A few weeks back, BYD privatised its popular e6 model and launched it at a price of Rs 29.15 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. It was earlier available for commercial fleet only but now the carmaker has delivered over 450 units of the electric car. Now, BYD is gearing up for Atto 3 and ahead of its official launch in India, the features and spec details of the same are out. Side by side, the company is launching dealers across India, making it easier for private buyers to come and experience the EVs up close and personal.
The Atto 3 electric SUV will be launched on the 11th of October. We expect the car to be brought in two battery packs – standard model with a 49.92 kWh battery pack and a long range version with a 60.49 kWh battery pack. The former offers a driving range of 345 km compared to the 420 km offered with the long-range battery. Performance-wise, the Atto 3 can do 0 to 100 kmph sprint in just 7.3 seconds which is quite impressive.
The upcoming BYD Atto 3 electric SUV uses a permanent magnet synchronous motor that pumps out a peak power and torque of 201 bhp and 310 Nm, respectively. This upcoming SUV can be fully charged in just 60 minutes, thanks to the 60kW DC fast charger. The Atto 3 can also be charged via the Type 2 and 3-pin AC chargers too.
