Charging

Charging made easy

The BYD DOLPHIN SURF supports DC charging at up to 85kW, allowing the battery to be replenished from 30% to 80% in just 22 minutes. This rapid charging makes everyday urban journeys effortless, while also giving the confidence to tackle longer trips with ease.

Exterior

A design where function meets fun

The BYD DOLPHIN SURF stands out with its distinctive single-arch profile, designed to maximise cabin space. A bold contour sweeps along the side of the car, emphasising its dynamic, sporty character.

A ‘floating roof’ and full-width LED tail-lights

The BYD DOLPHIN SURF’s C-pillar features an ice crystal–inspired dot-matrix design, giving the roof a striking ‘floating’ effect. At the rear, full-width LED tail-lights add a playful finishing touch to this compact electric car.

Stunning daytime-running lights

The BYD DOLPHIN SURF’s headlights are defined by clean, precise lines, with six angled light strips creating a distinctive signature. Complemented by daytime running lights, they give the compact EV a sharp and sophisticated presence.

Sporty rear spoiler

The DOLPHIN SURF’s integrated roof spoiler not only accentuates its sporty character but also boosts aerodynamics, improving efficiency and supporting an impressive driving range.

Interior

All the tech you’d expect from a BYD

Inside, the DOLPHIN SURF offers a modern, tech-focused cabin. At its heart is BYD’s signature 10.1-inch rotating touchscreen, complete with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. Voice control, activated with the ‘Hi BYD’ command, lets you manage a range of key functions hands-free – keeping your focus firmly on the road.

Safe and easy to use

The centrepiece of the instrument panel, the 10.1-inch display is positioned at an optimal height, ensuring the driver can stay informed while keeping attention firmly on the road and surrounding traffic.

Fun flourishes

The BYD DOLPHIN SURF’s air vents are styled with bold, angular lines and a cyberpunk-inspired design, giving the cabin a futuristic, playful and energetic character.

The perfect blend of support and comfort

Impressively spacious for a compact EV, the DOLPHIN SURF offers comfort whether you’re in the supportive front sports seats or the roomy rear cabin. Blending comfort with practicality, the seats can also be specified with electric adjustment and heating for added convenience.

Clever storage solutions

Despite its compact size, the BYD DOLPHIN SURF is designed for everyday practicality. The boot offers 308 litres of space, expanding to 1,037 litres with the rear seats folded. Clever storage is built in throughout the cabin, with over 20 compartments – from twin front cup-holders to additional space beneath the boot floor.

Never run out

The BYD DOLPHIN SURF comes with a wireless charging pad, ensuring your smartphone stays powered up wherever your journey takes you.
