2026 SEALION 5 has no DC charging port: absence of a fast-charge socket is not a fault
Australian MY26 SEALION 5 lists Type 2 AC at 3.3kW and no DC port. Confirm equipment before reporting a charging-port or OBC fault.
At a fast-charge station, finding no expected DC socket does not justify reporting “part of the fast-charge port is missing”. Neither Australian 2026 SEALION 5 DM-i trim has a factory-listed DC charging port. Confirming the port equipment first helps avoid treating an equipment difference as a repair.
What the table says for this model
Essential DM-i and Premium DM-i both list a Type 2 AC port rated at 3.3kW, with the DC charging port marked not fitted.[T11] This differs from a vehicle with a DC port that cannot charge. Do not fill this vehicle's record using another BYD model's charging capability.
Before vehicle reception, record photographs of the actual port, the equipment type and vehicle messages. Failure to charge on AC is a separate symptom requiring testing. The absence of a factory DC port neither explains nor excludes an AC-side abnormality.
An adapter does not establish an upgrade plan
This factory table provides no retrofit plan for adding DC charging. An accessory that appears to connect physically cannot be treated as a way to add DC fast charging. Nor does the 3.3kW field establish how an OBC is supplied separately. This article first defines the factory port boundary so genuine repair requirements can be described clearly. [To be verified]
