Research appendix
Appendix A — Source figure inventory
The source PDF contains four embedded figures: a pie chart of discussion distribution by platform type, a bar chart of core discussion themes, a bar chart of user satisfaction by usage profile, and a bar chart of boot space comparison. In the source, several category labels are truncated (for example “Automotive News:3…” and “Discussion Forum…”, and the family weekly-charger bar carries no label at all). All four figures have been rebuilt on this site from the accompanying data tables, with complete labels, declared axes and the same underlying values. No figure has been redrawn from an image estimate.
Appendix B — Editorial conventions
Percentages keep the precision of the source: no rounding has been applied. Where the source gives a range (15–20%, 3+ months, 70–125 km, 5–6 months), the range is preserved rather than collapsed to a midpoint. Currency is not used anywhere, because the report cites no prices. Sentiment direction is never converted into a score. Tables are reproduced with all rows and all columns, including rows that appear inconsistent with the surrounding text.
Appendix C — Publication status and restrictions
Status: draft for internal review, not cleared for external publication. Before external release the publishing team must (1) confirm rights for the two vehicle images, which are reproduced from third-party listings for identification only; (2) verify each of the fourteen references and add working links where permitted; (3) configure verified contact details; (4) decide whether the report's superlative and forecast statements may be quoted externally in their current form; and (5) confirm that no internal-only links or identifiers appear in this build. No ByteDance, BytePlus or BYD corporate identity is implied anywhere on this site.
Appendix D — Citation
Cite the source as: BYD SEAL U DM-i Western Europe Market Reach Analysis Report, 09 November 2026. When citing a figure from this website, cite the source report and note that the presentation layer (charts, executive framing and quality notes) was produced by this site.
Source-to-website coverage
A line-by-line reconciliation of the twelve-page source against this site is published as a separate document alongside the site files (COVERAGE_CHECKLIST.md). It records every section, table row, figure and reference, and the location where each appears. The short version: all eight report sections, all nine source tables, all four source figures, all fourteen references and all 77 numeric values are present in the full research pages.
Data conflicts, undefined bases and unsupported claims are documented section by section. Open research quality notes
