Cheapest Electric Car In Brazil: The Most Affordable Electric SUV In The Country Is Expected To Arrive Soon, Being The First In The Category To Cost Less Than R$ 100 Thousand.

Currently, the least expensive vehicle in this category starts at R$ 169 thousand, a much higher price than what the upcoming cheapest electric car in Brazil is expected to cost.

Electric cars are becoming increasingly popular in Brazil, but not because of their price. However, the Chinese brand BYD promises to change this perspective by bringing the first electric car to the country that costs less than R$ 100 thousand.

The Possible New Cheapest Electric SUV In Brazil

BYD has become popular in Brazil, and for that reason, the Chinese brand promises to invest more and more in the country. In recent months, the company has reported good sales results in the country, and it is expected that a new model will arrive soon.

According to information published by the blog Inside EVS from the “UOL” portal, this model will be a “new version” of the BYD Dolphin. In this sense, it is expected that this model will cost R$ 99,800, a price considered “low” by electric car standards in Brazil.

The Cheapest Electric SUV In Brazil

So far, the BYD Dolphin electric car is not yet part of the catalog of electric cars in Brazil. The cheapest model currently in this category is the Peugeot e-2008, sold at prices starting from R$ 169,990, which is R$ 70 thousand higher.

Vehicle Details

Currently, the only available information about the vehicle comes from the registration data published. Therefore, there is a possibility that the vehicle will arrive in Brazil with different characteristics. Or not!

Nonetheless, based on this data, it is expected that the BYD Dolphin, the cheapest electric car in Brazil, will have a length of 4.31 m, a width of 1.83 m, a height of 1.67 m, and a wheelbase of 2.62 m. According to the data and photos, the model is expected to be inspired by the Yuan Plus, another vehicle from BYD.

Range Can Reach 400 Km

One of the most sought-after pieces of information when it comes to electric cars is the range and the vehicle’s motor. According to the data, the BYD Dolphin’s motor will have 95 hp or 117 hp, with two battery options of 32 kWh or 45.1 kWh. In this sense, the expectation is that the vehicle will have a range between 301 and 401 km, according to the Chinese cycle.

When The Model Arrives In Brazil

Finally, the bad news is that the cheapest electric car in Brazil will not arrive in the country this year, 2024. The forecast is that the model will be ready to land on Brazilian soil only in 2025. However, of course, it is still early to confirm any certainty.

Before that, however, there is one certainty: BYD will launch a car that will be cheaper than the Peugeot e-2008. This is because the Chinese brand recently revealed the arrival of the BYD Yuan UP. According to the company, the price of this new model is expected to be around R$ 160 thousand.
