- What happens when you drive a BYD Atto 3 until it dies? Let's find out!
In this week's video, Gav took a Standard Range Atto 3 on a long drive to see if the WLTP range of 345 km per charge is accurate in New Zealand conditions, and to see what actually happens when it finally goes flat.
What's also interesting is seeing how Gav rescued the car after it ran out!

Agree, test drove and was sold. Now had one for eight months, just fantastic, no regrets at all. And I just love the interior decor, my grand kids think grandpa's car is very cool.
😊👍
Fake byd propaganda.. my review is compelling bad . It's a dud and a fat bulky ugly looks as well as slow. Idiots buy this sort of shite car online. That's very dumb
.
It's really great to be able to accept new things
I tried a Atto 3 standard range on a trip to Twizel from Christchurch - about 290km each way, with 600m - 700m of a climb on the way there.
I drove mostly on cruise control at an indicated 110kph, and the traffic was light. It needed a top up charge at Tekapo on the way up there, but made it back with about 50km of range on the way back down.
I found it a really nice car to drive, quiet, smooth, with great road holding, and a fantastic interior.
I didn't air fry any spuds, prefering to stop for a pie at the Fairlie bakery, but was really impressed by the car.
The airfryer and potatoes is a genius marketing move by BYD
This bi-directional charging/powering system is very useful when you don't use your car for moving , it can power your house !
Using it with solar panels can make you completely off grid.
Only genius marketing, No quality insure 😂

Very much enjoy these vids you Ecotricity folks put out. Engaging host (Gav you're brilliant!), genuinely entertaining but also informative. Nice work :-) We're enjoying our new EV6 but it's amazing to see how quickly the whole market is moving, both in terms of models, but also the tech. A few years back you wouldn't want to touch a Chinese made vehicle, now look at them.
You are the hero we needed. Thanks for doing this! Great video. We rate your video a perfect 7 out of 5 potatoes.
Always glad to see your tests Gavin. Many times you point out details that no other tester thinks of, but is really good to know, either before deciding on a purchase or when owning the car already.
the Hello joke got me 🤣🤣🤣
Nice work Gav - excellent mix of data and fun. And electrons.
"Hellooo". Neither Lionel nor Adele. ELO, Telephone line. ;-)
Me too!!
So they put wifi into the senior living home, and your grand kids gave you an iPhone that confuddles you.
You are helping us huge with these tests.
Once again excellent video Gav, well done 👍
Wifey and I have this exact car, shoot range in white, and In Australia, the order ratio is a crazy 30:1 with most people getting the long range version. It’s a bit silly to my mind, but we also have a Tesla which we’re looking to use on long trips because of the much better charging speeds and Tesla charge network. We took the BYD on a longer trip recently and it was a hassle to charge timing wise only getting a hilarious 75 or so kw at the charger. Makes a wonderful car in town though.
Just checked the price for a model 3 in nz and it's just over the cost of this car...but you can't fry chips with a Tesla 3!!!.🤣
Well Australia is a huge country and has pretty rubbish ev infrastructure so I’d want as much range as possible too
@@caravanstuff2827 in practice the V2L is overrated unless you want to camp a tent next to the car. I think it’s a great but very minor feature, and overall I’m much more impressed with the clean experience the Tesla provides than the feature set. Gotta say I do like the sunroof in the BYD
@@morri03 yeah it’s fair. I think charging speed matters more than range though. The network needs to improve and it is, but it’s also not that bad.
Bigger battery = more weight and more time to charge. A nice quick 50kwh battery that can top up in 30 mins or less is perfect for road trips. Even better when you have the options of Telsa’s great network
澳大利亚 未来 建设更多 充电桩 这辆车就完美了
Really quite impressive especially the airfryer…. Thanks. Laurie
Hi Gav. Hilarious review. I love your comments re the seat height of the BYD compared to the Telsa Model 3 in particular. I've always wanted to sit in the M3 but have had to look at it and go, nah, too hard! I have a BYD Atto 3 and a Tesla MY here in Western Australia. Love them both. Thank you so much for your review.
You could have bought ANYTHING in the world and you bought a BYD. Why?
Great review by a real enthusiastic veteran, hats down & awesome
Always look forward to these reviews
Yeah the guys as funny as bro!!.❤️🇳🇿
Our Friday night treat 😋
Great video Spud🥔 really enjoyed it
Great video mate
Really keen to see the smaller dolphin when that arrives in Australia and NZ
have you checked out the Dolphin now its here?
Quite nice, but a bit small interior
Hahah you had me at 'Hello' and thanks for asking, today it hurts.
This is the best review. 👍
Air frier consumed huge electricity, 2kWh of electricity at least.
If you don't turn on seat heater and the air frier you might get 10 more Ks for that car, that's even more impressive as it gets even closer to the listed WLTP.
Absolutely! the impressive thing is that atto 3 is the first car with the blade battery tech and it's not disappointing. The new BYDs are going to lead the global market. I am holding my breath to get a SONG L
@@martiruda The Song L is really impressive with design .. Sooo lovely Ev .. end of 2024 😍
Nicely done !
Real keen for this video
Shit man. I thought of Lionel Richtie! SO accurate this
Ditto, hadn’t realised Adele had sung a song called hello. So old…
Wonderful slightly eccentric review. Must get an air fryer!
I am living in Thailand. I ditched the Atto 3 mainly because of its interior. I like the idea but not these massive white surfaces which are not kid-friendly. So I ordered the Dolphin Extended range version (150 kW, 60 kWh). It has a smaller trunk space than the Atto 3, but still enough for me as a 2nd car. The seating position is lower than the Atto 3 but not too low for me. I very like the tech and style of the MG 4 but this car us too low for me.
Hi from Aus, Great review, have tried the long range and how many kms can you get from the BYD long range?
Looks good, I haven't seen one here in the UK yet it will need to be competitively priced to outsell the MG4 over here though.
Great video. In South Africa we should be getting the Atto3 later this year. But I am interested in the V2L capabilities as then we could use the car to power appliances in our house. In SA we have "loadshedding" which is controlled power blackouts due to the missmanagment and corruption of our national power provider.
I can confirm that it works well, quite hand during last power cut here in NZ, only for half a day fortunately. Maximum peak load is around 3KW as Gavin mentioned, but sustained power load is around 2.4 KW, it will cut off if the loads is at max/peak for longer period of time.
And I can confirm BYD Atto 3 is in RSA
How about a range test in Wellington on a taxi run? Now that would be a really test.
Offbrand / aftermarket granny charger to vehicle to load to second car charging, will any offbrand / aftermarket granny charger work this way to charge a second car? or will it be hit and miss with offbrand chargers?
"It speaks Gavin" lol
The "Hello " gag is so cleaver.....
hi
looking at the extended range but have seen reviews regarding driving on open road that the car can sway and roll (corners and windy conditions), how did you find this as we travel from auckland to whangarei frequently
in China, the didi drivers using ev cars, geely, chery or byd, and most of them cost under 25000 au dollars, i have checked them, some 12:00 ev cars done over 300000kms, and full charge still car run around 300kms, thats impressive.
What is the net price difference between standard and extended range please? Here in Australia its $3k.
Thanks for the review. BYD is my next car 😂
BYD Atto 3 sells for 139,800 RMB in China （19,000 USD）
40k$ in Jordan
How can you check the battery range when you are using the battery power for cooking as well
Never would I thought that a car can cook you a meal
can you add a solar panel on its top and charge the car when park in the sun?
Gav is funny! He got me with Hello...my answer was Lionel hahaha
My back is okay for today! thanks for asking🙄
Used the car batteries for airfryer cocking , so it will reduce the car range?
I absolutely loved the potatoscore - you should patent ti
My back is absolutely buggered and I am having physio for my even worse hip thanks for asking. (Lionel Ritchie, Obviously!)
"Switzerland neutral". 🤣I learned something useful today which I am sure I can use in my daily life. 🤓
The Swiss deserve it. They've been fooling the world with their 'neutrality' for ages. Besides, a lot of them drive like mad once they get out of their country's bundary, showing little respect for local traffic regulations. ( I speak from my own experience, having lived on the frontier of a country that shares a border with Switzerland. )
Hey mate, what was your source that indicated Netflix & Disney+ would be coming to the BYD? Can't seem to find anything online
You need to try: "Hi BYD, I'm super hot", it's my favourite command
What does it do? AC on full blast?
Good job
Do these V2L adapters work with any V2L EV or specifically only a BYD? I've seen MG, BYD, Hyundai specific V2L adapters and I'm wondering if suppliers are taking the mick by listing them separately or if there is a legit reason for it. To me, the car and adapter should do a handshake according to the standards and not need specific versions.
It takes more than just a plug in adapter to get V2L functionality, the EV also needs to have bidirectional ability built into it. If the EV doesn't have this functionality it's like having an anti-siphon fitting on a FF car. There are a few EVs that have V2L ability which allows an appliance or two to be powered. Incidentally the Nissan Leaf goes one better and has full V2H or V2G capability so you can use it like a Powerwall and run your house from it, if you also have a bidirectional EV charger to do so.
Vehicle to Grid functionality is the next big developments in EVs with many coming models with this ability built in. We just have to wait for the hardware to become available and its price to drop, and our lines companies to recognise this opportunity which will allow V2G connected EVs to buffer peak demands on our grid.
Just another example of why most of us will be driving a Chinese EV in ten years.
I have to agree.
Great design !!! All ev car should have these feature👍👍👍👍
Your jokes are wicked…
wasn't this $50,000 before CCR when it first came out? I thought it was tied with the MG
I had to laugh at your age and back reference. I feel your pain.
06:49. Ditto here fresh new different designs! Laurie
And what was the average speed of this test, please?
How many kw did the car use to airfry the potatos ?
what do you think of the Polestar?
great video - my only disappointment is the lack of hashbrowns in the air fry segment
I would still go with the MG4 51 Excite, OK not all the bells and whistles, but similar range, rear wheel drive, better handling and turning circle, Oh and did I mention $10,000 dollars cheaper.
Can you do a test with 5 pax in the car?
hi, nice video. also want to ask about tow bar. how much kg can carry this car? i have a caravan to carry and need to know this numbers :) around 1000kg is ok for me.
This can only do 750kg mate
Wait, so you used the seat heating AND air fryer which still got 317km on the charge?😮
I did one test drive and bought one, and selling point of the Atto 3 over the Dolphin was the seat height. Not old, just have a bad back 😂
C'mon Gav, do a real world test where you drive at 100 Kmh like most people outside Auckland. 90 is the sweet spot, but you will get honked off the road if you keep that up on SH1 south of the Bombays.
I agree I’m never doing 90 indicated in a 100 zone unless it’s foggy or pouring with rain
This is just an advertisement masked as a range test. Light and entertaining. Over all very good for an ad.
@@DmitriGoncharov Yup my thoughts exactly. If you are too critical then suddenly you are struck off getting veehickles.
"EV's" car to drive with "100kmh"?..it is a "crab" car sight-seeing on highway.
@@DmitriGoncharov These videos are not ads, we aren't paid by any of these companies to test their cars. But yes, ultimately they do get free advertising out of it. We get Gav to do these tests so you don't have to, they are all honest reviews with the aim in helping you make more informed decisions when purchasing your own EV. We just want to help electrify the future of transport. Thanks for your praise! :)
the most annoying problem is fogging. beside that it's a great car.
If you were trying to get the maximum range out of the car... why are you wasting power by cooking in the middle of your drive? How many km did that knock off the actual distance?
Not bad from a car with an interior not unlike the interior of Alien hatching incubation from the 1979 Sir Ridley Scott movie. Terrifying but such an effective killing machine. Shame it can't save the world but it seems to perform most other functions if not frivolous novelty. Great bargain indeed 👍
We in Switzerland know that "NEUTRALITY" means to help selflessly the really rich ones to be really rich..
Would love a Model Y RWD comparison. These cars are often comapred
Comparing the 60kwh BYD v the Y, well if you can afford the 8% more the Model Y is a way better and will have a lot less depreciation.
The Y is a bigger vehicle. If you can stand an electric Jesus machine I guess it’s an option.
The Atto3 is FWD. There is no comparison to a RWD.
@@nordic5490 front or rear drive is pretty irrelevant for heavy family SUVs. These aren’t vehicles known for their dynamics. No-one interested in driving would choose either of them
From what I know of each vehicle the Tesla has much better "technology" built in, plus a LOT more power. Build quality wise I would rate them very similar, I think the Teslas are a lot better than they used to be. We opted for the BYD as my wife HATES the fact there is no dash behind the steering wheel on the Tesla, PLUS the fact the indicator is on the wrong side lol. Also the Tesla supercharging network is way more extensive (at least here in Australia) so you have more options for charging than a BYD. Personally if I was to upgrade my ICE I would consider the Model Y over the BYD, but I'm keen to see what the BYD Seal is going to be like as this looks pretty good from what I've seen. Yes it's a sedan and not an SUV though.
nice car❤👌👍️
What is your speed in whole test
when theY can be sold in US?
Being a Chinese who lived in NZ for well over 10 years I am very glad that you liked this car, I am not a fan of the brand though but I am sure it will grow on me. That aside, yes Auckland is not the place for 300km but I can tell you fried your potato in Coromandel. Gee I miss NZ. Also, is it funny to assume that running out of fuel on the road is illegal in NZ but not running out of electricity?
13:00 I just realized. If V2V charging would exist as a regulation then the range anxiety could be much less. in the worst case someone could sell you a few kWH
it will come and it will be beautiful.
Any news if BYD will bring UA-cam so we can watch your videos Gav while charging? Love your recovery option as well.
We did exactly that while charging our Polestar this week. Total EV immersion.
You can do this now by "side loading" the app. It's very easy to do, just google the steps on how to do it.
Would be nice if such thing as dc to dc charge between cars rather convert reconvert ac-dc
These full range tests are great! How about a Tesla one :D
Yeah , won't get anywhere near what musk is saying they will travel...the guys a SNAKE OIL SALESMAN and that being kind!!.
What about a Tesla 3
Tesla don’t give vehicles to review
better tow to regenerate. it is charging back faster and more efficient than chain the wires
How much driving range did you lose by cooking those spuds?
Wow 250,000 views on your comparison of the atto 3 and mg ZS. Bjorn Nyland does not even touch that.
I’m interested about new “fisker ocean” (long range one)
Great vid! Wish we had Chinese EV's in North America. What's the wait time like for an Atto 3 in NZ?
when the orange man comes back and you can pay 100% tariff, you will get one.🎉😂😢

It will be national security threat, even you buy a paper rolls are a national security threat according to the politicians. lol
1:16 damn you for forcing me to admit I'm old. Time to shoo the neighborhood kids off my lawn.
i understand it has a really good cigarette lighter, yes it will be so good to watch the tv whilst driving, if you can see through the smoke. We wont mention the "stop delivery" Issued in China.
You should stop watching captain apartheid and join the real world.
I was waiting for it to fault when he went to charge it off the other BYD, I tried charging my wife’s PHEV off my BYD VTL and it wouldn’t do it. Looks like I need an aftermarket charge cable
15% off😂, even WLTP need to pay gst
You totally should put the air fryer on the ground… it is heavy and it could flip over on top of that box.
Air fryers make great chips
11:27 That is great range for 317 km
NZ's EV infrastructure is the envy of the world.
It comes at a considerable price. I'd caution anyone coming to New Zealand. Come if you're loaded or don't bother as you'll be nothing more than a battery like in the first Matrix movie running a very expensive engine of bureaucracy.
New Zealand bump roads? 😱
Those seems pretty flat roads to me mate, come driving in Rio de Janeiro, I’ll show you some bump roads without leaving the city.
Actually try California, I know many people who lost their tires due to the huge and deep potholes
@@manimalworks7424 Same thing here, holes from road degradation everywhere + holes from water e sewage maintenance because they dig but aren’t the one in charge of fixing the road
technically you can still drive at least 1km after it went flat. just have to power off and on 5 mins later
But how many sheep fit in the boot?
How much does it cost to fully charge this vehicle.
much less than a tank full of 91............
We need one of these, loaded with the weight of 2 kids and some luggage.
U run it to unable to move will definitely hurt LFP battery life
how about DJI ?
