Just this past November, BYD's new energy vehicle sales reached 90,121 units, of which the sales of the dolphin, the first model of the marine life series, reached 8,809 units, a sharp increase of 46.4% month-on-month, achieving three consecutive sales increases. You know, at the beginning of the listing of this car, it was asserted by many car critics that the price was too high, but now its market sales have hit the face.
BYD Dolphin positioning small car, manufacturer guidance price of 9.38-12.18 million yuan, the endurance of the entry version is 301 kilometers, the endurance of the high-end version is 405 kilometers, it seems that the price is indeed not cheap, you know, near this price point, there is a higher AION Y nominal endurance, there is a price point close, but the endurance is longer, the design is more pleasing to the Euler good cat. There are also Euler white cats with prices that are tens of thousands lower, but the nominal endurance is close. In this way, the price and battery life of BYD Dolphins really have no advantages.
However, in the recent winter endurance test, BYD Dolphin has broken many people's doubts, in the environment of minus 20 degrees, achieved a range of 225 kilometers, while its nominal endurance is 405 kilometers, and the endurance achievement rate is as high as 55%. For comparison, euler's good cat's endurance achievement rate is only 48.75%, GAC's AION Y is only 46.67%, and Volkswagen's ID.3 is even only 38.9%.
When it was first listed, it was expensive, but now, the endurance of BYD Dolphin is obviously more solid, especially low temperature endurance, as the first model of BYD e platform 3.0, BYD Dolphin has achieved a relatively strong low temperature endurance by standard efficient eight-in-one electric powertrain, IPB deceleration feedback system, wide temperature range efficient heat pump system, etc.
In other aspects, BYD Dolphin also showed a strong texture, its comfort performance is outstanding, the interior texture is excellent, in addition to the minimum, other models are equipped with 360 ° panoramic reversing image, cruise control, keyless start/entry, remote start, LED headlights, automatic air conditioning, PM2.5 filtration device in the car, etc. Compared with the same level of models, the basic practicality configuration equipped by the Dolphin can be described as more comprehensive.
Therefore, although the price was shouted to be inflated at the beginning of the listing, compared with the products of other car companies at the same price, in terms of driving quality and stability of endurance, BYD Dolphin still showed certain advantages and was worth the money.
