Uploaded 1 year ago by Electrifying

Video Summary

Here are the summary points from the video review of the electric car:
- The design model costs just over £31,000.
- Its exterior design is charming and not too quirky.
- The interior has plenty of space, especially legroom in the back, like in a car way bigger than a Golf.
- Indicator sounds are loud and sound like dolphin clicks.
- The reviewer dislikes the "Build Your Dreams" label on the back and notes the rear wiper has been very handy.
- There are few budget elements in the interior, like scratchy plastic.
- The adaptive cruise control is excellent.
- When engaged, lane-keep assist is a bit too forceful.
- Charging has a top speed of 88kW, but this has not been observed. It usually takes around 40 minutes to fully charge.
- It does not have one-pedal driving.
- It has a very good battery with 5-star EuroNCAP ratings, tested by driving a nail straight through.
- It has wired Apple CarPlay, not wireless.
- The reviewer has had some software problems that have since been resolved.
- The reviewer concludes that the BYD Dolphin is perfectly fine for the money as an affordable city car.
