The lights

The design of the front and rear lights is inspired by dolphins jumping out of the ocean.

The continuous LED headlight running across the front of the BYD DOLPHIN and the dynamic tail light design look super.

The centre console

The suspended centre console creates a dynamic driving environment with its metal trim detail running across the entire dashboard, to form a beautiful, minimalist curve.

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 boot 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.

Charged for the road ahead

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