BYD Dolphin — Owner’s Guide
Written and edited by Ethan Cole, Editor-in-Chief · ✓ Technically reviewed by Daniel Wei Chen — Senior Chinese Automotive Diagnostics & Repair Specialist, Sydney · 21 August 2026.
The Dolphin Dynamic holds a record across every brand we document: 126 Wh/km — the most efficient car on this site, at $635/year of government-estimated charging. The Premium trades efficiency for range.
Versions — government-verified figures
| Version | Energy / fuel | Official range | GVG annual energy cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dynamic (2023) | 126 Wh/km — site record | 410 km | $635 |
| Premium (2023, NEDC) | 142 Wh/km | 490 km† | $716 |
Figures from the Australian Government Green Vehicle Guide (21 August 2026); where entries mix NEDC and WLTP cycles we say so — never compare across cycles. Warranty: 6 years/150,000 km vehicle · 8 years/160,000 km battery (dealer-network published terms).
