I’ve had my BYD Dolphin for a little while now, and while I really enjoy it, there are a few things I think could be improved to make it even better. I thought I’d share some ideas and start a discussion. Maybe some of these features already exist in other markets, or they could come with future updates.
First, I really wish the Dolphin came with a built-in dashcam as standard. From what I’ve read, some countries already have a BYD-supported dashcam system that integrates with the car’s software, but it’s not available here in Australia. It seems like BYD is almost there with the feature, so why not just include it for everyone? It feels like a no-brainer to me.
Another thing is the voice assistant. Right now, my Dolphin only has an American-accented female voice, which can get a little grating over time. An option to download a French voice, but that’s not very helpful unless you speak French. It would be great if BYD offered more voice options or even allowed some customization, so drivers could pick something that suits their preferences better. I’m curious if other markets have more variety.
The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system could use a big improvement. It’s a great concept but poorly executed right now. The loud warnings and constant alerts about speed limits are more distracting than helpful. A visual-only warning would be much better, maybe changing the speedometer color or adding a subtle on-screen indicator. That way, the feature would still be useful without being so disruptive.
These are just a few things I’ve been thinking about, and I’m sure other Dolphin owners have ideas too. What would you like to see improved?
