Updated BYD Atto 3 launched in China for 15,940 USD
The updated BYD Atto 3 electric crossover was launched in China with a starting price of 115,800 yuan (15,940 USD). It is 1,000 yuan cheaper (140 USD) than the 2024 model year car. This vehicle adopts a refreshed styling, the God’s Eye C (DiPilot 100) ADAS, and a built-in refrigerator.
The BYD Atto 3 is a compact crossover that sells under the Yuan Plus name in China and some overseas countries. This car is quite popular in China. However, the Atto 3 started losing market positions as the competition intensified. Last year, BYD delivered 275,233 units of this model domestically, down 11.1% year over year. To boost the sales volume in the fierce Chinese market, BYD launched the updated variant of the Atto 3.
