By Nub News Reporter 19th Aug 2026
A new chapter in compact hybrid motoring has arrived, and the BYD DOLPHIN G DM-i is ready to make a big impression.
Combining BYD's latest DM 5.0 Super Hybrid technology with the practicality of a five-door hatchback, the DOLPHIN G DM-i is designed for drivers who want the benefits of electric driving without having to commit to a fully electric car.
And for customers across Staffordshire, the exciting new model is available through out motor partner BYD Stoke, part of Swansway Motor Group.
Technology You'll Actually Want to Use
Technology is another area where the DOLPHIN G DM-i aims to stand apart.
Depending on specification, customers can expect features including:
- Up to a 12.8-inch infotainment touchscreen
- Google built-in, including Google Maps, Google Assistant and Google Play on selected versions
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- 8.8-inch digital instrument display
- NFC smartphone key access
- Wireless smartphone charging
- Intelligent voice control
- 360-degree camera
- Front and rear parking sensors
- Head-up display on selected versions
- Panoramic roof with electric sunshade on selected versions
- Heated front seats and steering wheel on higher specifications
- Multi-colour ambient lighting
- Automatic air conditioning
The combination of a large central touchscreen, digital driver information and smartphone connectivity gives the DOLPHIN G DM-i a modern, technology-focused interior.
Vehicle-to-Load: More Than Just a Car
Higher-specification versions also introduce Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology.
V2L allows the car's battery to supply power to compatible external devices, meaning your DOLPHIN G DM-i can become a portable power source. Whether you're charging devices, powering a coffee machine or adding convenience to a weekend away, it's a clever feature that adds another dimension to the car.
Parking is also made easier with features such as front and rear parking sensors and a 360-degree camera available on higher specifications.
