Verdict
These two serve very different Malaysian jobs. At RM125,800, the BYD Atto 3 costs RM5,728 more than the RM120,072 Peugeot Landtrek, but brings a 201 hp electric motor, 420 km range, 110 kW DC charging and RM160 annual road tax. Its 4,455 mm length also makes it 876 mm shorter than the 5,331 mm pickup. The Landtrek counters with all-wheel drive, an 80-litre diesel tank, a 3,180 mm wheelbase and a full-size spare. Pick the Atto 3 for daily passenger use and active safety; buy the Landtrek only when the pickup format and AWD are central to the job.
Pick the BYD Atto 3 if you want a 420 km EV with 110 kW DC charging, 201 hp and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go in a 4,455 mm SUV.
Pick the Peugeot Landtrek if you need a 5,331 mm diesel pickup with all-wheel drive, an 80-litre tank and a full-size spare wheel.
