A minor update for the 2024 BYD Atto 3 electric SUV has been announced for Australia.
Due in local showrooms imminently, the updated Atto 3 has received a $3512 price cut across the line-up, which is now priced between $44,499 and $47,499 before on-road costs.
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.

As detailed here, it also adopts simplified ‘BYD’ lettering replacing the ‘Build Your Dreams’ rear badge.
The BYD Atto 3 launched in Australia in September 2022 at $44,381 plus on-roads for the Standard Range and $47,381 plus on-roads for the Extended Range – before a $3630 price increase in December 2022.
All versions of the Atto 3 have a single 150kW/310Nm electric motor powering the front wheels, with a 345-kilometre WLTP driving range for the Standard Range and 420km for the Extended Range.
