The B Segment BYD EV is about the size of a VW T-Cross. Great if you only need to do the occasional +2


Singapore – BYD and Sime Motors, through Vantage Automotive Limited, launched the BYD ATTO 2, designed for the modern city and to be BYDโ€™s most accessible electric vehicle to date – compact, connected, and full of personality. 

The launch was held at a showcase in Zouk Singapore. A venue intended to reflect the bold energy and urban character of the car itself, for an event that emphasises BYDโ€™s youthful side to express a belief that EVs should be exciting, practical, and within reach.

Mr. Anthony Teo, Managing Director of Vantage Automotive

To add artistic flair to the launch, BYD partnered with renowned local artist Aeropalmics to create two one-of-a-kind wraps, including a half-robot, half-mantay ray โ€œBlue Hazeโ€ for a BYD ATTO 2, as well as floral-styled whales in โ€œSpringtime!โ€ for a BYD DOLPHIN. Though the wraps are not meant for sale, they reinforce BYDโ€™s vision of EVs as platforms for individual expression and storytelling, embodying the intersection of mobility and creativity.

The ATTO 2โ€™s sleek proportions emphasise everyday usability for urban living. With a tight 5.25m turning radius, it confidently navigates dense roads, tight driveways and multi-storey carparks. With 380L of boot space, itโ€™s also ideal for daily commutes, errands, and weekend plans.



Powered by BYDโ€™s globally acclaimed proprietary Blade Battery, the ATTO 2โ€™s 51.13kWh battery claims 345km of WLTP range, and DC fast charging in 1.2 hours. With a Category A-friendly 132hp and 290Nm, the ATTO2 completes the 0-100km/h dash in 9 seconds.

Aimed at first-time car owners, young professionals and growing families, the ATTO 2 features high-end interior features including a 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, ventilated front seats, 50W wireless charging, a smart voice assistant, a BYD Digital Key and Bluetooth Key integration, as well as a suite of Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) features including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Assist, and a 360-degree camera, all to keep your journey safe while smooth.

Mr James Ng, Managing Director of BYD Singapore and Philippines shared, โ€œThe BYD brand today stands for more than just electric vehicles; we stand for smart, sustainable and user-centric mobility. Our growth in Singapore reflects more than market share; it reflects trust. With every new model we introduce, weโ€™re redefining what it means to own an EV โ€” and who itโ€™s for.

Mr. Anthony Teo, Managing Director of Vantage Automotive, BYDโ€™s authorised distributor in Singapore shared โ€œIn a city like Singapore, where space is limited, traffic is constant and lifestyle needs are ever evolving, the BYD ATTO 2 delivers exactly what modern drivers are looking for. Itโ€™s compact and easy to manoeuvre, yet surprisingly spacious and well-equipped. From its tight turning radius to advanced safety systems, every feature is designed with urban life in mind. More than city driving, the ATTO 2 is the perfect entry model for newcomers in the EV world.โ€

Every BYD ATTO 2 comes with 10 years of battery warranty and free servicing, as well as 6 years of vehicle warranty. The ATTO 2 is also available for viewing and test drives at BYD showrooms across Singapore.
