The post First Drive: BYD Dolphin — The New Rival to European City Cars appeared first on Car Revs Daily.

BYD Korea’s Dolphin compact electric hatchback is far more than just a low-cost electric vehicle (EV), positioning itself as a serious contender in the segment with strong practicality and solid driving performance. Dolphin’s greatest strength lies is its pricing. With government subsidies applied, the vehicle can effectively be purchased in the low-20 million won ($13,600) range, placing it in direct competition with key rivals — Hyundai Motor’s Casper Electric and Kia Ray EV. Consumer response has been swift. The company sold 1,202 vehicles in August, ranking fourth in the imported vehicle market here. The combination of affordability and practicality clearly resonates with buyers. The vehicle's popularity becomes easy to understand after spending time behind the wheel, particularly for first-time EV buyers or consumers seeking a practical commuter-focused second car. The base model produces 70 kilowatts, or roughly 95 horsepower. The figures appear modest, but the instant torque

Tesla and BYD are gaining ground in Korea, filling the void created by prolonged labor strikes at major domestic automakers in August. Combined domestic sales by Hyundai Motor, Kia, KGM, Renault Korea and General Motors (GM) Korea fell 28.3 percent from a year earlier to 79,601 vehicles last month, according to data from the Korea Automobile Importers & Distributors Association (KAIDA). All the five carmakers reported year-on-year declines. Hyundai Motor was hit particularly hard, with domestic sales plunging 41.1 percent to 34,333 vehicles. Production disruptions caused by a series of partial strikes by its union weighed heavily on vehicle output and deliveries. Hyundai workers staged partial walkouts from July through August, with the cumulative strike time reaching about 60 hours. This is estimated to have caused production losses of roughly 55,000 vehicles. Kia fared better, but its domestic sales still declined 7.6 percent to 40,213 units. The automaker was also affected by the

Many consumers see BYD primarily as a Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker that has recently emerged as one of the world’s top EV sellers. In Korea, BYD surpassed 10,000 units in cumulative sales less than two years after entering the market in January 2025. BYD’s rise, however, is rooted in its long-standing battery expertise, with the company building electrification capabilities for nearly two decades before becoming widely known as a major EV maker. BYD began in 1994 as a small battery manufacturer in Shenzhen, China. It later expanded into solar power and energy storage systems, developing into a broader clean technology company. The company entered the automotive industry in 2003 after acquiring Chinese automaker Qinchuan Automobile. In 2008, BYD unveiled the F3DM, the world’s first mass-produced plug-in hybrid EV. The model drew significant attention because of its approach of making the electric motor the primary source of propulsion while using the engine when greater
