About BYD Atto 2
The BYD Atto 2 is BYD’s compact B-segment SUV for Italy, and it is unusual in offering buyers a real choice of powertrain: a full-electric (BEV) version and a plug-in hybrid (DM-i) version. That makes it flexible – go fully electric if you charge at home, or pick the DM-i Super Hybrid if you want electric daily driving plus petrol range for long trips. Either way you get BYD’s safe Blade battery and a practical, well-equipped small SUV at a sharp price.
The full-electric Atto 2 comes with a 45 kWh battery (177 CV, around 312 km WLTP) or a 65 kWh battery (204 CV, around 420 km WLTP), both front-wheel drive. The DM-i plug-in hybrid pairs a 1.5-litre Xiaoyun petrol engine (a class-leading 43 percent thermal efficiency) with an electric motor and Blade battery: the Active offers 166 CV and 40 km of electric range, while the Boost offers 212 CV, 90 km electric and V2L – with a combined range of up to 1,500 km.
At 4.33 metres long with a 440-litre boot, the Atto 2 is a sensible size for the city and beyond. Italian prices start from about 27,600 euro for the DM-i and 30,290 euro for the full-electric version (launch promotions have been sharper). BYD backs it with a strong warranty – 6 years on the car and 8 years or 250,000 km on the battery. For Italian buyers wanting an affordable, safe and flexible electrified SUV, the Atto 2 is well worth a look.
Trending news for BYD Atto 2
BYD has broadened the Atto 2 range in Italy by adding a DM-i plug-in hybrid (Super Hybrid) alongside the existing full-electric (BEV) version - giving buyers a rare choice of powertrain in the compact SUV class. The DM-i is offered as the Active (166 CV, 40 km electric) from about 27,600 euro and the Boost (212 CV, 90 km electric, V2L) from about 30,100 euro, with launch promotions bringing prices down to around 23,900 and 26,500 euro.
The full-electric Atto 2 continues with 45 kWh (177 CV, ~312 km WLTP) and 65 kWh (204 CV, ~420 km WLTP) options. Both powertrains use the safe Blade battery and come with BYD's strong warranty - 6 years on the car and 8 years or 250,000 km on the battery. With sharp pricing and real flexibility, the Atto 2 is one of BYD's most important models for the Italian market.
BYD Atto 2 range and performance
The Atto 2 gives Italian buyers two very different ways to drive. The full-electric (BEV) version offers around 312 km WLTP from the 45 kWh battery (177 CV) or up to about 420 km from the 65 kWh battery (204 CV), with a 0-100 km/h time of around 7.9 seconds and 290 Nm. The DM-i plug-in hybrid covers 40 km (Active) or 90 km (Boost) on electricity alone, then uses its 1.5-litre Xiaoyun petrol engine for a combined range of up to 1,500 km.
In practice, the BEV is ideal if you charge at home and mostly drive locally, while the DM-i suits those who regularly travel long distances and want no range anxiety. Both are front-wheel drive and tuned for easy, comfortable everyday use rather than outright sportiness.
BYD Atto 2 safety overview
The BYD Atto 2 holds a 5-star Euro NCAP rating and comes with a comprehensive safety package, including a Level 2 ADAS suite (adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking), blind spot detection, a 360-degree camera, electronic stability control and tyre pressure monitoring, plus multiple airbags. Underpinning both the BEV and DM-i versions is BYD's Blade (LFP) battery, engineered for excellent thermal stability and safety - a key reassurance whichever powertrain you choose.
BYD Atto 2 battery and charging guide
The full-electric Atto 2 supports DC fast charging, taking the battery from 10 to 80 percent in around 30 minutes, plus AC home charging for overnight top-ups. The DM-i plug-in hybrid also plugs in to charge its battery for electric driving, and can simply be refuelled with petrol for long trips - the Boost even adds V2L to power external devices. Both use a CCS (Type 2) connector. For the DM-i, charging regularly and keeping daily trips within the electric range delivers the lowest running costs.
BYD Atto 2 warranty details
BYD backs the Atto 2 with a strong ownership package in Italy: a 6-year vehicle warranty and an 8-year or 250,000 km high-voltage Blade battery warranty, with a guaranteed minimum state of health (SOH) of 70 percent. The LFP Blade battery is designed for long life and high safety. Confirm the latest warranty terms, promotional pricing and any conditions with BYD Italia or your local dealer at purchase.
