Better Highway Cruising Comfort on Expressways
The Seal's 570 km WLTP range in the Premium variant makes it ideal for longer expressway journeys. However, the factory suspension can transmit road imperfections more noticeably at highway speeds, particularly with the 2,055 kg weight pressing down on the suspension. Profender's progressive spring rates and adjustable damping absorb highway expansion joints and pavement irregularities more effectively, creating a calmer, more refined cruising experience.
Enhanced Body Control During Lane Changes
The Seal's low 1,460mm height and 2,920mm wheelbase create a sporty profile, but quick lane changes on expressways can reveal the limits of factory suspension body control, especially in the heavier Performance AWD variant at 2,185 kg. Profender car suspension provides better damping control, reducing body roll and maintaining more stable, predictable handling during direction changes.
Improved Ride Quality Over Urban Imperfections
Despite its premium positioning, Singapore's city roads feature patches, uneven surfaces, and imperfections that can transmit through the cabin. The factory suspension, optimized for global markets, doesn't always handle Singapore's specific road conditions ideally. Profender suspension's 16-way adjustable damping allows owners to fine-tune for local road characteristics, reducing harshness over bumps while maintaining responsive handling.
Better Composure with Passengers on Long Journeys
The Seal's 2,920mm wheelbase provides generous rear legroom, making it practical for carrying passengers on longer trips. When fully loaded with passengers and luggage in the 400L boot, the factory suspension can feel less settled. Profender's adjustable damping lets owners optimize settings based on load, ensuring comfort whether driving solo or with a full complement of passengers.
Reduced Floating Sensation at Speed
Some Seal owners report a floating sensation at highway speeds, particularly in the RWD variants. This characteristic can make long expressway drives feel less composed than expected from a premium electric sedan. Profender car suspension's improved damping control helps keep the Seal more planted and stable at speed, reducing the disconnected feeling some owners experience.
Tropical Climate Durability for Premium Vehicle Standards
At the Seal's premium price point, owners expect components that maintain performance over time in Singapore's tropical climate. Profender car suspension systems feature zinc-coated components tested to ISO 9227 standards for over 240 hours, providing superior corrosion resistance compared to factory coatings, ensuring the suspension maintains its refinement over the vehicle's lifespan.

Frequently Asked Questions – BYD Seal Profender Car Suspension
Most Seal owners who switch to Profender car suspension cite improved highway cruising comfort on Singapore expressways, better body control during lane changes, and enhanced overall refinement befitting the Seal's premium positioning. The factory suspension works adequately but doesn't fully optimize comfort for the Seal's substantial 2,055-2,185 kg weight across Singapore's varied road conditions. Owners seeking a more refined, planted driving experience often find Profender suspension delivers the improvement they're looking for.
Properly installed and adjusted Profender car suspension should not negatively impact the Seal's impressive 570 km WLTP range (Premium variant). The suspension maintains proper ride height and geometry, preserving the vehicle's low 0.219 Cd drag coefficient. Some owners report slightly improved efficiency due to better tire contact patch management and reduced suspension movement, though range primarily depends on driving style and conditions.
Yes. Profender car suspension systems are engineered to handle the Performance variant's 2,185 kg weight and 390 kW dual-motor output. The adjustable damping allows owners to optimize settings for spirited driving while maintaining comfort during daily use. The suspension works effectively with the Seal's iTAC (Intelligent Torque Adaption Control) system and can handle the Performance variant's 3.8-second 0-100 km/h acceleration without compromising stability or control.
Yes. The 16-way adjustable damping system allows you to fine-tune compression and rebound at each corner. This versatility suits the Seal's dual nature as both a comfortable cruiser and capable performance sedan. You can set softer damping for highway comfort or firmer settings for more responsive handling during spirited driving. Your installer will demonstrate adjustment procedures and recommend starting points based on your typical driving scenarios.
The BYD Seal's Cell-to-Body (CTB) technology integrates the battery pack into the vehicle structure, creating exceptional torsional rigidity of 40,500 Nm/deg. Profender car suspension is designed to work with this rigid platform, using the structural advantages to deliver improved damping control and more precise suspension behavior. The combination of CTB rigidity and Profender's adjustable damping creates a more refined, controlled ride than factory suspension alone can provide.
Suspension modifications generally do not void your entire vehicle warranty, but could affect warranty claims on suspension-related components. It's advisable to check with your BYD dealer about specific warranty implications. Profender car suspension comes with its own 1-year/30,000km warranty through Syncrowerkz Sdn Bhd, providing coverage for the upgraded components.
