BYD ATTO 3 has already attracted attention last November when Thai consumers queued to purchase. Being crowned as "Best EV SUV" in Thailand represents another prestigious stamp of approval for this promising new player. So far, BYD has shipped over 10,000 units of BYD ATTO 3 to the Thai market. According to AutoLife, the registration volume of this model in January and February was 1,040 and 2,068 respectively, ranking first in Thailand's pure electric vehicle registrations for two consecutive months.
According to Drive Car of the Year, BYD ATTO 3 is proof that an electric car can offer as much technology as it does personality. Based on the brand’s latest EV platform (e-Platform 3.0), the car features an 8-in-1 high-efficiency electric powertrain, and a sporty interior for young users with Dragon Face 3.0 design language, offering a smooth and easy driving experience. Besides, it is one of the most affordable electric vehicles in Australia.
