Is the BYD Seagull good enough for daily driving?

The BYD Seagull has been praised for being inexpensive but discussions also continue as to whether its performance is adequate enough for everyday use. Some aren't exactly convinced how it’ll act in varying driving situations, and are worried about the Seagull’s modest power output and its favoring of efficiency over speed. Questions we are able to ask include its acceleration, highway performance, and how well it handles hills, or how many passengers it can carry. But proponents counter that the Seagull's performance is perfectly good enough for city driving and most drivers don't need high performance cars to get to work anyway. But this debate also raises broader questions of what the expectations for EVs are — and whether high performance inevitably means putting the dream of electric mobility for everyone on hold.
