Surf byd Dolphin will be one of the cheapest electric cars in the UK when it is sold later this year.



Known as segull in China, it costs about 8,000 pounds, and the model will be more advanced for its launch in Europe and the United Kingdom, including additional safety technology.

BYD CEO Stella Lee said that although Dolphin Surf has been Don’t be cheaper for sale, it will be “the best value”.

It is not expected to cost less than 15,000 pounds from the Dacia Spring, which is the cheapest current electric car for sale, but it is likely to undermine Fiat Grande Panda and Citroën-C3 and costs less than 20,000 pounds with a range of more than 200 miles as well.

GE said that BYD will exceed UK sales in the United Kingdom last year by the end of this month, but it refused to determine the number of cars that the company was expected to be sold in 2025, or what was the long -term target.

Given that the goal of the BYD is to be the largest car maker in the world, the United Kingdom is seen as a main market for it, sales that exceed 100,000 will definitely be the goal to become a competitor from the best five from here. GE said the BYD brand awareness increased by 1 % at the beginning of 2024 to 31 % in the end.

BYD has also launched 1360 kW trucks with the brand with two shipping weapons as a competitor to the Tesla Supercharger network. He told me that there is an ambition to launch it in the United Kingdom, but this was far away.
