England Rugby ace Chandler Cunningham-South has touched down with a new top-of-the-range BYD Seal.
The rising star collected his £45,000 all-electric vehicle from Alan Day Motor Group’s BYD New Southgate showroom, joining an impressive roster of celebrity BYD drivers.
Chandler, 21, known for his agility and power in England’s back row, was full of praise for the Seal’s smooth and effortless handling.
“It drives like a dream, the performance is outstanding, and it’s so easy to handle, ” he said. “It’s like nothing I’ve driven before.”
The BYD Seal, a flagship electric sedan, boasts impressive credentials. The Seal offers a range of up to 354 miles on a single charge, powered by BYD’s proprietary Blade Battery technology.
Its sleek design, lightning-fast acceleration (0-62mph in as little as 3.8 seconds in the performance version), and spacious interior combine to deliver a premium EV experience.
Alan Day Motor Group has become a hub for celebrity BYD enthusiasts. Chandler now joins the ranks of notable names such as Nicolas and Anthony Hamilton, brother and father of F1 champion Lewis Hamilton; former England cricket captain Darren Gough; singing sensation Beverley Knight; and Manchester City legend İlkay Gündoğan.
Darran Clarke, Head of Marketing at Alan Day Motor Group, said: “We’re thrilled to see so many high-profile individuals choosing Alan Day and BYD for their electric vehicle needs. The Seal is a perfect fit for someone like Chandler—delivering world-class performance and eco-friendly innovation. It’s great to see athletes from different fields embracing the benefits of electric driving.”
As electric vehicles continue to gain popularity among athletes and entertainers, Alan Day Motor Group and BYD are leading the charge in combining style, sustainability, and cutting-edge technology.
For Chandler, the BYD Seal is not just a car—it’s a game-changing driving experience that matches his on-field excellence.
