The BYD Dolphin will be launched in Malaysia next week, but before the main event, a camouflaged unit has been sighted at IOI Mall Puchong. How much do you think the EV will be priced from?
, the electric vehicle has been sighted in the wild at IOI Mall Puchong. This example was sighted wearing a generous amount of camouflage to disguise its identity, but the general shape of the car and the phrase “A New Wave Is Coming” on the sides are obvious giveaways – the latter was used forBased on these photos, the Malaysian-spec Dolphin will be offered with advanced driver assistance systems , as suggested by the sensor near the rear-view mirror.
The wrapped car was photographed next to the previous-generation Toyota Vios, which provides a better sense of its size. Official figures place the Dolphin at 4,150 mm long, 1,770 mm wide, 1,570 mm tall and with a wheelbase of 2,700 mm. Disregarding length because the Vios is a sedan whereas the Dolphin is a hatchback, the EV is wider by 40 mm.
For a comparison involving something in hatchback territory, the Honda City Hatchback is 4,345 mm long, 1,748 mm wide, 1,488 mm tall and has a wheelbase of 2,600 mm. That makes it longer overall than the Dolphin, although its narrower, not as tall and is down on wheelbase.

发布在即！身披迷彩的比亚迪海豚 BYD Dolphin 本地现身 - Paul Tan 汽车资讯网连日来，BYD Malaysia已释出了不少预告向外界明示他们正准备在我国推出品牌旗下的第二款新车。虽然官方始终没有道明主角的身份，但众所周知，这款新车便是比亚迪海洋系列的海豚（Dolphin）。 而且在这之前，官方也已经宣布，新车将在7月28日之前正式发布，目前也已经向民众开放兴趣注册，对该车感兴趣的潜在买家可在7月28日到30日前往雪兰莪1 Utama购物商场进行试驾。 眼下距离新车正式发布的日子还有一个星期，今天我们便在雪兰莪浦种的IOI购物商场发现这款新车的踪迹，虽然当时该车已铺上一层迷彩伪装，但从车身轮廓等细节来看，它百分之百是海豚。 事实上，这款海豚已在我们的邻国，即泰国和新加坡市售。在泰国，海豚甫在上周（6日）发布，当地的标准版售价为699,999泰铢，增程版售价则是859,999泰铢。凭借亲民的价格，海豚来马后有望成为本地价格最便宜的电动车。 海豚的车身长度达到4,125mm、车身宽度1,770mm、车身高度1,570mm，轴距则是2,700mm。以大家熟悉的Perodua Myvi和Volkswagen Golf MK8来对比的话，它的车身长度和宽度介于Myvi和Golf之间，但轴距却比Golf和Myvi都还要长，属于C-Segment的Golf的轴距仅为2,619mm。 性能版的比亚迪海豚搭载的是一组可输出174匹马力和290Nm的电动马达，配合一组自家研发的“刀片电池”，这组电池采用的是磷酸铁锂为主原料，号称安全性更高，一旦电池遭受外来硬物破坏其硬体结构后更不容易起火自燃，而且还号称拥有更好的寿命表现，充电4,500次后的电池芯能衰退少于20%。 这组电池的设计容量为44.9kWh，充满电后的最长续航里程为401公里，若使用标准的7kW AC充电桩需要6小时25分充满电，而使用60kW的DC快充技术则只需30分钟就可从30%充电到80%。 而加速性能则是它的最大亮点，别看它只是一辆五门掀背EV而且马力不到180匹，凭借电动马达瞬间就能直接输出最完整的290Nm扭力特性，官方公布它的0-50km/h加速成绩竟然只需3秒，虽然这并非是0-100的加速成绩，但对于一款售价亲民的五门掀背电动车来说还是够用有余！ 此外海豚还有一款定位比较入门、性能也比较入门的入门款版本，它同样搭载单组的电动马达但马力输出降低到94匹，扭力输出也仅有180Nm，而电池容量也缩水到30.7kWh，若使用40kW的DC快充技术只需30分钟就可从30%充电到80%，而且它的0-50km/h加速性能依然达到不俗的3.9秒，而且续航里程在电池容量较小的前提下却比性能版的海豚多了4公里，达到405公里。
