About the BYD Atto 2
The BYD Atto 2, known as the Yuan Up in China, is a compact B-segment SUV designed to sit below the Atto 3 in the brand's global electric line-up. Built on the e-Platform 3.0, it features BYD's innovative Cell-to-Body (CTB) technology, which integrates the LFP Blade Battery directly into the chassis to improve structural rigidity and interior space. The Boost trim serves as the entry point for the UK market, offering a balanced 51.1kWh battery capacity and a respectable 214-mile WLTP range. It is aimed at urban drivers seeking a high-tech cabin, featuring the brand's signature 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen and standard heat pump for cold-weather efficiency.
