The interior of the refreshed BYD Seagull has been exposed in China, showcasing a completely redesigned cabin. Spy shots reveal a dual-layer center console with a sloped design that maximizes lower storage space, while a single center-mounted touchscreen infotainment display replaces the traditional driver's dashboard. The steering wheel has been updated with angular "squircle" buttons, and physical controls remain below the center air vents. The car retains its current marine blue theme with new red accent detailing on the seat bolster sides. This refresh comes as the Seagull has lost its crown as China's best-selling vehicle to competitors like Geely EX2 and Leapmotor B03X, and these improvements may be crucial to revive its market presence.
