BYD Dolphin

Range test

BYD Dolphin

The BYD Dolphin, similar in size to a VW ID.3, covered 375 km at 90 km/h in the summer test at around 17 °C. Efficiency was rated average, and the comfortable seats and the reversing camera that works at speed were welcome, but the car felt fairly noisy and the lane assist nervous. With hands off the wheel, the car neither slowed down nor kept steering, and the sound system earned three or four out of ten. An MG4 or a Tesla would be the preferred pick.
