EA1 - BYD Dolphin 60kW - or similar

An all-electric family hatchback

BYD is recognized globally as a leading manufacturer of innovative electric vehicles. The brand’s Dolphin 60kW further solidifies its reputation, showcasing BYD’s expertise in creating efficient and eco-friendly cars.

The BYD Dolphin 60kW is the perfect car for environmentally conscious families traveling in Iceland. It’s spacious enough to seat five people, offers comfort for long journeys, and its electric battery provides sufficient range to alleviate any concerns about charging. It’s an excellent choice for a low-emissions Icelandic road trip.

As an electric vehicle (EV), the BYD Dolphin 60kW is not suitable for trips into the highlands. For journeys to areas like Landmannalaugar, we recommend a 4x4 SUV. Standard EVs are not equipped to handle unpaved F-roads or river crossings.

However, for exploring the Ring Road, south Iceland, or the Reykjavík area, the BYD Dolphin 60kW is an ideal option.

What features does a BYD Dolphin 60kW have?

The BYD Dolphin 60kW is a 5-door, 5-seater electric vehicle with an automatic gearbox, as is standard for EVs. With Höldur, the vehicle comes equipped with:

• A Bluetooth connection
• Heated front seats
• Air conditioning
• Power windows
• Adjustable power steering
• Remote locking
• Anti-lock brakes.

The Dolphin 60kW is also completely zero-emissions, making it a sustainable choice for travelers in Iceland. Many visitor destinations and hotels offer charging points, often free of charge.

Who can hire a BYD Dolphin 60kW?

The BYD Dolphin 60kW is an excellent choice for families and groups covering longer distances in Iceland. If you need something larger, consider the BYD Tang or the Maxus Euniq 5 or 6. Alternatively, you could opt for a 4x4 SUV.

In Iceland, you must be at least 20 years old to rent electric cars like the BYD Dolphin 60kW. You will also need:
