New Neta Aya: Dolphin Mini Rival Arrives in September with More Power and Good Price. Will It Succeed?
The Neta Aya, one of the latest releases in the electric car market, promises to shake up the competition. With more power and an attractive price, it arrives in September to directly challenge models like the Dolphin Mini. But will it succeed?
The Neta Aya is the bet of the Chinese brand Neta, which, despite being relatively new in the market, has already made a good name for itself by selling over 420,000 cars since its foundation nearly 10 years ago. Compared to the Dolphin Mini, the Neta Aya comes with a more powerful engine of 95 horsepower, while the rival has only 75 horsepower. This translates to an acceleration of 0 to 100 km/h in 12 seconds, compared to 14.9 seconds for the Dolphin Mini.
Neta Aya Motor
The Neta Aya has a torque of 15.3 kgfm, surpassing the 13.8 kgfm of the Dolphin Mini. The 40.7 kWh battery allows for fast charging, going from 10% to 80% in about 30 minutes when connected to a 80 kW DC source. In terms of range, the Neta Aya does not disappoint, offering a good cost-benefit ratio for those looking for an affordable and efficient electric car.

Design and Comfort
Aesthetically, the Neta Aya stands out with Full LED headlights and a modern design. The interior is well-equipped, featuring a 14-inch screen in the dashboard and support for Apple CarPlay, but it lacks some luxury touches, such as soft-touch finishes on the doors. Nevertheless, it offers comfort and practical functionalities, such as a wireless charger and a complete ADAS system in the more expensive version, ensuring a safe and comfortable driving experience.
Comparison with the Dolphin Mini
The Dolphin Mini is a well-established model and has its advantages, such as a compact design and competitive price. However, the Neta Aya stands out by offering more interior space and better performance specifications. In terms of price, the Neta Aya is also competitive, starting at R$ 122,900 in the base version and going up to R$ 134,000 in the full version.
Will the Neta Aya Succeed?
Will the Neta Aya succeed? Well, it has all the ingredients to be a hit: power, good price, and an attractive design. Neta is investing heavily, with plans to open 30 dealerships by the end of 2024 and 70 by 2025, which shows a serious commitment to the market.
The Neta Aya is a good alternative to the Dolphin Mini, especially for those looking for a more powerful and well-equipped electric car. But, as always, the final decision rests with the consumer. The only option is to wait for September to arrive and get a close look at this new model that promises to shake up the electric car market in Brazil. Will the Neta Aya succeed? Only time will tell.
