Revisions for model-year 2024 include a larger 15.6-inch rotating infotainment system – up from 12.8-inch – dual-zone climate control, black D-pillar trim, a new Cosmos Black exterior colour, and wider Continental EcoContact 6 tyres replacing Atlas Batmans.

BYD has added a darker upholstery option – black and dark blue – when the vehicle is painted in Boulder Grey or Cosmos Black, while versions finished in Ski White and Surf Blue retain lighter blue and grey upholstery.

The Parkour Red and Forest Green exterior finishes have been deleted for new Atto 3 orders.

Other changes include wireless Apple CarPlay support – which is also rolling out as an over-the-air software update for existing vehicles – a karaoke function, and a ‘camping mode’ to allow the air-conditioning to function when the vehicle is turned off.
