Recently, BYD launched a panel van based on the Dolphin in the UK, named DolphinCargoe-Van. The local price is 29,300 pounds, roughly 264,000 RMB, and pre-orders have now opened at authorized BYD stores in the UK.
This vehicle is modified from the familiar home-use Dolphin. BYD removes the rear seats and adds a metal partition behind the front row. The modified vehicle offers a loading capacity of 1,093 liters and also provides 47 liters of hidden storage space, transforming the original passenger car into a light commercial vehicle. That is to say, it is the "Cargo Version Dolphin", specifically targeting light logistics markets such as urban distribution, express delivery, repair services, etc.
Max length 1.25 meters, max width 1.16 meters, width between wheel arches about 1.02 meters, height 0.71 meters. A 47-liter small compartment is also hidden under the floor. The floor has been treated for wear resistance. The rear of the vehicle offers two choices: enclosed baffle or retaining the window, making it convenient for different merchants to select as needed.
Regarding power, the new car continues to adopt the Dolphin's power system, equipped with a 60.4kWh Blade Battery and a 204 horsepower motor. The combined range can reach 426 kilometers, and the urban driving range can reach up to about 558 kilometers.
In terms of configuration, the vehicle comes standard with seat heating, steering wheel heating, 360-degree panoramic vision, and 220V external discharge functionality, allowing direct connection of electrical equipment for repairs or street vending.
The new car is marketed in the UK, an important step for BYD to complete its European product layout, filling the passenger and light commercial vehicle product lines. Overall, the launch performance needs market validation, and it is expected to be promoted to other European countries in the future.
BYD's strategy this year is to go global and target international markets. In May, BYD sold a total of 160,600 vehicles overseas, an increase of 80.7% year-on-year. Overseas sales accounted for more than 42% of total sales, and BYD's Ro-Ro ships are nearly insufficient. Recently, BYD sold the Denza Z9GT to Europe, making a grand impression.
BYD has already built or plans to build factories in countries such as Brazil, Thailand, Uzbekistan, Turkey, and Hungary. Ultimately, going global, having a solid product is the first step, but it is just the first step. If every subsequent step is taken firmly, then more and more foreigners who are "hooked" on domestic cars, or even "obsessed", will become more numerous.
