Get to know BYD Dolphins quickly——
1, BYD Dolphin represents a new product line of BYD, it uses a pure electric platform - the first BYD e platform 3.0 model, rather than like many BYD models from the oil to electricity platform, Dolphin launched a total of four models.
2. Equipped with two lithium iron phosphate blade batteries of 30.7kWh and 44.9kWh, the battery life is 301km (30.7kWh), 405km, and 401km (44.9kWh).
3. Front permanent magnet synchronous motor, top equipped with knight version maximum power of 130kW, maximum torque of 290N·m. The remaining versions have a maximum power of 70 kW and a maximum torque of 180 N·m.
4. Other highlights: the first BYD Ocean series models, blade battery, eight-in-one electric drive assembly, heat pump air conditioning, VTOL external discharge function, mobile phone NFC key, etc.
The dolphin's wheelbase reaches 2700mm
In terms of size, the BYD dolphin is about the same length, width and height as the Honda Fit, but thanks to the pure electric platform, the wheelbase of the dolphin has reached 2700mm. Dolphin's styling design adopts a concept similar to bionics, and the overall look is still relatively fashionable. The whole series is equipped with far and near light integrated LED headlights as standard, and the bottom of the closed middle network is also integrated with LED light strips, which has achieved a penetrating effect as a whole, and only the LED daily running lights are missing in the lowest models. Dolphin's body size is 4125 (minimum 4070) / 1770 / 1570mm (length / width / height), e platform 3.0 brings this small car a 2700mm ultra-long wheelbase, which is an absolute leader in its class.
The Dolphin's rear 45° is the angle I personally think is the best to look at, and the ultra-short front and rear overhang, forward-diving waistline design is very "steel cannon" like a sense of sport. Dolphin comes standard with 16-inch two-tone aluminum alloy low-wind resistance wheels (upgraded to 17 inches on the top) that match the 195/60 R16 size sunrise tires. The "Build Your Dreams" logo is integrated into the interior of the taillight shade, and the through-LED taillights are very avant-garde and can bring super high recognition when lit.
Symmetrical + suspension of the layout of the large screen
Dolphin's interior is also a new design, although the overall layout is still symmetrical + suspension of the central control screen layout, but the circular air conditioning outlet, a variety of materials / color composition of the center console can still make people shine. The leather multi-function steering wheel is also standard throughout the series, with a bulge at 2 and 10 o'clock, larger buttons are all Chinese or graphic logos, and the feel of the scroll wheel is also quite good. The 5-inch full LCD dashboard is very compact, with two background themes, day and night, and the information displayed is rich enough.
In the center is a 12.8-inch rotatable LCD screen, using a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chip, the degree of follow-up of the screen, the response speed of the voice system, and the opening speed of the APP can be satisfactory. However, Huawei does not have 5G on the latest P50 Pro mobile phone for well-known reasons, and there may be no way to provide 5G chips in cars for some time to come.
The details of the air conditioner outlet are very exquisite, it is understood that the BYD dolphin series is equipped with heat pump air conditioning, which is of great help to energy saving. Below the center control is a row of commonly used buttons and electronic gears made of imitation metal, including driving mode, kinetic energy recovery adjustment, dual flash, air conditioning, defrosting, and multimedia volume adjustment rollers. The middle button is not straight up and down, but rotates downwards, which feels average, but the rightmost volume adjustment wheel feels very good. Two USB-A ports and a 12V cigarette lighter interface are designed on the bottom, with a Micro SD card slot with built-in dashcam in the middle.
The pure electric platform does not need to consider the arrangement of the transmission, so it also gives the dolphin a considerable storage space, and there is a deep storage slot under the telescopic cover. The electronic handbrake and Autohold are still designed in a very handy position.
Available in both 70kW and 130kW power versions
Dolphin's battery has a total of 30.7kWh and 44.9kWh versions, with a range of 301km and 405km respectively (the top knight version has a range of 401km). In terms of power, the two power versions of 70kW/180Nm and 130kW/290Nm are mentioned, and the official acceleration time of 0-50km/h is 3.9 seconds and 2.9 seconds, respectively.
This time, the face brother test drive is the second top version, that is, the fashion version with a pre-price of 111,800 yuan. It is equipped with a battery capacity of 44.9 kWh and a comprehensive battery life of 405 km. It is equipped with a 70kW/180Nm motor with an acceleration time of 3.9 seconds from 0 to 50km/h.
First of all, in terms of power, although the book data does not look very large, thanks to the direct and rapid response characteristics of the motor, the dolphin is very cool to open whether it is acceleration or linearity.
Of course, it will not give you a strong sense of pushing back, mainly based on ordinary daily transportation, and those who want a higher acceleration experience may need to wait for the 130kW version. Dolphin provides two different modes of ECO and Sport, the difference between the two modes is not much in terms of body feeling, just in terms of power response, sport mode is relatively fast, anyway, I did not feel it.
Kinetic energy recovery also provides standard and larger two kinds of force, both modes will not give you too strong a sense of slowing down. In order to make the user not feel uncomfortable, the dolphin adjusted to the moment of releasing the accelerator pedal, the kinetic energy recovery will not intervene immediately, but will wait for a moment and then delay the intervention.
In addition, after the kinetic energy recovery intervention, the deceleration amplitude in the stronger mode will not be too high. From the data of the dashboard, the maximum recovery power in standard mode is about 9kW, and the maximum recovery power in stronger mode is about 21kW. If you prefer strong kinetic energy recovery or even single-pedal mode, then Dolphin's kinetic energy recovery may not meet your needs.
Regarding the performance of the chassis, the dolphin's performance is very "boutique" and full of high-end feeling. The filter effect on potholed pavement is very good, but it does not give you a very soft feeling, and there is still a slight sense of support for cornering. And the rebound of the suspension when passing the speed reduction belt is relatively fast. In terms of sound insulation, the performance of the dolphin can also be said to be the best in the same level, the only discount is this sunrise tire, the tire noise will be more obvious. Opening the front hatch, we can also clearly see a thick layer of sound-absorbing material arranged around the motor. Judging from the actual test drive experience, the whole vehicle has almost no motor sound, which is very well suppressed.
Technical Stickers: Dolphin's three-electric technology and safety configuration
Dolphin is the first model of BYD e platform 3.0, which includes a new card-issuing flat line motor, a new "eight-in-one" electric drive system, and a unique IPB intelligent braking system and heat pump system in addition to the blade battery we are familiar with.
On top of Dolphin's blade battery, BYD pioneered the use of battery pack direct cold and direct heat technology, that is, covering the blade battery with direct cold and direct heat plate, replacing the traditional coolant with refrigerant, directly cooling or heating the battery, reducing indirect heat transfer loss and improving the temperature consistency of the battery pack.
The eight-in-one electric drive assembly integrates the drive motor, transmission, drive motor controller, vehicle controller (VCU), battery manager (BMS), high and low voltage DC converter (DC-DC), two-way vehicle charger (Bi-OBC), and high voltage distribution module (PDU) in one. Official data shows that the power density of the electric drive system has increased by 20%, the weight and volume have been reduced by 10% respectively, and the overall efficiency of the system has reached 89%.
