Will BYD’s entry-level model in the electric car universe soon be imported to Europe?
Every new announcement from BYD makes the competition sweat bullets. After the refresh of the ATTO 3, it’s now the turn of the small Dolphin Mini to make headlines.
Launched in April 2023, the superstar of Chinese city electric cars (280,200 units sold in just 8 months) is seeing its price drop by 4,000 yuan (510 euros) to settle at 69,800 yuan, or about 8,910 euros! A Dacia Spring, also produced in China by Dongfeng, is more than twice as expensive in France…
A Mini-Lamborghini?
In China, the Dolphin Mini is very successful, especially because of its look, reminiscent of a Lamborghini Aventador. No coincidence since its designer is Wolfgang Egger, a former employee of the Italian manufacturer!
Certainly very affordable, BYD is not a budget car for all that. With an autonomy ranging from 300 to 400 km depending on the battery choice of 30 or 38 kWh and a power of 55 kW (75 hp), it offers lively performance.
The interior also impresses with a very premium presentation, including a large digital screen. As for the equipment list, available as standard or optional, it includes everything found in a higher-segment sedan: adaptive cruise control, 4 airbags, lane recognition, semi-automatic driving, Chat GPT, etc.
Will it soon be in Europe then?
