2023 BYD Atto 3 Extended Range review
Less than 12 months ago, BYD hadn’t delivered a car in Australia. As it stands right now, it’s the second-biggest electric car brand in the country behind Tesla.
No matter how you spin it, that’s impressive. Even more impressive? It’s done that with just one model; the Atto 3 we have on test here.
A few things have changed since the Atto 3 debuted Down Under. Its price has risen, for starters, and it’s under pressure from a raft of new competitors from MG and GWM offering smaller, cheaper electric cars for buyers on a budget.
At one point the Atto 3 was Australia’s cheapest new electric car, as of August 2023 even the base model is close to $10,000 more expensive than the smaller BYD Dolphin and MG 4.
