Back home for 24 hours and it was time to pull the cover off the car. When it went under the cover the battery was showing as 44% charged, after 6 weeks it said 43%. There was a bit of a stale smell in the cabin, but that disappeared after a few minutes with the windows down.

Driving our car again does confirm that overall I do prefer it over the Mercedes EQE 350+ rental car that we had in the UK. The Merc was a nice car but being a base model from a premium brand meant it was missing a lot of quality of life features that came as standard with our BYD, such as the 360° camera system, HUD, and adaptive cruise control. I also missed the open feel that comes with our car's glass roof, and the absence of a frunk in the Merc was odd and unhelpful. Personally I think our Seal is a more stylish looking design, too. The one thing I will miss from the Merc is the speed limiter function. I really liked that in our old Hyundai i30 too, and I wish our Seal had it.
