Dave spots BYD Atto 8 seven-seat SUV at Paris Motor Show - and it's electric
While doing the rounds at the Paris Motor Show media day this morning, Dave spotted the BYD Atto 8 on the Chinese firm's stand. It's a new seven-seat SUV and its presence at the event suggests this is going on sale in Europe, which means there's a good chance it will come to the Irish market as well. Though this model is sold in some markets as a plug-in hybrid (or 'Super Hybrid' if you speak BYD marketing), this vehicle is a fully electric variant.
Big update to our review of the BYD Atto 3 Evo with Irish pricing confirmed from €40,530
It has taken BYD quite some time to bring the updated version of the Atto 3 – called simply the Atto 3 Evo – to Ireland, but it’s here now and available in rear-wheel-drive Design format or as the all-wheel-drive Excellence. Pricing is competitive, starting at just €40,530, and that entry-level car gets a quoted range of 510 kilometres. Link below to our overhauled review of the car.
