BYD Dolphin Dynamic Standard charging cost & time
| Scenario | Energy | Time | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public DC 20% → 80% | 26.9 kWh | 35 minutes | RM 37.72 |
| Public DC 0% → 100% | 44.9 kWh | 1 hours 29 minutes | RM 62.86 |
| At home (AC) 20% → 80% | 26.9 kWh | 3 hours 51 minutes | RM 11.97 |
BYD Dolphin Dynamic Standard charging time by charger power
How long the BYD Dolphin Dynamic Standard takes to charge at different charger power levels, capped by its own onboard limits.
| Charger | Power | Charge | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard outlet | 2.2 kW | 0% → 100% | 20 hours 25 minutes |
| Home wallbox | 7 kW | 0% → 100% | 6 hours 25 minutes |
| Public AC | 7 kW | 0% → 100% | 6 hours 25 minutes |
| DC fast | 60 kW | 10% → 80% | 40 minutes |
AC rows assume constant charging power and a 0% to 100% charge. Real times vary with the onboard charger, temperature, and the charger you use.
The DC fast row (10% to 80%) is anchored to a measured charging time for this model, so it reflects the real charging curve. Times still vary with temperature and conditions.
Charging speed
Based on measured data, the BYD Dolphin Dynamic Standard charges 10% → 80% on DC fast charging in about 40 minutes, peaking at around 60 kW. EV Database Dolphin 44.9 kWh peaks ~60 kW; modest LFP curve.
The BYD Dolphin Dynamic Standard is estimated to charge from 20% to 80% on public DC fast charging in about 35 minutes (standard DC).

Battery care
This car uses an LFP battery, which tolerates routine charging to 100%. Charging full now and then is fine and even helps the car read its charge level accurately.
Savings vs a petrol car
This charge adds about 173 km of range for RM 37.72. Driving the same distance on petrol would cost:
| Engine size | Petrol cost | You save |
|---|---|---|
| ≤ 1000 cc | RM 18.98 | -RM 18.74 |
| 1000–1500 cc | RM 22.43 | -RM 15.29 |
| 1500–2000 cc | RM 27.61 | -RM 10.11 |
| 2000–2500 cc | RM 32.78 | -RM 4.93 |
| > 2500 cc | RM 39.68 | RM 1.97 |
Estimated from typical combined fuel use by engine size and RON95 (BUDI95) at RM 1.99/L. Charging at home saves the most; actual figures vary with driving and conditions.
