The BYD Dolphin is a stylish compact electric hatchback that combines practicality, performance, and BYD's proven e-platform 3.0 technology. Powered by a 150 kW (204 PS) electric motor delivering 310 N·m of torque, the Dolphin accelerates from 0–50 km/h in just 3.5 seconds and offers a CLTC range of 520 km. With fast charging (30–80% in 0.42 hours), a 4,280 mm body, and 5-seat practicality, it is one of BYD's most popular compact EVs for urban commuters and small families worldwide.
The Dolphin features BYD's "Ocean Aesthetics" design language at 4,280 × 1,770 × 1,570 mm. The front is characterised by a closed grille with flowing LED headlamps and a friendly, rounded appearance. A clean side profile with flush door handles and aerodynamic alloy wheels enhances efficiency. The rear features LED combination lamps with a wave-inspired light pattern. The overall design is cute, modern, and aerodynamic — appealing to young urban buyers and small families.
The Dolphin's cabin is a showcase of efficient packaging and modern technology. BYD's signature rotating touchscreen (12.8 inches) pairs with a digital instrument cluster. The 5-door, 5-seat layout offers surprisingly generous headroom and legroom for a compact hatchback. Quality materials, ambient lighting, automatic climate control, and ample storage compartments ensure everyday comfort. The flat rear floor maximises passenger comfort, while the hatchback design provides versatile cargo capacity.
The Dolphin is equipped with BYD's comprehensive safety suite, including multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, ESC, hill-start assist, TPMS, and a 360° surround-view camera. Advanced driver assistance features include forward collision warning with AEB, lane departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring. The BYD Blade Battery (LFP) provides industry-leading thermal stability and fire resistance. Additional safety features include ISOFIX child-seat anchors and electronic parking brake with auto-hold.
