BYD Atto 2

About the BYD Atto 2 

The BYD Atto 2 brings the brand’s electric SUV formula into a smaller and more affordable package. Compact enough for busy suburban streets but with useful interior and luggage space, it is aimed at commuters, smaller households and first-time EV buyers. In our BYD Atto 2 car reviews, we examine whether its sharp pricing, generous equipment and city-friendly dimensions add up to a compelling everyday electric car.

Both Atto 2 variants use a 130kW front-mounted motor and offer up to 345km of WLTP driving range. Performance is brisk enough for daily driving rather than overtly sporty, while the elevated seating position, compact footprint and relatively tight turning circle should suit urban use. Inside, the Atto 2 combines BYD’s familiar rotating touchscreen with a 380-litre boot and a cabin that makes good use of the car’s modest exterior dimensions.

Open Road’s BYD Atto 2 coverage looks at real-world range, charging, ride comfort, cabin space, technology and how it compares with other affordable EVs in Australia. If you are choosing between Atto 2 variants or comparing it with other compact electric cars, this guide will help you understand what it offers and whether it suits the way you drive.
