About the BYD Dolphin Surf

The BYD Dolphin Surf arrived on the leasing market in 2025 as one of the UK’s most affordable new electric vehicles.

It’s a stablemate of the slightly larger BYD Dolphin but also features more exuberant, youthful and sporty styling, complete with a large rear spoiler.

BYD says the Dolphin Surf is a small car that goes big on tech, with a 10.1-inch rotating touchscreen being one of its party pieces.

There are also fun flourishes in the cabin, including cyber punk-inspired air vents.

Why lease the BYD Dolphin Surf?

If you’re looking for a cool-looking urban EV that won’t break the bank, the BYD Dolphin Surf is well worth a look.

There are two battery sizes to choose from; entry-level models utilize a small 30 kWh that unlocks a 137-mile max range, while a larger 43.2 kWh battery ups the range to 200 miles.

All models are well equipped as standard, with the entry-level ‘Active’ trim featuring a 10.1-inch rotatable touchscreen, vegan leather upholstery, and full suite of driver assistance and safety tech, including intelligent cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure assist and intelligent high-beam control.

The BYD Dolphin Surf is also surprisingly practical, coming with a generous 308-litre boot which trumps rivals like the MINI Cooper Electric or the Hyundai Inster.

Which BYD Dolphin Surf powertrain is right for me?

Electric

There’s a choice of two batteries, both BYD’s patented ‘Blade’ units, which provide a safe body structure that’s unique to electric cars. A 30 kWh battery provides power of 87 PS and a range of up to 137 miles. A larger 43.2 kWh battery provides up to 156 PS (with Comfort models) and increases the range to 200 miles. DC rapid charging at 85 kW can restore the energy from 10% to 80% in 30 mins.

Which BYD Dolphin Surf trim level should I lease?

Active

Active

The entry-level Active grade brings you a 10.1-inch rotating touchscreen, electrically-adjustable heated exterior mirrors, and vegan leather upholstery. Steel wheels are clad in hubcaps. You’re limited to the 30 kWh battery.

Boost

Boost

The mid-level Boost trim unlocks the larger 43.2 kWh battery and also features rain-sensing wipers, 16-inch alloys, and an electrically-adjustable driver’s seat. 

Comfort

Comfort

Range-topping Comfort models boast a 360-degree surround view camera, wireless charging, heated front seats, and a premium sound system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Comfort variants also have more power at 156 PS.
