2025 BYD Atto 3 price and specs

The BYD Atto 3 is now more affordable than ever before with the introduction of a new entry-level Essential variant.

This features the 49.92kWh Blade battery of last year’s Standard Range model, but loses some features – like a panoramic sunroof and wireless phone charger – to bring the cost of entry down to just $39,990 before on-road costs.

The Atto 3 range mid-sized electric SUV previously opened at $44,499 before on-road costs.

The Extended Range variant has also received a $2509 price cut, though it hasn’t lost any features.

BYD has confirmed the Atto 3 now has BYD Digital Key functionality, allowing you to unlock your car using your mobile phone.

CarExpert understands model year 2025 vehicles were due here in March, however industrial action at Australian ports could affect this timing.
