BYD Dolphin vs Wuling Bingo
Verdict
At RM100,530 versus RM67,800, the BYD Dolphin asks RM32,730 more, and the numbers show where that money goes: 94 hp against 67 hp, a 44.9 kWh battery against 31.9 kWh, 340 km range against 273 km, five seats against four, plus AEB. The Wuling Bingo fights back with a lower yearly road tax of RM20 versus RM50 and a bigger 395-litre boot despite its shorter body. For a Malaysian buyer, this is range and family usability versus price and boot practicality.
Pick the BYD Dolphin if you want the longer-range, five-seat EV with more power and AEB.
Pick the Wuling Bingo if you want the cheaper B-segment electric hatchback with the bigger boot and lower road tax.
