During its introduction, the Song Pro was offered in three variants: an internal combustion engine (ICE) version with a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, the plug-in hybrid Song Pro DM and the battery electric Song Pro EV. Since 2022, only the plug-in hybrid version remains available, which has been upgraded to the newer DM-i plug-in hybrid powertrain.
The model is part of the Dynasty Series, marketed through the Dynasty Network dealership chain, and positioned below the larger BYD Song L DM-i. In 2024, an Ocean Series counterpart of the Song Pro, the BYD Sealion 05 DM-i, was introduced.
The Song Pro became available in outside China in 2024, mostly in Latin American countries to complement the more expensive BYD Song Plus.[7] In the Philippines, it was introduced in June 2025 as the BYD Sealion 5 DM-i.

Perspective
The Song Pro was introduced in early 2019. Based on the BNA (BYD New Architecture) platform shared with the Qin Pro,[8][9][10] the Song Pro is positioned in the Chinese A+-class SUV segment, equivalent to a space between the global C-segment and D-segment.[9][1] Its front end design adopts the "Dragon Face 2.0", the second-generation BYD Dragon face design language.[9]
The Song Pro was available in three different powertrains, namely the petrol-powered Song Pro (until early 2022), the fully electric Song Pro EV (until 2021) and the plug-in hybrid Song Pro DM (updated to DM-i in 2022).
The petrol version Song Pro is powered by the same 1.5-litre turbo engine producing 113 kW (154 PS; 152 hp).[11]
