**Breaking Ground: The BYD Dolphin Surf Set to Electrify UK Roads Under £20,000**

Prepare for a revolution in the electric vehicle market as the highly anticipated BYD Dolphin Surf gears up to hit UK roads later this year. This cutting-edge electric car, previously known as the Seagull in China, promises to deliver exceptional value, making it one of the most affordable EV options available in the country.

**A Strategic Rebranding for the UK Market**

In a bold move, BYD is rebranding the Seagull as the Dolphin Surf for its European debut, enhancing its appeal with advanced safety technology tailored for the UK market. While the Dolphin Surf may not snag the title of the cheapest EV, it aims to offer unparalleled value, according to BYD’s executive vice-president, Stella Li.

**Competitive Pricing with Impressive Range**

The Dolphin Surf is poised to challenge the status quo, targeting a price point below £20,000. This positions it competitively against models like the Fiat Grande Panda and Citroën ë-C3. With a range surpassing 200 miles, this vehicle is set to redefine expectations for budget-friendly EVs in the UK.

**Battery Options and Performance Specs**

In its native China, the Dolphin Surf offers flexibility with 30kWh and 38kWh battery options, providing ranges of 190 and 252 miles respectively, as per the CLTC testing standards. Prospective buyers will also have the choice between 74bhp and 100bhp motors, ensuring a performance that meets varied driving needs.

**A Growing Presence in the UK**

Before the Dolphin Surf makes its mark, the BYD Sealion 7 is set to debut as the next addition to BYD’s growing electric lineup in the UK. The company is aggressively expanding its footprint, with UK country manager Bono Ge announcing plans to double the number of dealerships by the year’s end, aiming for a total of 150-170 in the future.

**Sales Targets and Market Ambitions**

BYD has already surpassed its previous year’s sales figures in the UK, with further ambitions to climb the ranks in the global car market. With a focus on becoming the world’s largest car manufacturer, BYD is eyeing sales figures upwards of 100,000, positioning itself as a formidable contender in the UK automotive landscape.

**Charging Infrastructure Innovations**

In a strategic move to rival Tesla’s Supercharger network, BYD has introduced its own 1360kW chargers equipped with dual charging guns. Although these innovative chargers are yet to make their way to the UK, the company has expressed a keen interest in expanding this infrastructure in the future.

Stay tuned as the BYD Dolphin Surf prepares to make waves in the UK, offering an electrifying blend of affordability, range, and innovative technology.
