I absolutely love my BYD rotating screen. I always change it to portrait for navigation, because it shows way more of the road ahead, where I'm going, rather than show what's passing on either side, which is of little interest!

I'm a Chinese person living in Canada. My car had some minor scratches on two doors and the front and rear bumpers, and I needed to repaint them and replace a side mirror cover. I paid CAD 15,500 for this at Mercedes-Benz, which is approximately RMB 82,500. I sent photos of the damage to a friend who works at Mercedes in China. He told me that the cost to repair this car in China would be RMB 3,500, which is about CAD 660. If done at an auto repair shop instead of a Mercedes dealership, it would cost RMB 1,200, around CAD 226. However, despite such a significant price difference, it doesn’t seem to change Canadians' confidence in dealing with inflation. So, where is all the money going for Canadians?

I have the same BYD Atto 3 with larger battery (nominal 480 km capacity) in the same colour. My family and I live around 110 km from our capital city and use it for country driving and city commuting. So far we haven't been hit by a 3 wheeler but apart from that our experience seems similar to yours. Our cruise control must be the next version up from yours though. We agree with your impressions. We wouldn't swap it. It's terrific for our semi-rural use, perfect for our long range commuting, we've not yet used the inbuilt guitar strings. Personally I don't have any issue with the small data screen. I'm glad to learn your trick of sending location data through the app from my phone to the onboard nav system!! Great report! Thank you.

Well I completely disagree about it being more refined in the Australian model. For a start I want to adjust my cruise control in 1km/h increments, not 5. Secondly it cannot keep a consistent speed - it constantly moves 2-3km/h down or a km or 2 -3 up depending on the slope of the road before it eventually gets back to the set speed - if traffic in front slows down, it's super slow to react to traffic moving back up to speed which frustrates drivers behind. Lane keep assist is OK but I find I can't rely on it in ACC. I suppose it's unfair to compare it to my Model 3 (which is light years ahead), so instead I'll compare it to my old 2014 Outlander PHEV which I sold in 2022. It had radar ACC that was way more intuitive to use and pretty much rock solid on speed, quick to react and never let me down. Sure I had to steer but I never had to worry about my speed. Oh and the cameras on my Atto 3 are great. However, I can only sign in to the app on one device at a time which I find frustrating and the app is very basic compared to the Tesla.

We own a Dolphin (26,000 km) and an Atto 3 (15,000 km) and no technical problems so far. The only problem is ADAS, which tends to overreacted or too late. I heart that the Seal got a far better ADAS after the latest software upgrade.

I have the NZ version of this, yes called an Atto 3 here- 60kW version. I've driven it all though the Southern Island mountains with no problems, It's been amazing without a single problem, although I did damage the steering myself. (Not BYDs fault though) I do use the vertical screen though, have you ever tried navigating a map with your phone in landscape? Portrait is much more useful. No problems with my backup camera, I like it. I've gotten almost 15km/kW in cities, great as far as I'm concerned. The Cruise control has worked well, when the road is painted... on rough mountain roads, don't use it. I camp a lot so the VTL is wonderful.

A few things: firstly my kids have tuned the guitar strings to play a number of songs, so they use them lol. I totally agree about the garbage Batman stock tyres if thats the same as were delivered with the Australian model - almost dangerous in the wet if you have a lead foot. I drive with the main screen in portrait and use spotify and waze splitscreen. The cruise control on my atto3 doesn't have the cruise control issues yours does, although it only changes speed in 5km/hr intervals which can be annoying. Finally the Australian model didn't ship with the karaoke microphone so unfortunately (fortunately?) my singer daughter cannot review its quality. Great video btw

There is a tip regarding these folding ebikes which have tye battery behind the seat and the controller next to the bottom bracket: using bathroom-silicone to seal of the two entries of the chamber where the controller case is in makes the bike last tens if thousabds of kilometers longer - but even if water gets in - due to no such precaution - it usually only fries one resistor which only costs a few cents to replace it.

Love the Atto 3, I own one, but the cruise on our 7 year old KIA Sportage just works as it should whereas the Atto 3 doesn't. For me though, the Atto 3 makes up for this one bad feature in so many other ways that I have forgiven it long ago. Maybe an OTA update will finally fix it?

Do you know a supplier in China I can purchase one from (and get it sent to Australia)? In the 20 months we've owned our car, it has worked brilliantly.

The BYD has a worldwide reputation for being an excellent vehicle that is very sturdy and well supported by the company. However, you get A LOT of racist hate about these vehicles because they are Chinese made coming almost exclusivelyout of the U.S. There was no other reason for the criticism. Nothing concrete for people to actually examine was ever mentioned. The newer BYD vehicles have U.S. tariffs of 100% (some even say approaching 200%) to prevent those vehicles from spreading here after pressure from Elon Musk. But people in the U.S. are being ripped off with domestic vehicle cost. It reminds me of when the SOP for American car companies was planned obsolescence. That is until Toyota and Honda started kicking ass and Lee Iococca ran to Uncle Sam to stop the cars from flooding the U.S. market. Americans were undergoing a financial crisis at the time and affordable reliable cars were what was needed and the government didn't care. This is why you have U.S. pickup trucks today approaching six figures. Americans need those trucks for work but they are being taken advantage of by manufacturers who wave the flag in our faces while not offering reasonable value. Buy what fits your budget and is reliable. Take care of yourself and your family.

Oh, one more NZ comment. The last time I paid to charge my Atto 3 was more than a year ago. There are so many descent and free charging points here that I just make it a point to use shopping areas with free charging. (So I pay with my business) It's a great excuse to go have a long lunch or coffee. At home I use power providers that have free power daily for limited periods. and set the timer to charge at home during these free off-peak times.

Because BYD is at running at the max manufatoring capacity since 2023, and people in China are literally grapping the smaller models of BYD cars right after rolling off the factory line. And there are not enough ro ro vessels to ship the cars to markets with high demand. BYD will start offering more smaller models oversea once the situiation is profitable for BYD to expand manufactory capacity.

This is normal in China, as most new cars that encounter accidents usually choose to go to 4S stores (brand authorized stores that integrate repair and distribution) for repairs, and they often cooperate with insurance companies to push up repair prices as much as possible. For a used car, replacing new doors may be wasteful, but for a new car, the integrity of the skin and paint ensures the resale value of the used car. So I completely understand the choices of WheelsBoy.

I hear you, man. I have multiple herniated disks, so I'm very sensitive when it comes to lumbar support. I find the seats in the Yuan Plus to be fine, but I still use an orthopedic pad for long trips (or a rolled up a pair of shorts, which sometimes works just as well). The only cars I can honestly say never give me back pain are the Germans. I remember spending two hours stuck in traffic in a BMW X7 and then getting out feeling fresh as a daisy. I was blown away.

Don't quite agree on the ride quality or the perceived cabin quality. Those door handles are unnecessary , rear seat and plastics feel cheap, chassis response reminds me of an old Toyota. But they're cheap and do the job, lots of Didi (Uber) use this one. BYD has good drive train tech, not rare to see a BYD Uber with 250k Km on the clock and still going strong. But the interior feels cheaper than say Xpeng at the same price level, or maybe I should say that the interior feels too cheap for my taste. Reminds me of Renault.

The part that hit the car's door panel was the tip of its handle bar. It's basically the end of a steel rod, and would have to be sheared quite hard to cause visible damage.
