Our review of the BYD Dolphin Surf
"It’s hard to be anything but impressed by just how quickly BYD has gained momentum. Granted, it’s an ENORMOUS company in its home market with essentially endless resource, but then, so is Great Wall Motors, and how many Ora 03s have you seen lately? But BYDs are everywhere, seemingly. So far in the UK in 2025, BYD sales are about the same as Peugeot’s, and eclipsing Tesla’s. Not bad for a company that entered the UK market the same year that the GTA 6 trailer dropped. It will get even better for BYD thanks to this, the Dolphin Surf. Stupid name, right, but who cares when it’s a spacious, comfy and well-equipped city-focused EV priced at a shade under £19,000. Subjectively it’s nowhere near as interesting as a Hyundai Inster or a Renault 5 or a Citroen e-C3 or a used BMW i3, and it’s not as cheap as a Dacia Spring, but it does have an awful lot going for it. And we expect that its particular set of skills will make it another BYD that flies off the shelves. It’s a perfectly reasonable zero-emissions runabout."
