New BYD Dolphin

BYD Dolphin adopts the new 'Ocean aesthetics' design concept. The sophisticated outline of the bodywork, coupled with sharp crease lines and flowing contours, projects a confident and elegant design underpinned by an all-electric powertrain. Enjoy freedom with the BYD DOLPHIN.

The headlight and taillight

The design of the front and rear lights is inspired by the dynamic motion of dolphins breaching out of Ocean. The continuous LED headlight running across the centre grille and the  dynamic taillight design reveal a sense of avant-garde style and technology.

Floating center console

The futuristic suspended centre console design creates a modern, dynamic driving environment with its metal trim detail that runs across the entire dashboard, forming a beautiful, minimalist curved surface.

The screen

The large dominant display screen serves as the centre of a connected universe, integrating intelligent voice and connected car functions to allow the user to drive without distraction while also adding intelligent entertainment to the experience.

Easy-going free control

Key functions and controls are integrated into the centre console using tactile slider switch gear controls, making it simpler and safer for drivers to locate.

Large trunk space

The trunk can easily store four standard 20-inch luggage compartments. The seats can be split 60:40 allowing the 345 litre boot to be expanded to 1,310 litres when both seats are folded flat.

Vegan leather integrated seats

The integrated sports seats offer long-distance comfort as well as strong lateral support during cornering. The seats, which are trimmed in Vegan leather, have six-way electric adjustment for the driver and four-way electric adjustment for the front passenger, as well as heating for front occupants.

Comfortable rear passenger space

Thanks to the e-platform 3.0, the short front and rear overhangs and long wheelbase give the car a more spacious appearance, and the rear passenger compartment has a flat floor, giving middle-seat passengers more comfort and space.

Panoramic sunroof

The full-sized panoramic glass roof spans the entire cabin, providing unparalleled ultra-wide-angle visibility and allowing light to flood into the spacious interior.

More storage space

There are 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, which could meet your needs for daily travel.

Fast charging

With 100 kW DC charger, the battery can be replenished from 30% to 80% in just 29 minutes.

VtoL (Vehicle to Load)

BYD DOLPHIN provides VTOL discharge black technology, which can achieve 3.3kW external discharge, allowing the new energy vehicle to become a mobile power station. With this providing convenience for outdoor picnics and open-air movies, and allowing the interest of life to be extended infinitely.

The 60.4 kWh Blade Battery combined with permanent magnet synchronous motor, BYD DOLPHIN can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7 seconds.

BYD Dolphin has excellent safety credentials as proven in safety tests conducted by the independent European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP). BYD Dolphin proudly achieved the ultimate overall safety rating of 5 stars.

The Dolphin is equipped with the latest generation '5RIV' intelligent driving system, which utilises millimetre-wave radar technology to monitor and control the vehicle's environment and surroundings, assisting in protecting occupants from increasingly complex road environments.

Advanced features include:

BSD (Blind Spot Detection), RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert), RCTB (Rear Cross Traffic Braking), FCTA (Forward Cross Traffic Alert), FCTB (Forward Cross Traffic Braking): Thanks to the layout of millimetre-wave radars and the multi-functional video controller, the exterior vehicle surroundings can be comprehensively monitored, helping reduce blind spots of vision.  Even in complex road intersections and crowded car parks, the Dolphin’s Advanced Driver

  • Assistance System will provide all-around protection to help avoid accidents.

(2)ICC (Intelligent Cruise Control): Our ICC system can provide adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist features at speeds ranging from 0 to 150 km/h. This vast range of operation allows for safer and more relaxing driving, whether in a congested city or at highway speed limits. 

VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control): As the ADAS system monitors the vehicle's driving status in real time, it can intelligently control the wheels to improve traction and grip in a variety of road conditions if the tyres begin to lose grip.

e-Platform 3.0

BYD Dolphin is equipped with the BYD e-Platform 3.0 designed exclusively for pure electric vehicles.
Giving full play to the advantages of intelligence, efficiency, safety and aesthetics, e-Platform 3.0 aims to promote NEVs’ performance in safety and low-temperature driving range as well as improve intelligent driving experiences, to build more efficient and safer new intelligent EVs.

Blade Battery

BYD has been a pioneering name in the battery industry for more than 27 years. Our latest game-changing ultra-safe Blade Battery has passed a series of extreme tests in rigorous conditions, making it one of the world’s safest batteries.

  • Enhanced safety
  • Optimised strength
  • Longer range
  • Longer lifespan

The world’s first mass-produced 8-in-1 electric powertrain

BYD has an exceptional vertical integration capabilities within the supply chain. BYD integrates 8 key components incorporating VCU, BMS, MCU, PDU, DC-DC controller, on-board charger, drive motor and transmission, producing the world’s first mass-produced 8-in-1 electric powertrain system, greatly optimising space utilisation and energy efficiency.

High efficiency heat pump system as standard  

An advanced energy-saving heat pump system comes as standard. Reliably operating in a broad range of temperatures, the system is designed to highly utilise residual heat from surroundings, the powertrain, passenger compartment and even the batteries. It enhances the thermal efficiency and reduces energy loss whether heating or cooling. Therefore, the low-temperature driving range is increased.

Smart connectivity and leading infotainment are other primary elements of the BYD DOLPHIN, which is equipped with a 4G intelligent connection system bringing leading technology experiences, and Over The Air (OTA) updates as part of the cloud service.

GPS Navigation features as standard. A focal feature inside the BYD DOLPHIN is unique the 12.8 rotatable screen with voice recognition delivering an abundance of connected experiences, and integrated (as from August via OTA) Apps including Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
