What you get for the money
The Atto 3 uses BYD's Blade (LFP) battery, with a standard and an extended-range version in most markets. It is roomy for its size, well equipped as standard and comes with BYD's long warranty, which is a large part of its value case.
Atto 3 vs Tesla Model Y
The Atto 3 is smaller and cheaper than the Model Y. If you want the lowest price for a practical electric SUV, the Atto 3 wins; if you want a like-for-like Model Y rival, compare BYD's larger Sealion 7. See our BYD vs Tesla guide for the full comparison.
Buying a used Atto 3
The Atto 3 has been on sale in Australia and the UK since 2022, so used ones are common. Check the VIN to confirm the battery size and build year, look for open recalls and software updates, and ask for the service history and a battery health report.
