2025 BYD Dolphin Launches In China, Offers A Longer Range At The Same Price

BYD, a well-known Chinese electric car company, has officially unveiled Dolphin 2025, which provides a greater range at an unchanged price. According to the CNevpost website on Tuesday, July 8, Dolphin 2025 is the same as its predecessor, Dolphin Glory Edition, which is available in four varieties with costs ranging from 99,800 yuan (approximately Rp223 million) to 129,800 yuan (Rp290 million). BYD Dolphin Glory Edition was released early last year, and the 2025 model was presented less than six months after the last upgrade. This demonstrates how BYD responded fast to the rapidly changing market situation.There is no change in design, including the car's measurements, which remain 4.125 mm long, 1,770 mm wide, and 1,570 mm high, with a 2.700 mm wheelbase, indicating that the proportions have not altered since its first debut in 2021. Meanwhile, the redesigned Dolphin features a bigger battery pack for the entry-level edition at the highest price, resulting in a longer reach. Three Dolphin 2025 variations priced cheaper are powered by a blade battery with a capacity of 44.928 kWh and a CLTC range of 420 kilometers. The most expensive option features a bigger blaze battery with a capacity of 60.48 kWh and a CLTC range of 520 kilometers. The three lower-priced Dolphin 2025 models have the same engine as the Dolphin Glory Edition, with an electric motor producing 70 kW peak power and 180 Nm peak torque, and acceleration from 0 to 50 km/h in 3.9 seconds. The most expensive model is driven by more powerful motors with a peak power of 150 kW and a peak torque of 310 Nm, allowing vehicles to accelerate from 0 to 50 km/h in under 3.5 seconds. At the same time, BYD stated that the 700,000th Dolphin had been released off the assembly line, showing that demand for the vehicle was rather substantial. This one automobile is also available in Indonesia, however the specs are clearly different. For the Indonesian market, it is available in two variants: Dynamic, which is powered by a Blade battery and has a range of 410 kilometers, and Premium, which uses the same battery and has a range of 490 kilometers.
