NEW BYD DOLPHIN VS MG4 VS CITROEN E-C3 REVIEW – WHAT'S THE BEST CHEAP ELECTRIC CAR?

EV Channels Review

This comprehensive review pits the BYD Dolphin, MG4, and Citroen e-C3 against each other to determine the best budget electric car. While the MG4 has long been the benchmark, the arrival of the e-C3 and a new entry-level Dolphin presents stiff competition. The review highlights the MG4's practicality and decent driving dynamics, though its interior and infotainment are considered dated. The BYD Dolphin impresses with its more interesting interior design, superior infotainment system, and better efficiency, making it the cheapest to run long-term. The Citroen e-C3 stands out as the most affordable upfront and offers a comfortable, SUV-like driving position with useful physical climate controls, but its rear seat space and infotainment are less impressive. Ultimately, despite reliability concerns for MG, the MG4 is crowned the winner for its all-around competence and value, though the competition is now much stronger in the affordable EV segment.
