About the BYD Atto 3
The BYD Atto 3 is a compact electric SUV that serves as the brand's first global model built on the dedicated e-Platform 3.0. It is notable for its 'Blade Battery' technology, which uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry in a cell-to-pack arrangement for improved safety and space efficiency. The 'Design' trim is the range-topping variant, featuring a rotating 15.6-inch touchscreen and a unique interior inspired by fitness equipment, including guitar-string door pockets. While it prioritises comfort and efficiency over sporty handling, its 204 PS motor provides competitive performance for the C-segment SUV class.
