The second model to be made available in the UK from Chinese EV-super brand BYD is the Dolphin. A compact C-segment hatchback EV and the first of what BYD calls “Ocean Aesthetics” design concept models. A larger saloon-like Seal model followed as BYD's third model to arrive on UK shores at the end of 2023.

The Dolphin is built on the brand's state-of-the-art BYD e-Platform 3.0 and comes into a choice of two battery sizes. A 44.9 kWh pack and a 60.4 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate battery pack.

This should mean that the WLTP range figure for the 60.4 kWh model is set to be around the 260 mile mark, which means a real world range of around 210 to 220 miles should be attainable. The smaller battery means fewer miles but a smaller price tag, we're expecting a real world range of around 150 to 160 miles.

Four trim line-up

The Dolphin will come to the UK with a choice of four trim levels, Active, Boost, Comfort and Design.

Active and Boost are the entry level Dolphins in the pod - both feature the smaller battery pack. The Active comes with a 70 kW motor while (as the name suggests) the Boost comes with a meatier 130 kW motor.

Moving up to Comfort and Design, both come with the larger battery pack paired to an identical 150 kW motor. The Design just gets the added gloss of a panoramic roof and two-tone paintwork.

The smaller battery packs can accept up to 60kW of DC power from a rapid charger unit, so not particularly fast but perfect for when you need a short burst of extra power on a longer trip, while the larger capacity units can accept up to 88kW of DC power.
