYD Pakistan quotes 30–80% in around 30 minutes for the Sealion 7. The equivalent RWD international specification supports up to 11 kW AC and 150 kW DC charging. Because BYD Pakistan does not publish all of those maximum-power figures on its local vehicle page, buyers should confirm the exact charging specification supplied locally.

The five-minute brochure difference should not be overinterpreted.

Public charging speed depends on:

• Charger output
• Battery temperature
• Starting state of charge
• Charging curve
• Station condition

A 150 kW-capable car will not automatically charge at 150 kW on every Pakistani charger.

For most owners, home charging will still cover the majority of everyday use. EVraah's home EV charging guide for Pakistan explains wallbox installation and electrical considerations.

Before relying on public stations, the EV charging connector guide is also worth checking.

Interior and Technology

The S07 has one of the more technology-focused cabins in this price range.

Pakistan-spec equipment includes a 15.6-inch Sunflower touchscreen, AR head-up display, wireless Apple CarPlay, 14-speaker audio system, panoramic roof, 40W wireless charger and rear touchscreen controls for selected cabin functions.

The Sealion 7 takes a more traditional premium-SUV approach. BYD Pakistan highlights Nappa leather seats, a head-up display, panoramic roof, seat-memory functions, 128-colour ambient lighting, wireless charging and a 12-speaker Dynaudio audio system.

This section is difficult to decide from specifications alone.

During a test drive, check how easy it is to adjust climate control, access cameras, use navigation and change basic vehicle settings while moving. A larger screen is only useful if the interface remains easy to operate.

Rear-seat comfort also matters if the SUV will regularly carry family members rather than primarily one or two occupants.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Deepal's Pakistan brochure lists a comprehensive ADAS package including:

• Adaptive cruise control
• Autonomous emergency braking
• Lane-keeping assistance
• Blind-spot detection
• Rear cross-traffic warning and braking
• Lane-change assist
• Driver monitoring
• 360-degree camera with transparent-chassis view

The same Pakistan material promotes a five-star C-NCAP safety rating for the S07.

The BYD Sealion 7 also has a strong independent international safety record. ANCAP awarded it five stars in its 2025 assessment, which applies to the variants covered by the Australian/New Zealand programme. Standard safety equipment listed by ANCAP includes multiple airbags, autonomous emergency braking and lane-support systems.

That ANCAP result is not a Pakistan-specific crash test, but it remains useful independent evidence about the Sealion 7 platform.

Pakistani Ownership: Tyres, Service and Warranty

Tyres deserve attention before buying either SUV.

The S07 uses 255/45 R20 tyres. The matching RWD Sealion 7 specification uses 19-inch tyres, including 235/50 R19 at the front.

Do not assume replacement tyres will always be inexpensive or immediately available. Ask the dealer what brands and sizes are stocked locally.

Deepal operates an official dealership network in Pakistan, while BYD-MMC has its own local sales and support network.

Deepal's Pakistan brochure lists an 8-year/240,000 km battery warranty for the S07.

The Sealion 7's Pakistan material lists:

• 6 years/150,000 km vehicle warranty
• 8 years/160,000 km Blade Battery warranty
• 6 years/150,000 km low-voltage LFP battery warranty

Long-term resale is still difficult to judge because Pakistan does not yet have years of used-market history for either model.

Which Type of Buyer Should Consider Each?

Long-Distance Driving in Pakistan

Battery capacity is only part of road-trip practicality. Charger location matters just as much.

Before taking either SUV on frequent motorway journeys, check EVraah's Pakistan motorway EV charging guide.

You can also build the journey around charging stops with the EVraah Route Planner and check nearby stations on the EVraah charging map.

A sensible motorway plan should leave battery reserve and include a backup charging option rather than assuming every station will be available exactly when required.

Final Buying Takeaway

The Deepal S07 vs BYD Sealion 7 decision comes down to two different ownership priorities.

The S07 costs slightly less, has a confirmed 165 mm ground-clearance figure and puts cabin technology front and centre. The Sealion 7 costs more but gives you a substantially larger battery, greater published luggage capacity, stronger power figures and more claimed range.

Before booking either one, test the SUV over roads similar to your daily route, ask for the complete warranty terms in writing, check replacement tyre availability and map the chargers you would depend on for intercity travel.

Those practical checks will tell you far more about living with either EV in Pakistan than simply choosing the one with the biggest number on the specification sheet.
