The BYD Atto 2 will be previewed for the first time in Malaysia at the paultan.org Premium Auto Car Expo (PACE) 2025, happening this weekend July 19 and 20 at the Setia City Convention Centre (SCCC). This much has been revealed by BYD Cars Malaysia’s official Facebook page (see below).
This will provide prospective customers an early viewing of the new compact EV before its official launch on July 24. Understood to effectively replace the Dolphin in BYD’s local range, the Atto 2 will naturally slot in under the best-selling Atto 3 SUV. The latter, in its latest Ultra form, is priced at RM118,800, so expect the junior crossover to be even more affordable.
While local specs have not been revealed yet, it should mirror what has been shown in Australia, with a 177 PS/290 Nm motor matched to a 51.1 kWh LFP battery, which would provide around 350 km of WLTP range. That’s certainly more useful than the smaller 45.12 kWh battery pack offered in China, which is good for only 312 km (WLTP).
The only question is, how much will it be? We will likely have to wait until the launch date for the answer, but if you’re even remotely interested in the BYD Atto 2, head on over to PACE 2025 this weekend to see it first. Free entry for all.
