The BYD Dolphin is a small, budget-friendly EV that offers impressive value, combining practicality with a spacious, comfortable interior. With a very competitive starting price, the Dolphin's roomy cabin provides ample space for four adults, even with a panoramic roof. It features a larger boot than most rivals in this price range too.
Models equipped with a 60kWh battery deliver punchy acceleration and efficient performance, making it a solid choice for urban and family drivers alike. Inside, the Dolphin impresses with stylish design, quality materials and a well-equipped, tech-focused layout.
Its smooth suspension enhances ride comfort, while clever engineering maximises interior space. With multiple versions to choose from, the Dolphin offers a compelling balance of price, performance and practicality in the EV market.
A Grainger Motor Group we stock the BYD Dolphin and offer test drives at our showrooms in Mantles BYD Royston and EMG BYD Bury St Edmunds, King's Lynn, and Spalding.
The current BYD Dolphin lineup features a single, powerful 201hp electric motor paired with either a 44.9kWh or 60.4kWh battery, delivering up to 265 miles of WLTP range. The electric hatchback accelerates from 0-62mph in just 7 seconds, providing more than adequate performance for both city driving and motorway cruising.
Fast charging at up to 100kW means you can charge from 30-80% in just 29 minutes at compatible rapid charging stations. For home charging, the Dolphin typically requires a level 1 charger, making overnight top-ups convenient and cost-effective.
The BYD Dolphin features a large 12.8-inch touchscreen that serves as the centre of a connected universe, integrating intelligent voice control and Over-the-Air (OTA) updates. The system includes 4G connectivity, bringing leading technology experiences to your daily drive. Standard connectivity includes Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility.
The interior showcases BYD's maritime theme with door handles sculpted to look like dolphin fins and wave-like detailing across the dashboard. The futuristic suspended centre console design creates a modern, dynamic driving environment, while metal trim details run across the entire dashboard.
The BYD Dolphin was awarded a full five stars by Euro NCAP when tested in 2023, with high scores for adult and child occupants, vulnerable road users, and safety assists. BYD DOLPHIN proudly achieved the ultimate overall safety rating of 5 stars, giving you complete confidence in family protection.
Standard safety equipment includes a 360-degree camera system for enhanced driver visibility, as well as the following advanced driver assistance features:
Additional safety features include seven airbags, high-beam assist, driver fatigue detection, and blind spot assist functions.
Despite being a compact hatchback, the BYD Dolphin provides numerous storage areas throughout the cabin, including large door pockets, a central covered storage cubby, and a hollowed storage tray beneath the main driver information screen. The flat rear floor maximises passenger comfort, especially for middle-seat occupants.
Despite being a small hatchback, the boot can easily store four standard 20-inch luggage compartments. The 60:40 split-folding rear seats allow the 345-litre boot to expand to 1,310 litres when both seats are folded flat.
