Could suit you if…
- Many journeys are local or relatively short: petrol can fit that use without choosing diesel just for occasional long trips.
- You want practical access for everyday shopping and bags: the hatchback opening may suit your routine. Check actual boot space.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need room for several children or extra passengers: the seat count is not recorded. Confirm this exact version's seats and child-seat fit; do not assume from the model name.
- You need certainty about this particular car: type-level advice cannot confirm its condition. Ask for service records, an insurance quote and an independent inspection.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The Dolphin is a dedicated battery-electric hatchback — there is no petrol engine or torque-converter automatic here, so confirm the dealer has mis‑labelled the fuel type. Expect low routine servicing costs but remember EVs depend on charging infrastructure; the Dolphin offers modest DC charging speeds (typically mid-range for small EVs) and BYD usually backs batteries with a long warranty (check the exact terms). Confirm software/ADAS updates and that the charging cables/adapters are included.
- Confirm it’s the electric Dolphin: no fuel filler, working CCS charging port and included charging cable/adapters.
- Battery state‑of‑health/range: ask for a full-charge range reading and a battery-wear report or warranty confirmation.
- DC fast-charge test (if possible) to verify advertised charging speed and CCS socket operation.
- Infotainment/ADAS software version and evidence of latest updates; check cameras and parking sensors function.
- Bodywork, panel gaps and doors (new cars can have delivery damage) and tyre pressures/age
