Wir waren vor Ort: Der BYD Dolphin Surf Launch in Berlin

Are you curious about the latest trends in the world of electromobility? Then we have exciting news from Shop4ev! On May 21, 2025 we were live at the launch event of the Byd Dolphin Surf in Berlin. This innovative BYD electrical van promises to revolutionize urban mobility-and we were able to experience it up close. Here you will find out everything you need to know about this forward -looking vehicle: from design to technology to price and availability.

Angular design meets smart functionality

The Byd Dolphin Surf immediately catches the eye - in the best sense! With its compact dimensions (3,990 mm length, 1,720 mm width, 1,590 mm height), it is perfect for tight city roads and scarce parking spaces. But don't be fooled by its size: thanks to a clever design and a wheelbase of 2,500 mm, it offers space that can keep up with vehicles of the next class.

From the side it shows a dynamic, curved profile, while the broad body contour and the standard 15 or 16-inch wheels give it a sporty look. Particularly cool: The point matrix element on the C-pillar, inspired by ice crystals, ensures a "floating" roof effect. At the front, the sharp headlights with six angled light straps and integrated daytime running lights score, a roof spoiler rounds off the whole of aerodynamically. In short: the Dolphin Surf combines style with functionality in a way that is really fun in city traffic.

High-tech under the hood: Blade battery and e-platform 3.0

Attention technology fans: The BYD Dolphin Surf brings innovations to the small car segment that are usually reserved for larger models. The heart is that Blade-battery on lithium-iron-phosphate base (LFP). It is not only durable and safe, but also environmentally friendly, since it does not require poisonous heavy metals such as cobalt. Depending on the version (Active, Boost or Comfort), there are two batteries: 30 kWh or 43.2 kWh. The reach? Up to 322 km (WLTP combined) or even 507 km in city traffic - perfect for everyday urban life.

Then there is the E-platform 3.0that was specially developed for electric vehicles and the world's first 8-in-1 electric drive system. This module combines drive motor, gearbox, control units and more that saves space and increases efficiency. Loading times? With up to 85 kW direct current, the battery is loaded from 10 % to 80 % in just 30 minutes. Three performance levels are available: 65 kW (Active/Boost) or 115 kW (Comfort), with accelerations of 0-100 km/h between 9.1 and 12.1 seconds.

Place and comfort: an interior that inspires

Despite its compact external dimensions, the Dolphin Surf offers a surprising amount of space for four people. The trunk holds 308 liters - even 1,037 liters for folded back seats. Everything remains organized with 20 clever storage space. A rotating 10.1-inch touchscreen awaits you in the interior, which scores with Apple Carplay, Android Auto and the "Hi BYD" language control. The sports seats at the front offer comfort and hold, while the rear seats leave enough leg and headroom for adults. Practical: thanks to the vehicle-to-load function (V2L), you can operate devices with up to 3.3 kW directly via the battery-ideal for on the go.

Security and sustainability in the first place

Security is very important in the Dolphin Surf. The body consists of 68.2 % of high-strength steel, and the Blade battery has passed the hard nail penetration test. Airbags, an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) with lane keeping assistant, automatic emergency braking and more are standard. In addition, there is sustainability: emission -free and without harmful materials, the Dolphin Surf is a profit for you and the environment.
