BYD Atto 3 Gets More Affordable in India: 2024 Update Ushers in New Variants and Lower Starting Price

BYD India has unveiled the much-awaited 2024 update to their popular electric SUV, the Atto 3. This refresh brings exciting news for budget-conscious electric car buyers in India, with a significant price cut and the introduction of new variants.

Goodbye High Price Tag, Hello Accessibility

The biggest highlight of the launch is the substantial price reduction. The 2024 BYD Atto 3 now starts at a much more attractive price of ₹24.99 lakh (ex-showroom, introductory). This marks a dramatic drop of ₹9 lakh compared to the single, fully-loaded variant offered previously.

More Choice for Buyers

BYD is no longer going the single-variant route. The 2024 update introduces a wider range with three distinct trims: Dynamic, Premium, and Superior. This allows customers to choose the Atto 3 that best suits their needs and budget.

Possible Feature Enhancements

While official details are still emerging, the 2024 Atto 3 might see upgrades inspired by the global model revealed earlier this year. This could include a larger touchscreen infotainment system, potentially new interior themes, and potentially additional features.

Local Assembly for Cost Reduction

The shift to local assembly through CKD (Completely Knocked Down) units is likely a key factor behind the reduced price tag. This method allows for more cost-effective production, ultimately benefitting Indian consumers.

A Brighter Future for Electric SUVs in India

The launch of the 2024 BYD Atto 3 signifies the brand’s commitment to the Indian electric vehicle market. With a wider range of variants, potential feature upgrades, and a starting price that makes it a more compelling option, the updated Atto 3 is poised to be a major player in the country’s electric SUV segment.
