Thanks to its list price, practicality and relatively plush interior, the BYD Dolphin looks like a decent alternative to the Vauxhall Corsa Electric and MG4 EV. True, those rivals handle better and they can charge more quickly, but the Dolphin is comfortable and drives well enough for a small car. The smaller battery versions make the most sense, with plenty of kit and enough performance for the price.

Top-spec Design trim gets a panoramic roof, rear privacy glass and dual-tone exterior paint.

With a 201bhp motor, Comfort and Design cars are genuinely nippy – we recorded a 0-60mph time of 6.8 seconds in our tests.
