Common Problems with the
2025–2026 BYD Dolphin

Buying Tips for 2025–2026 BYD Dolphin

• Evaluate the firmness and comfort of the seats during a test drive, as some owners find the front seat bases overly soft for long journeys.
• Test the climate control system thoroughly; it relies heavily on the touchscreen and can sometimes be slow to respond.
• Check for the latest over-the-air (OTA) software updates, which significantly improve the translation and responsiveness of the infotainment.
• Inspect the low-rolling-resistance tyres for uneven wear, as the instant torque can accelerate front tyre degradation.
• Check 12V battery condition if the car has been sitting idle on dealer forecourts.
• Ensure the boot floor and load cover are intact, as the plastics in the cargo area are somewhat scratch-prone.
