BYD SEAL NIGHT DRIVE INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL TEST PARKING SENSORS

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive night drive test of the BYD Seal, focusing on its Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) and parking sensor capabilities. The reviewer, BYD Tom, highlights that the Seal is the 'Premium' trim level. While generally satisfied with the parking sensors, noting their accuracy in measuring distance to walls, he found the ICC and lane centering to be less refined than Tesla's Autopilot, particularly on city curves. The reviewer experienced the car veering off-lane and noted the need for more manual input. He also discussed the indicator sound, preferring the traditional 'tick-tock' over the electronic 'beep' and expressing hope for refinement. The ADAS system is identified as a current issue, with expectations for a software update in early 2024 to improve its performance and safety ratings. Despite some criticisms of the autonomous driving features, the reviewer found the overall night driving experience satisfactory, with good lighting and ambient lighting.
