The BYD ATTO 2 is a compact electric SUV that sits between the smaller BYD Dolphin and the larger ATTO 3 in the line up. It is built on BYD’s dedicated e-Platform 3.0 for EVs and uses the company’s Blade Battery with LFP chemistry, integrated into the body using Cell-to-Body (CTB) construction for improved safety, rigidity and interior space.
Designed mainly as an urban EV, the ATTO 2 combines a relatively small footprint (around 4.3 m long) with a spacious cabin, 400 litre boot (expanding to 1,340 litres with the rear seats folded), a panoramic roof and high quality vegan leather interior. It features a rotatable central touchscreen with integrated navigation, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, OTA software updates, a heat pump as standard, V2L (Vehicle to Load) capability and a comprehensive driver assistance suite.
The ATTO 2 comes in two trims in the UK: Boost and Comfort. Both are front wheel drive and share the same basic body and interior concept, but differ in battery size, range, power and DC charging performance. EV Database currently lists the smaller battery version with a usable capacity of 45.1 kWh and an estimated real world range of around 150 miles, with WLTP combined quoted at up to 214 miles for the Boost and up to 261 miles for the Comfort.

Both trims share the same basic design: short overhangs, LED lighting, BYD’s “dragon face” front end, a panoramic roof and a focus on urban manoeuvrability with a relatively tight turning circle.
