The BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i is a long-range plug-in hybrid hatchback designed to bring together compact dimensions, electric driving and the flexibility of hybrid technology. Developed by BYD specifically for overseas markets, including Europe, it introduces a new approach to the supermini category.
Combining everyday practicality with BYD's Super Hybrid technology, the DOLPHIN G DM-i is designed for drivers seeking an accessible vehicle for daily journeys and longer trips.
The BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i is designed for Europe's B-segment, bringing compact hatchback proportions to a vehicle with hybrid technology. Measuring 4.16 metres long and 1.825 metres wide, it is sized for the supermini category.
Its compact dimensions make it a practical option for drivers looking for a hatchback that balances manageable proportions with the versatility required for everyday motoring.
The BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i features BYD's Super Hybrid technology with DM, combining an electric motor and petrol engine to support different driving requirements. The system is designed to deliver an electric-vehicle-style driving experience with smooth, responsive acceleration.
With the electric motor providing drive and the hybrid system managing energy use, the DOLPHIN G DM-i combines electric motoring with the flexibility to undertake longer journeys.
The BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i is designed to cover everyday journeys using electric power alone. Its Blade Battery supports a quoted pure-electric driving range of up to 105 km, allowing drivers to complete many regular trips without using petrol when the battery has sufficient charge.
For commuting, local errands and urban driving, its electric-first approach provides an alternative to conventional petrol-powered superminis while retaining hybrid flexibility for journeys further afield.
When a journey extends beyond the available electric range, the BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i can use its hybrid powertrain to provide additional flexibility. Its combination of battery power and petrol fuel is designed to support longer journeys without depending entirely on charging infrastructure.
With the battery fully charged, BYD quotes weighted fuel consumption of as little as 1.4 litres per 100 kilometres and a combined range of up to 1,040 kilometres with a full battery and full petrol tank.
The BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i combines compact hatchback dimensions with a practical luggage area. Its 425-litre boot capacity provides space for everyday essentials, shopping and luggage.
This focus on practicality helps position the DOLPHIN G DM-i as more than a city-focused hatchback, offering useful carrying capacity for the varied demands of daily life and weekend travel.
The BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i introduces advanced digital features to the compact hatchback category. Available technology includes built-in Google services, a head-up display and NFC smartphone key access.
These features are designed to make everyday journeys more convenient, providing access to connected functions and useful driving information while supporting a modern, digitally connected driving experience.
