Safety

Additionally, it received a 5-star rating from EURO NCAP for safety.

Spacious Interior

The interior of the SUV is roomy, and it can comfortably fit 5 passengers. The middle seat passenger in the back will feel more comfortable thanks to the flat floor in the back. Additionally, the cabin feels airy thanks to the panoramic sunroof.

Cons

High Pricing

The BYD ATTO 3 is a bit expensive. The pricing of the electric SUV is Rs 33.99 lakh (ex-showroom), which is more expensive when compared to similar-sized vehicles from other brands.

Brand Identity

The majority of people in India are still unaware of Build Your Dream (BYD), a new brand. The BYD brand name may also encounter some sort of backlash because it is a Chinese brand.

Sales & Service Network

BYD is currently establishing its nationwide sales and service network. It is still uncertain how well the brand's sales and after-sales systems work.

Verdict: Potential customers can become turned off by the BYD ATTO 4 electric's price tag. The ATTO 3's price could have been a little low given that the Hyundai Kona, MG ZS EV, and Tata Nexon EV are all available for less than Rs 30 lakh.
