BYD Atto 3 Performance Launches in Malaysia at RM150k
What happened
BYD has launched the Atto 3 Performance in Malaysia. The variant arrives three months after the facelifted Atto 3 made its local debut.
BYD had teased the Performance model two weeks before the launch.
What the Performance variant adds
The Atto 3 Performance brings all-wheel drive to the C-segment electric SUV. It produces 449 PS and 560 Nm of torque.
It completes the 0-100 km/h sprint in 4.0 seconds.
Range and pricing
BYD quotes a WLTP range of 470 km for the Atto 3 Performance. The variant is priced at RM150k in Malaysia.
It sits above the existing facelifted Atto 3 variants in the line-up.
Why it matters
The Atto 3 Performance gives Malaysian buyers a quicker, all-wheel-drive option in the C-segment electric SUV class. Its 4.0-second century sprint puts it among the fastest models in its price bracket.
The RM150k price keeps it within reach of mainstream electric SUV shoppers.
Impact on Malaysia
The launch expands BYD's electric vehicle range in Malaysia. It follows the facelifted Atto 3's debut three months earlier.
Malaysian buyers now have an all-wheel-drive Atto 3 choice alongside the existing variants.
What's next
The Atto 3 Performance is now available in Malaysia at RM150k. BYD has not disclosed further variant details beyond the performance figures and range.
