My wife just picked up our brand new blue BYD Atto 3 and the fam is already loving it!
Here's our first impressions - BYD Atto 3 is great for families! Ride is smooth, the seats are comfy, and the massive sunroof keeps everyone happy in the back. Tech is pretty cool too. Giant touchscreen nav is easy to use and the headlights are insanely bright. Also, charging is quite fast. Overall, we're big fans now!

We just have a problem with lane assist coz it's a bit overzealous and needs a software update to calm down. The brakes take some getting used to, and the regeneration is basically non-existent right now. Also missing are a speed limiter and Android Auto/app store integration.
 
Welcome to the forum and congrats on your Atto! It sounds like there might be a few updates available for your car. You can take it to the dealer to get them installed, and they can also check for any other potential issues.
 
The 2024 BYD Atto 3 is a good, budget-friendly electric car for families. It can fit three child car seats, but two is more comfortable. It has plenty of space for passengers and luggage.
 
We’ve got three kids comfortably seated in the back of our Atto 3. Two in forward-facing seats and one rocking the rear-facing setup. The seats are snug, yep, they’re touching sides, but there’s still plenty of wiggle room for the kiddos. And the boot? Total MVP, it swallows up our pram and still has loads of space for all the other bits and bobs we lug around.
 
I agree with @thom144e. I highly recommend getting a full boot liner from AliExpress. It does a great job of protecting the cargo area from dirt, spills, and anything else you might bring in and out, like a stroller. It covers the floor and sides of the boot, and even the backs of the rear seats. If you have a rear-facing car seat, you'll definitely want some good back seat covers too. Our kid loves to kick the back of the seat! hahaha
 
Great honest review of your new car! Picking the right one for everyday use is so important, especially when you plan on keeping it for a while. BYD seems to offer a lot of car for the money in the EV market. Hope you can get the little bugs worked out soon! Enjoy your new car!
 
We all look for a car that fits our needs, and it sounds like you've found the perfect car for you! Enjoy it! I'd love to hear how you like it in the future.
 
Choosing the right car is crucial, especially when you're living with it every day for three years. BYD offers great value for the price in a crowded EV market. Hope those initial issues get ironed out soon
