Australian pricing has been officially announced for the 2026 BYD ATTO 2 small electric SUV, with prices starting at $31,990 before on-road costs. 

The BYD ATTO 2 is now the cheapest electric SUV on sale in Australia, taking the title away from the Leapmotor B10, which is priced from $38,990 drive-away. 

Two variants comprise the Australian model lineup for BYD’s new entry-level SUV: the entry-level Dynamic and a higher-spec Premium variant. 

Both versions are powered by a front electric motor – producing 130kW and 290Nm – sourcing electricity from a 51.13 kWh Blade battery. The ATTO 2 accelerates from 0-100km/h in 7.9 seconds, and has a WLTP driving range of 345km. 

The BYD ATTO 2 supports 7kW AC charging and 82kW DC charging, the latter allowing for 10 to 80 per cent charges to be completed in a little over 38 minutes.
