BYD Atto 3

I have booked one for myself.I fell in love with this car even before it launched in India.I was following the updates keenly from global launches.The car has got comfort,safety,performance,looks and features.Pure electric born suv with great claimed range of 521 km.I can't wait to get the delivery in January 2023.For those who planning for an EV with a premium category features and comfort.But still don't want to get into Volvo xc40 recharge, Kia ev6 and Hyundai ionic side of the budget.This is the best alternative.I would suggest, the blade battery technology has no match when it comes to safety as well as performance with efficiency too.

The Legend of Cars.

The car has a gorgeous and sexy appearance which attracts people's mind. It makes your journey memorable. It gives a glamorous entry in any party you visit. So,there is a big salute to this legend heaven cum car.

More Expert Reviews on Atto 3 and Passat

BYD ATTO3 First Drive Review

By Ninad Ambre12 Dec 2022

The BYD ATTO 3 is a five-seater electric SUV positioned above the E6 MPV. This new electric SUV might be new to the Indian market but is a successful global model. It's based on the brand’s ‘Dragon Face 3.0’ design philosophy which lends the vehicle attractive styling. The tastefully done-up elements comprise a diffused chrome grille with sleek LED headlamps, funky alloys, brushed silver and aluminium accents, and wrap-around LED tail lamps with a light bar. It's a mid-sized SUV with a compact footprint and proportions. Yet, it stands out be it for its nice styling outside or within.

Volkswagen Passat Review: Pros and Cons

By Vikrant Singh01 Aug 2019

Yes, the Volkswagen Passat costs Rs 40 lakhs on the road. And no, it doesn’t command the same snob value as an Audi or a BMW or a Mercedes. Maybe not even as much as a Volvo or a Jaguar.
