BYD ATTO 2 DM-i

The BYD ATTO 2 DM-i is the answer for anyone who wants to drive electric today but has no appetite for charging stress or limitations. Thanks to BYD's Super Hybrid with DM technology, this compact SUV combines the silent, immediate driving feel of an EV with the confidence of an exceptionally long range. The result: one of the most efficient and versatile SUVs in its segment.

This is neither a classic plug-in hybrid nor a half-hearted stopgap. The ATTO 2 DM-i drives as an electric car most of the time, with a drivetrain that switches intelligently between EV and hybrid operation to make every journey as efficient as possible.

Super Hybrid DM-i: EV feel, 1,000 km of freedom

At the heart of the ATTO 2 DM-i is BYD's Dual Mode drive. In EV mode the wheels are driven purely electrically. In HEV mode that electric character is retained, while the petrol engine mainly acts as an energy source for the electric motor and battery. Only when extra power is needed do the engine and electric motor work together.

That delivers tangible benefits:

up to 90 km of fully electric driving (WLTP)
a total combined range of up to 1,000 km
a weighted fuel consumption from 1.8 l/100 km

For many drivers this means daily trips are fully electric, while long distances require no planning or concessions whatsoever.

Comfortable performance, typically electric

Thanks to the electric drive the ATTO 2 DM-i always feels smooth and responsive. Acceleration is linear and silent, without gear changes or delays. Depending on the version it sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.5 seconds, with a top speed of 180 km/h, ample for European motorway use.

Even when the battery is low, the driving behaviour remains consistent and refined. That is an important difference from traditional hybrids, which often lose their electric character as soon as the battery runs empty.

Compact SUV design with a mature presence

The ATTO 2 DM-i combines pronounced SUV elements with compact, European proportions. With its long wheelbase and short overhangs it looks stable and self-assured, without feeling unwieldy in city traffic.

At the front, full-LED headlights, slim daytime running lights and aerodynamic air guides create a powerful, efficient look. The side profile is defined by contrasting cladding, dynamic surfaces and a floating roof design. At the rear, the full-width light bar and the characteristic Chinese knot tail lights immediately catch the eye, a subtle reference to infinity and continuity.

Smart, roomy and surprisingly upmarket interior

Inside, the ATTO 2 DM-i offers a practical, high-quality cabin clearly designed with everyday use in mind. The finish feels solid, the seating position is high and commanding, and thanks to the long wheelbase there is remarkably generous space for passengers.

The digital heart consists of:

an 8.8-inch fully digital instrument panel
a 12.8-inch central touchscreen with the latest BYD software

The infotainment experience is lifted to a higher level by AI-assisted voice control. Via Hi BYD you communicate with the car in an almost human way. The system understands context, holds multi-step conversations and helps with navigation, climate control and general questions, without fixed commands.

At 425 litres the boot is particularly generous for this segment and grows to 1,335 litres with the rear bench folded. Practical, for families and active drivers alike.
