BYD Atto 3 is a fully electric compact SUV from BYD. It sits in the C segment and uses a five door crossover body style. The model targets urban and suburban use with a focus on efficiency and everyday practicality.
The Atto 3 uses a 60.5 kWh Blade Battery based on LFP chemistry. WLTP range reaches about 260 miles. Real world mixed driving range stays closer to 220 miles. AC charging supports up to 11 kW. DC fast charging peaks at 88 kW, taking the battery from 30 to 80 percent in around 30 minutes.

Key alternatives include the MG ZS EV and Hyundai Kona Electric. A direct comparison fits the Volkswagen ID.4 in size and use case.
