 Model Overview
BYD ATTO 3 is a new energy, new power, and pure electric passenger car. It is the kind of
environmentally sustainable product that BYD is dedicated to making. It features a load-bearing
body, front-to-rear longitudinal beam, and power battery pack integrated with the body to fully
ensure the safety of the battery and entire vehicle.

BYD ATTO 3 is driven by electric motors in various working conditions, and therefore can
achieve zero emissions.

Being a pure electric vehicle, the BYD ATTO 3 features very low levels of internal and external
noise, providing an exceptional driving and riding experience unmatched by any internal
combustion vehicle.

The safety of the high-voltage system is a priority in this vehicle's design, so that the safety of
the driver and passengers can be guaranteed in case of a collision.

This vehicle is equipped with a battery management unit that continually monitors its power
battery, adjusts power output based on various performance indicators such as voltage and
current of each battery cell, and prevents issues affecting battery performance, such as over-
charge, over-discharge, and overheating, thus ensuring that the battery always works under
ideal conditions.

The 150 kW motor provides the BYD ATTO 3 with high speed, high torque, and powerful start-
up acceleration.
