- Blade Battery:- How can we miss this notable change brought by BYD in 2020? BYD came up with this gripping idea of using a blade battery (chemically- Lithium Iron Phosphate) instead of the traditional li-ion battery. For its placement and structure, the battery is called a blade battery and is considered an ultra-safe battery for EVs. On top of that, the world’s most popular Tesla company is supposedly considering using a BYD blade battery in their new Tesla Model Y.
- Two Variants:- There are two variants available for BYD Atto 3, the Standard and Extended range. The price and specifications slightly differ per these variants.
