Verdict
The BYD Atto 3 costs RM125,800 against RM118,800 for the Leapmotor B10. The extra outlay buys a much stronger 310 Nm front motor and a 7.3-second 0-100 km/h time, versus 240 Nm and 9.3 seconds, plus a stated 110 kW DC charging rate and 3.3 kW V2L. The B10 counters with a 67.1 kWh battery, 434 km range, 11 kW AC charging and seven airbags. For Malaysian buyers who prioritise longer claimed range and a lower entry price, the B10 is the sensible pick; the Atto 3 is for those who want sharper straight-line performance and confirmed fast-charging hardware.
Pick the BYD Atto 3 if you want the quicker 7.3-second 0-100 km/h time, 110 kW DC charging and more powerful 3.3 kW V2L output.
Pick the Leapmotor B10 if you want to spend RM7,000 less for a larger 67.1 kWh battery, 434 km claimed range, 11 kW AC charging and seven airbags.

BYD Atto 3
Atto 3 vs B10 FAQ
Is the BYD Atto 3 or Leapmotor B10 better?
The B10 is the better value-led choice with 434 km range, 11 kW AC charging and seven airbags. Choose the Atto 3 if 7.3-second acceleration, a stated 110 kW DC rate and 3.3 kW V2L matter more.
What is the price difference?
The Leapmotor B10 is RM7,000 cheaper than the BYD Atto 3.
Which one is better for charging and longer trips?
The B10 has the larger battery, 14 km more claimed range and faster 11 kW AC charging. The Atto 3 has the advantage for confirmed DC charging, with a stated 110 kW rate while no DC rate is stated for the B10.
How long does charging take?
The Atto 3's 60.5 kWh battery takes about 8.6 hours for a full AC charge, and an estimated 40 minutes from 10% to 80% on a DC fast charger at its 110 kW peak.
Which one is locally assembled?
The B10 is assembled in Malaysia (CKD), while the Atto 3 is fully imported (CBU) from China. Local assembly generally helps pricing and spare-parts supply, and CKD programmes usually signal a longer-term commitment to the model here.
