The BYD Atto 3 electric SUV is set to receive a new entry-level variant in India tomorrow (10th July 2024). This new variant will be offered with a smaller 50kWh battery pack. However, its specifications are still under wraps. The Atto 3 is currently available with a single 60kWh battery pack and an electric motor, delivering a combined power output of 204PS and 310Nm of torque.
The current EV offers a claimed range of 510km on a full charge. The range of the new entry-level variant will surely be lesser than the existing model. Similar to the existing model, the new variant will be offered with a 7kW home charger and a 3kW portable charging box.
