Used BYD Dolphin Extended Range Priced At RM83k

In our humble opinion, this BYD Dolphin is the best value electric car to start your EV transition

In July 2023 this BYD Dolphin arrived in Malaysia to tackle a whole new electric car segment which had NO REAL rivals. Yes, there were other compact electric vehicles in the market, but no real rival to this well built and high technology BYD product.

Interestingly, this award winning BYD has been very popular with urban Malaysians looking for a starter electric car.

Its new selling price was RM99,900 for the ‘Dynamic’ variant and RM124,900 for the ‘Premium’ Extended variant which is on sale here in the used car classifieds.

Just one year old and with battery health at 410km range which the buyer can get verification from BYD service centers in Malaysia, this we feel is a good way to try electric vehicle ownership at a RM80k plus budget. Loan will still be available at an attractive interest rate and even after 5 years of ownership, the depreciation should not be more than half the purchase value, given the popularity of BYD in Malaysia and its strong network of after sales.

Electric Powertrain Technology for the Ultimate in Efficiency and Intelligence

Did you know that the Blade Battery works in close synergy with BYD’s competency in electric powertrain technology. BYD DOLPHIN is, like the BYD ATTO 3, built on BYD’s intelligent e-Platform 3.0 for the ultimate in system efficiency and integrated vehicle intelligence.

BYD’s 8-in-1 electric powertrain integrates the Vehicle Control Unit, the Battery Management System, the Power Distribution Unit, the Drive Motor, the Motor Controller, the Transmission, DC-DC, and On-Board Charger.

Such deep integration delivers a system efficiency of 89 percent. This integrated technology has been developed to deliver optimum performance and a better driving experience.

Acceleration and Performance

With the 60.4 kWh Blade Battery and a permanent magnet synchronous motor, the BYD DOLPHIN can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7 seconds. The 310 Nm of torque and 150kW/204 PS strong motor provide seamless performance helping the Dolphin reach a maximum top speed of 160 km/h. The four driving modes include Sport, Normal, Economy, and Snow to suit driving different conditions and preferences.
