Most definitely not. People don't need a car made with Uyghur slave labour, CCP subsidies and without regards to human rights in the delving and processing of raw materials. BYD scored lowest of all EV manufacturers in the latest human rights report by Amnesty. Also: 7000km's in a year? She didn't need a car, she could've used a bike.

I have had my Dolphin for 6 months - same model. No problems whatsoever, and beautifully built. In practice I get around 400km around town, but that's because I enjoy the performance rather worry about efficiency. My AGL night EV tariff charges the car for around $5. Latest software version (1.3) fixes a lot of the ADACs issues. I turn off the traffic sign recognition (and it stays off), and turn off the more aggressive lane keeping etc, so in normal driving there are no bing bongs at all. Agree Sport mode is super fun, but I tend to leave it in Normal mode, with only the steering in Sport mode to give a more direct feel. Two things I don't like - the boot cover is a bit flimsy, and the dash vents can reflect of the windscreen. Otherwise an amazing little hot hatchback!

Byd already has around 4thousand engineer working on adas alone. The second biggest team behind huawei. Currently only denza and yangwang using adas develop from their inhouse team, which is a very good adas system for in china. For the dynasty brand and ocean brand they are still using third party adas for their cheaper model. Lately high end model from han seal start to equip better adas system which develop by dji. Currently around 100krmb -180k rmb they using momenta adas, 180k-230k using dji, denza brand which start from 230k above till yangwang which cost over 1m using dji inhouse adas. The next fangchengbao 8 which start around 400k gonna use huawei adas. Which in china is known for having better adas system than tesla fsd

Unfortunately, here in Canada the only EVs that are available are American or Korean, and I am not interested in any of those products. Chinese cars haven't made it to Canada yet, but when they do it looks like I will have to buy one for the government (100% Canadian tarriffs) in order to buy one for myself.

The rotation screen is for mobile app compatible. Its infotainment system is basically a big Android phone so you can manually install any mobile apps on it if you want. A lot of Chinese owners like to do that (like me), I even installed mobile games on it, and attached a gamepad thru USB to play my favorite games on my car (of course not when driving:). Some apps are only designed to run on cell phone's portrait screen, the screen will automatically rotate to fit.

Nice Review Elly, I also own a Dolphin🐬 Premium (mine's Blue), I've had it for 3 months now & LOVING IT♥♥♥ WLTP Rating is 427Km, I find the 490Km range number (NEDC Standard) misleading & unachievable. This leads me to a little (not so little!) bug bear of mine, the available range is nowhere near accurate & cannot be relied upon. I use a spreadsheet to calculate my range based on usage, I'd get @330Km from a full charge. I live in a Aussie Regional Town surrounded by not so gentle rolling hills, so this range is basically what I expected. The width of the driver side(Right Hand Drive in Oz) "A" pillar is an issue on those sharpish right hand bends, especially if there is oncoming traffic, it can completely block the view of oncoming cars, so don't cut the corners/bends. The reflection of the dash (particularly the shadow line of that large cutout) on the windscreen is really bad, if you're not wearing polarized sunnies🕶. I always drive in "Normal Mode" using the Adaptive Cruise Control a lot and I just love the feel, responsiveness (when needed), CarPlay (Apple Maps for me) & OMG the comfort is amazing. The Dolphin🐬 is a cool little car, with a great sense of style & fun, there should be a lot more of us on the roads. 🚙😍🚙🤩🚙😄

BYD being a Chinese company actually is the acronym for BI YA DA, that’s the real Chinese name. However they use the acronym to create a tagline Build Your Dreams, like LG uses the tagline of Life’s Good. However LG real name is Lucky Goldstar!

The original Linglong tires are so that bad. But I will probably change when they are worn out.

Hi Elly, Thank you for the detailed (long term) review of the BYD Dolphin Premium. We need more real world reviews such as your review. It;s nice to see how people actually live with an electric car day-to-day. Thanks again. 😀

I'm 100000km and 3 years deep into my 2021 BYD Song EV. All good, nothing had to be changed, software is flawless, but the paint job isn't great. Recently I've found that the paint bubbled up in the corner of driver's door window frame. No big deal as for me, but I hope they've imposed it other over time (All the other body parts have no such thing, even fenders within the panel gaps have no pain job deterioration)

Fantastic presentation, really enjoyed it. As an Atto 3 owner of a few weeks, we took a close look at the Dolphin (and about ten other EV's!) when deciding what to pick up. I'm kind of hoping they give me a Dolphin as a loan car at my first service :) Also, I think the button on the right of the gear selector is the "Park" gear, not the Electric Park Brake. For some reason the BYD's have a "P" for Park and a "(P)" for Electric Park Brake / Hand Brake. Even more confusing, selecting the Park gear activates the Electric Park Brake!

I live in Malaysia. I am getting a BYD Dolphin. This video gives me the first impression of how owning and driving a BYD Dolphin is like. Yes, there are a lot of autonomous or AI features. But I don't fancy these AI stuffs. I only want an EV with an efficient electric motor and an easy-to-manage battery. The cheapest BYD Dolphin in Malaysia is sold at MYR100,000 or USD22,840 or AUD34,750. How much is the cheapest BYD Dolphin sold in Australia? Thanks for the video.

I like the chinese models but they lack of tech for european roads (to slow charging, not convincible software) and unfortunately they are very expensive in Europe. They will not succeed if they try attack the premium segment (what they mainly try). Really liked the interior and the build quality. They have definitely the potential to suceed and I am happy that they are already accepted in Australia! Very cute video!

BYD in Chinese was always Bǐyàdí. When they expanded out of China they picked "Build Your Dreams" and have since realized the clunky translation and have reverted back to BYD. Why didn't they just ask an Aussie if Build your dreams was cool before they went with it?
