BYD Dolphin first drive in Ireland - new brand is actually 30 years old!

Build your dreams BYD has found a home in Ireland and what an impression they are making on the market! With three dealerships confirmed and another 12 in the pipeline, there's no doubt that BYD Ireland will really trouble the competition.
I have a drive of the BYD Dolphin in this video and check out some of the features.

[@ericrochford3134]

Delighted to see you getting back into it Bob! It’s not the best looking car but hard to argue too much at that price point.

[@sharonec5419]

You know I thought that too when I seen it at first but I think it's just a colour sensitive car. It's better in some colours than others.

[@darrenliggett7222]

Yes Bob, great to see you back reviewing cars again, you can't keep a good man down, another great review, well done sir 👏

[@alankelly1542]

Wonderful to see my favourite car reviewer back where he belongs. Hope ur fighting fit Bob. Great review of a decent little car 🚗

[@peterdavidwatson]

Happy to see you back. I live in China so I know BYD well. Chinese EV brands are very impressive particularly NIO, Zeekr and Xpeng.

[@neilbissett1240]

Firstly it’s really lovely to have you back bob as ever another great review 👏😎

[@martinkearns8827]

Tremendous to have you back on the air, Bob and with a great review of what is likely to be a big seller.

[@pvdL]

Great to see you back Bob.

[@ployb]

Fantastic to see some reviews coming through Bob. Its a good sign, a bit like better value EVs! 🙂

[@bobogliddabrun]

It's not a bad little car, just wish it wasn't called a Build Your Dreams Dolphin. Sounds like a Mr. Tumble motivational song

[@nielsvermeiree]

So great to see you back, Bob😊

[@oceanfroggie]

Great to see you back in the Saddle. Great review as ever. The price says it all. Best wishes for your continuing recovery. Looking great.

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Nice to see you back in the saddle Bob. I think BYD are really going to go places.

[@vdub8567]

Good man Bob ! Great to see you back, BYD will knock lot of competition out of the water in Ireland,not much in the difference in size wise with ID3

[@DJNeiloSF]

You are right. BYD which are heavily subsidized by the Chinese government will kill the competition and once they have gotten control of the market, then they will put their prices up! They have done this in many areas already, like solar panels - which is why the EU are investigating auto now.

[@DenisCarpenter-n8p]

Great to see you back on the car review videos Bob.

[@TheAudi1983]

Great to see you getting back to it Bob. Take your time and enjoy what you are doing. This car makes sense.

[@terrydelahunt842]

Welcome back Bob. I actually dont think its a bad looking car, its far from ugly. The Comfort spec seems to the one to go for, under 30k and very well specced.

[@williamfence566]

Great to see you back bob. Have heard they are dropping the Build your dreams on the vehicle just BYD. the european market is more conscious of the branding. EG " so what are you driving now?" " a Dolphin !! " . Doesn't work does it

Great to have you back doing reviews bob...BYD you can already see how popular they are I see 3 regularly around. But at that price point its what the car market is crying out for.
