Estimated prices by model year in Germany, from its price when new and typical EV depreciation, and the real-world range you can expect today after about 2% battery wear a year. These are estimates, not valuations: mileage, condition and battery health make a big difference.

Summary
The BYD SEAL 61.4 kWh RWD Comfort (MY23-25) is a 5-seat saloon with rear-wheel drive, sold new from 2025 to 2026, when it cost €46,990 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 7.5 seconds, slower than 64% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 227 miles (365 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 36% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 47th of 48 saloons.
It uses around 3.7 mi/kWh (168 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 61.4 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 75 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 239 miles (384 km) at motorway speeds.
It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.
Second-hand in Germany, a 2025 example is estimated at €26,800–€30,500 and a 2026 one at €26,800–€30,500, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 222 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
