BYD Atto 3 Price in Nepal (April 2024 Updated)

BYD Atto 3 is now officially available in Nepal.

Cimex, the authorized distributor of BYD vehicles in Nepal, continues to offer the BYD Atto 3 for the Nepali market.

The story of the BYD Atto 3 (also known as Yuan Plus and S2 Plus) is fascinating.

There was a lot of hype surrounding the initial launch of Atto 3. However, the hype came to a sudden halt as new tax policies jumped the price of the 150kW variant by almost 25 Lakhs!

Interestingly, BYD Nepal adopted a new strategy to ensure its survival.

The company introduces a newer 100kW variant with the same quirks and features at a more affordable price. 

Additionally, BYD Atto 3 gets an 8-year (or 1,60,000 Km) Battery and Vehicle Warranty in Nepal.

With that said, let’s take a quick look at the BYD Atto 3 in Nepal along with its specifications for 2024.

BYD Atto 3 Overview

Design

BYD Atto 3 sports a “Dragon Face 3.0” design.

It mixes well with traditional SUV styling matched with modern aesthetics.

The front section comes with slimmer LED headlamps. It gets a touch of premium undertone with its satin garnish.

Following the latest EV trend, it has a sloping hood for improved aerodynamics.

Moreover, it hosts an aggressively styled bumper with muscular air intakes.

The side profile is relatively simpler. It has traditional lines and creases.

However, the side profile stands out thanks to the chromed window border, textured C-pillar, and stylish alloy wheels.

The rear section includes an all-new LED Tail Lamp, covering the full width.

The following table lists the BYD Atto 3 price in Nepal along with its variants for April 2024.

BYD Atto 3 rivals MG ZS EV and Hyundai Kona EV.

All three electric SUVs fall under similar price brackets with matching motor and battery capacity.

Hyundai Kona Electric has the least 39.2kWh battery capacity, offering a mere 305km range for an asking price that costs more than BYD Atto 3 and MG ZS EV!

Perhaps, that is one of the reasons why Kona EV fell out of popularity.

In comparison, MG ZS EV and BYD Atto 3 come across as a better value with their leading quirks and features. However, the BYD Atto 3 does have a slight edge over the MG ZS EV, especially offering the industry-leading Blade battery technology.

Interestingly enough, the MG ZS EV has a reasonable 6-month service interval. Whereas, the BYD Atto 3 has been notorious for 4-month service intervals.
