How much does the BYD Dolphin Comfort 60.4 kWh cost in Portugal?

As of 1 July 2026: a BYD Dolphin Comfort 60.4 kWh starts at €35,990. Over 5 years it costs about €39,246 to own in Portugal — that's €654/month and €0.65/km — including depreciation, charging, maintenance, insurance, road tax and financing.

Fundo Ambiental (Environmental Fund purchase incentive): the state grant of 4 000 € towards a new 100% electric car exists in 2026, but it is conditional: the buyer must scrap a combustion-engine vehicle more than 10 years old, the EV must cost ≤ 38 500 € (≤ 55 000 € for models with more than 5 seats), and it is one grant per beneficiary, first come, first served until the 10 000 000 € budget runs out (applications 11 Jun to 27 Jul 2026). Plug-in hybrids are not eligible. Several EVs in this bracket sit above the cap (Tesla Model Y 39 990 €, Volvo EX30 38 632 €), so most buyers do not qualify. We show this grant separately and do not include it in the totals above. Source: Fundo Ambiental, as of . Always confirm the current conditions before buying.
