BYD launches the ATTO 3 in India
BYD has launched a much-awaited electric SUV–the ATTO 3–in India at INR 33.99 lakh. The ATTO 3 is based on BYD’s all-new e-platform 3.0. The new electric SUV is offered in a single variant which is powered by a 60.48 kWh battery pack and it provides an ARAI-certified range of 521 km.
Design
The new ATTO 3’s design is based on the brand’s own Dragon Face 3.0 design language. The EV’s front fascia features a sleek bumper with a broad chrome bar at the centre–which is further extended to the slim LED headlamps with DRLs. And at the rear, the car comes with split LED tail lamps; the tail lights are connected by a horizontal light bar. And just below the rear windshield, the EV gets a ‘Build Your Dreams’ inscription.
The EV’s interior is offered in two colour options: Eclipse blue and Hazy grey. The seats are leather-upholstered and the rear seat comes with a 60:40 split feature–which expands the boot space up to 1340-litre. On the dashboard is a steering wheel with mounted control buttons (for audio, phone, and AC) and behind it is a 5-inch digital instrument console that displays a speedometer and tachometer dial. At the centre is a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen infotainment system that is compatible with both Apple Carplay and Android Auto.
