BYD’s ATTO 3, the first A-class high-performance SUV built on the firm’s e-platform 3.0, was launched in Singapore on July 8, making its debut among ASEAN countries.

The new model follows BYD’s Dragon Face 3.0 design language with a sporty-themed interior design that is specifically created for youthful clients, under the direction of BYD’s lead designer Wolfgang Egger. The new vehicle is 4455/1875/1615mm in size and has a wheelbase of 2720mm. The car has a basic 150kW motor that allows it to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds. The EV has a range of 480 KMs on a single charge.

The ATTO 3 is the moniker given to the BYD Yuan Plus in foreign markets. The lowest time unit in physics, the “attosecond,” is the source of inspiration for ATTO. The four key benefits of this new product, which was created for high-performance automobiles, are beauty, intelligence, efficiency, and safety.

On February 19, 2022, BYD’s ATTO 3 hit the Australian passenger vehicle market. The official guide price of the vehicle ranges from 44,990 to 47,990 AUD ($30,705 – $32,753). At the same time, the ATTO 3 is specially equipped with an overseas version of the ecosystem app for the Australian market.
