I test drove the BYD Atto 3 in December. Very bright, spacious interior with the full panoramic roof. Easy access and drove well enough although I only drove through some 30/40 mph areas. A few things put me off though; the artificial EV noise in town driving after 15 minutes was pretty intrusive inside the cabin. The small driver information display was wonky as in off centre and going to the side. This alone would drive me insane over 3 years. During my investigations I found that there were issues with the heating system and the infotainment software. It will have it’s place in the scheme, it’s excellent value for money, a full 5 seater mpv, with very good equipment levels. If I still had kids at home it’s a no brainer. Definitely worth a test drive for sure.
I was under the impression BYD sorted the software bugs, with the infotainment and heater sometime ago now. The ice cream van sound inside the car can be adjusted to different themes and I believed turnned off. The pedestrian warning heme can also be changed aswell but, not turned off, also the indicator clicking sound can be changed including other settings. As for the drivers display I thought the steering wheel was offset making it look a little odd lol.
