[Image: BYD]South Africa just got its cheapest electric car, even though it’s got a name that sounds more like a surfboard brand than a city hatchback. The BYD Dolphin Surf has officially splashed down, and while the name might get you laughed out of a braai, the price tag will have you laughing all the way to the bank. The Dynamic throws in wireless charging and a steering wheel that actually adjusts both ways. This isn’t just about making EVs available; it’s about making them a viable, attractive option for everyday South Africans. The Dolphin Surf may just be the EV that gets ordinary South Africans buzzing (quietly) down the road.
