The BYD Yuan (Chinese: 比亚迪元) is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD Auto, slotting below the BYD Song compact crossover. It is part of BYD's "Dynasty Series" of production vehicles, and is named after the Yuan dynasty.
Released since March 2016, the BYD Yuan is currently available only as an all-electric vehicle, although previously a gasoline and a plug-in hybrid version were also offered. The gasoline version of BYD Yuan was sold since 2015 as the BYD S1 before being renamed and becoming part of the Yuan family. In some markets the S1 name was kept, and reused even for the all-electric version. The BYD S2 is an all-electric subcompact crossover that is essentially a rebadged Yuan, shorter than the original Yuan and the S1, and was launched in 2019.
The battery electric Yuan Plus variant was revealed in July 2021. It is marketed as the BYD Yuan Plus (or BYD Atto 3 in many markets). Compared to the first generation, it is classified as a compact crossover and features slightly larger dimensions, a more upmarket design, and BYD's proprietary blade battery. In March 2024, the second generation Yuan called the Yuan Up was launched, slotting under the Yuan Plus and continue to serve as BYD's subcompact crossover offering.
