The compact electric car that’s built for the big city
The BYD DOLPHIN SURF is the cool, fun-loving model from the world’s largest
new-energy vehicle brand. It mixes sharp design, a spacious interior, punchy
performance and BYD’s trademark in-car technologies – making it the perfect
choice for people who don’t want to compromise on features.
Exterior
A design where function meets fun
BYD DOLPHIN SURF has a distinctive stance, with a single-arch profile that
creates exceptional cabin space. A wide contour rises along the side of the
car for an enhanced sporty look.
A ‘floating roof’ and full-width LED tail-lights
The C-pillar of the BYD DOLPHIN SURF boasts a dot-matrix design inspired by ice
crystals. It helps to visually separate the roof, creating a ‘floating’ effect.
Meanwhile, the rear features full-width LED tail-lights, another fun feature of
this compact electric car.
Stunning daytime-running lights
The BYD DOLPHIN SURF's headlights feature clean, crisp lines, consisting of six
angled light strips. The compact EV also has daytime-running lights to create an
overall sharp and sophisticated look.
Sporty rear spoiler
The DOLPHIN SURF’s integrated roof spoiler enhances its sporty look – adding to
its aerodynamic profile, helping to improve efficiency, and contributing to
excellent range.

Charging
The BYD DOLPHIN SURF has a maximum DC charging rate of 85kW – which means it
can get from 10% to 80% of battery capacity in just 30 minutes. This
recharge rate easily supports daily urban commutes, but also means the
DOLPHIN SURF can take on longer journeys when needed.
Interior
All the tech you’d expect from a BYD
The DOLPHIN SURF has a smart cabin that’s packed with useful technology. The
dashboard features BYD’s signature 10.1-inch rotating touchscreen, equipped
with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. The DOLPHIN SURF also
features voice control via a ‘Hi BYD’ command allowing you to access many
key functions without taking your hands off the wheel.
Safe and easy to use
The key feature of the entire instrument panel, the 10.1-inch display is just
the right height, allowing the driver to drive safely without becoming too
distracted from the road ahead or surrounding traffic.
Fun flourishes
The BYD DOLPHIN SURF's air conditioning vents feature rugged lines and a stylish
cyber punk-inspired design, for a futuristic, fun and fast-paced feel.
The perfect blend of support and comfort
For a compact EV, there’s plenty of space, regardless of whether you’re sitting
in the DOLPHIN SURF’s front sports seats or the spacious rear cabin. Enjoy the
perfect combination of support and comfort with this electric city car. Seats
are also available with electrical adjustment and heating.

attributes of the revolutionary e-Platform 3.0, which provides a safe body
structure that’s unique to electric cars.
Clever storage solutions
The BYD DOLPHIN SURF may be a compact EV but its clever packaging means it’s
ready for everyday life. It has a boot capacity of 316 litres, which can expand

Innovation
Powered by the industry-leading Blade Battery

years. Our game-changing Blade Battery is featured in the BYD DOLPHIN SURF,
bringing benefits in packaging and durability. It has passed a series of
extreme tests in rigorous conditions, to make it one of the world’s safest
batteries.
The World’s First Mass-Produced 8-in-1 Electric Powertrain
At the heart of the vehicle is the world’s first mass-produced 8-in-1
electric powertrain system, which combines all essential elements into a
single module, maximising space utilisation and improving efficiency – which
is crucial in compact electric cars like the DOLPHIN SURF.
