BYD updates Dolphin for 2025

December 15, 2024

Here’s another leaked from China’s MIIT, since the agency has in advertently published the specs for the next iteration of the BYD Dolphin. The MIIT posting, revealed that the BYD Dolphin for 2025 got a modern facelift and will be available in three models; Model TZ180XSF (70 kW -94 hp), Model TZ200XSW (130 kW – 174 hp) and the Model TZ200XSQ (150 kW – 201 hp).

Compared with the current BYD Dolphin model, the lower front face on has been adjusted and the sides with the semi-hidden door handles and the body lines remain the same. At the rear, “BYD” logo is integrated on the taillight and at the same time, the taillight design and lower section of the rear have been adjusted.

The new Dolphin will runs on either 195/60R16 or 205/50R17 tires and it will have a wheelbase of 2700mm. It will feature similar dimension (LxWxH) of 4280mm for the length, 1770mm for its width and the height will be 1570mm. Three curb weights were declared; 1435 kg, 1480 kg, and 1600 kg, which we can assume for the three models.

There is also the optional configurations like the panoramic sunroof, front radar, front camera, rear radar, front side radar, rear side radar, side mirror camera, rear camera, black roof, rear privacy glass, high gloss film, and rim designs.

The new BYD Dolphin will still be using the company’s Blade LFP battery packs. The declared top speeds are 150 km/h, we can assume that depending on the model, it will have a different top speed. No price and exact availability but from the name itself, it is safe to assume that the new BYD Dolphin 2025 will be available next year.
