First long drive in my BYD Atto 3: Real world charging times, range etc

I recently completed a long drive in my BYD ATTO3 Dynamic for the first time The range with full charge is around 350 kms.

BHPian axedrone recently shared this with other enthusiasts:

Quote from BHPian sushanthys:

Hi guys..

Has anyone fitted a dashcam in their Atto 3?
Not the BYD original dashcam.
If so, plz give details.

Thank you..

For my BYD Atto3 dynamic, I chose the option given by PPS BYD, Bangalore showroom. They fitted a Blaupunkt dash cam.

Journey: Bangalore to Kavali and Nellore to Hyderabad and Hyderabad to Bangalore.

To find charging stations, I used the following apps:

– Plugshare
– Statiq

Bangalore to Kavali:

– Starting SoC: 100%
– Charging Stop: Nandi Food Plaza before Chittoor (note: this charging station is often occupied by electric buses traveling between Tirupathi and Bangalore)
– SoC: 55% to 90% (~30 minutes)
– No additional stops were needed to reach my destination. There are other charging stations near Chittoor Bypass and Tirupathi.

Kavali to Hyderabad:

– This route does NOT have good charging infrastructure.
– Starting SoC: 100%
– Charging stop: Hotel Vivera charging station in Vijayawada-Hyderabad highway at 5% of SoC

– Charged till SoC becomes 50%. (Time taken: ~40 minutes)

No other stops till destination. There is one charging station near Miryalaguda by Voltron. However it is on the other side of the road. So, I skipped this.

Hyderabad to Bangalore:

– This route has best charging infrastructure
– Most of the food courts have charging stations.
– I used three charging stations
– First one is at drift nation (Jadcherla) from SoC: 70% to 85% (~15 minutes)
– Second one is a Hyundai charging station near Miduthuru. SoC: 20% to 80% (It took so much time to get this charge because of the outside temperature (36 degrees), even though the charger is 150 KW, it charged the battery at 30KW (max: 70KW for few minutes)
– Samara restaurant: Zeon charing station. SoC: 30 to 50%

No other stops till destination, reached home with 25% SoC.
