I have a dolphin in Australia. I am having trouble connecting the wireless CarPlay that was added in the last update. I might need to reboot the infotainment system - so I have read. Anyone know how to do that?

Thank you. Very useful. After the recent software update I am able to connect my iPhone 12 with bluetooth and charge wireless. Excellent feature. A bit tricky tho. My constant problem is that CarPlay is in dark mode and will not change according to daylight/night. Very annoying, specially when using Waze during daytime and wearing sunglasses.... will try some of the tricks here, I didn't know about the drop down meny.

Excellent and very useful video. The see-through view enables you to check under your car and see if you've pulled into a disabled or parent and child space. This is a useful feature. In other countries they have an app to enable the 360 camera to act as a dash cam. this would be so useful here and could lower insurance premiums. I really hope they'll bring this feature to UK specced cars. Also wish we had seat ventilation in the UK. I had this on a previous Niro and found it excellent in the summer.

I love this car, not sure if I would own it but I'm considering it, 2nd hand for 20k Eur with less than 20,000 kms... Problem is if you want this car you "must" use it a a CSS charge car only, cause apart from that format all the rest is really slow to charge... Renault 5 is probably the best EV looking apart from this Honda...

Great review. I would have liked to have seen a pros and cons section and some comparisons to other similar sized EVs but you've captured the main features of the Dolphin. I'm going to see one in the flesh later this week and will probably get one. This is pretty heavily influenced by the very poor trade-in value of my iD3 and the fantastic current PCP offers on the Dolphin.

Only one of the USB ports is a data port. If you look at the symbol on the ports, they are different. One will charge only, the other will work for data as well as charge. In Australia, the USB A port is the data port and the USB C is for charging. Latest update in Australia has wireless Apple CarPlay.
@theinterfacecars
@theinterfacecars 16 күн бұрын
Hi Robert, thanks for watching! Yep that's right. On this UK version of the car, the port on the right is for data and the left one is just charging. Unfortunately we don't have wireless CarPlay yet, but hopefully it will be rolled out soon 🙂

Thank you for the tip! You can also try to delete the Dolphin on your iPhone and setup new. Sometimes, restarting the Android OS on the big screen helps. This can be done by holding the volume knob for several seconds until the system restarts. Thailand meanwhile got the update with wireless CarPlay and it works very good.

The Dolphin is actually the size of a VW ID.3, not a Polo. I agree it is better than an ID.3. Your comments about wind noise surprised me. The Atto 3 was absolutely terrible for wind noise at 70 mph+, absolute deal breaker. But I didn’t get that on the Dolphin. I loved its ride, comfort and performance. All really good. Surprised they are still delivering Dolphins on LingLong tyres. They were going to switch to Hankook … I agree with your conclusion. And yes I would buy one too. Just discovered your channel today and have subscribed.

I'm buying a GV60 because it's luxurious, quiet, and ferociously fast. Like most people who own an EV (regardless of brand), It'll be charged at home, so the fact I may not find a charger 1000's of miles away in the middle of Nebraska isn't a deal breaker. The loudest EV haters tend to be those who live their entire lives within a 50 mile radius from where they were born, and salty about being so poor they can't afford a used Corolla. No amount of common sense will help them.
