Chinese electric vehicle giant, Build Your Dreams (BYD) has revealed the updated Atto 3 electric SUV for the 2024 model year. The MY2024 BYD Atto 3 arrives with subtle upgrades over the outgoing model. The design language remains unchanged on the 2024 Atto 3 but there are cosmetic and feature changes including a new infotainment system.

The 2024 BYD Atto 3 now comes with a new Cosmos Black colour option that brings a more premium look to the SUV. The model also gets a new gloss black finish on the chrome window surrounds, while the D-pillar insert is also finished in gloss black. The Build Your Dreams badge on the tailgate has been shortened to just the ‘BYD’ logo. The electric offering also gets new 18-inch alloy wheels that now get wider 235/50 R18, as opposed to 215/55 R18 tyres. The changes were made after customers in international markets reported a subpar grip from the rubber.

The cabin layout remains the same but the big update on the 2024 Atto 3 is the new infotainment screen. The model uses a larger 15.6-inch touchscreen system from the new Seal EV, as against the 12.8-inch unit on the current model. The screen continues to get the rotating feature enabling it in landscape and portrait modes. The cabin also features a new dark blue and black colour scheme, which exudes a fresh look to the interior.

BYD has also introduced software updates including the new ‘Intelligent Start’ system that allows the driver to start the car by pressing the brake pedal. The new infotainment unit also comes with Amazon Music support, a web browser, a karaoke function and a BYD app store. Other upgrades include a thicker sunroof shade, expanded voice recognition software, quieter navigation and proximity alarm alerts, as well as a new anti-theft alarm sound. The interior ambient lighting is also linked to Spotify songs being played.

The electric motor is good for 201 bhp and 310 Nm of peak torque. A larger 60.5 kWh battery pack also powers the SUV with a claimed range of 420 (WLTP) on a single charge in international markets, while the India-spec version offers a range of 521 km (ARAI-certified).
