Is The MG4 Beaten Already?! BYD Dolphin REVIEW! + Why It's A VW ID3 & Golf Threat

Build Your Dreams aka BYD is here with its first hatchback for Britain, and it's off to a brilliant start. Sam Sheehan explores why the Dolphin is a close rival to the hot-selling MG4, and why it does Golf-like things in a class that Volkswagen fields the ID.3.

Plus, he evaluates how the interior and infotainment compare to those alternatives, and where 265 miles of claimed range ranks this newcomer. And then explores the practicality and charging capabilities of one of 2024's most exciting electric hatchbacks.

All milk floats look hilarious, but this monstaerty beat's them hand up😊

Stand on top of the white cliffs of Dover and throw your money into the sea. The experience will be very similar.

[johnkeen]

Who would pay £31, 000 for a giant mobile phone on wheels, , 3-4 year life then it will be scrap

[mohammednejad]

After 14 months and 15000 miles of driving an MG4 SELR, would I buy another one, you guessed it right, not in my life time again.

[muffinthepug]

Just shows what a rip off VW is doesn't it. Especially since they are also mostly Chinese made too

[willsmith]

Like most Chinese electrical goods, throw it away in three years cos it stops working and isn’t worth fixing.

[miile]

Flood the market with Chinese EV s, just need the infrastructure for car charging

[andysims]

From the people who gave us COVID no thanks

[desmondbeattie]

At the end of the day it is still a battery car which is so much more inconvenient to a ICE car.

[kevinwhite]

Absolute pile of crap, just like all EVs 😂

[klockwood]

Can I buy this car with an ICE.? Don’t want any make electric vehicle!

[theminegorilla]

Does it also heat my house? My BYD seal heated it very well

[davidelson]

Ahhh the naysayers having a day keyboard clicking as usual

[EJD]

You can have mine. You're welcome.

[CY.NIC]

If you have seen the Chinese BYDs go up in flames for no reason then you know why your money will do the same. How can he be so enthusiastic about this badly-made ‘thing‘.

[ericbana]

I admire your enthusiasm, I know you are getting paid for your work, but this is dead in the water.No-one in their right mind are buying chinese ev’s today.Hybrids are the future .Watch this space. A car cannot present a threat to other cars which aren’t selling !

[ellisrochlin]

threat to the golf ( think they stopped production or stopping), i would say more but i am rolling about with laughter, the dolphin might have a go at the Vauxhall Mokka ev , maybe

[carltonholmes]

Electric crap Chinese shit. Buy and lose your money. 😮

[peterarmstrong]

Acceleration is quicker than the mg4. Ive had my dolphin at 6.2 0-60... Mg4 looks like a brick, dealership back up is awful and so is reliability(yes ive experienced this!!. Makes me laugh when reviewers spend 5 minutes in a car and instantly tries to judge them 😂

[mozhlwi]

Tesla is back leading sales this quarter, it was just one quarter at the end of last year
