Hi Chris, my name is Howard Cairns, a BYD Atto 3 owner and about a month ago I joined in on the 3 way discussion on BYD issues that were discussed on Ian of BYD & Tesla Owners YT page . Discussion concluded that there would be a questionnaire for all to contribute suggestions to BYD for improvements to our BYD Atto3's. I have seen nothing since. I have tried to contact Ian about what happened but no response. Do you know anything? Cheers, Howard
I look at the Tesla interior! NO thanks ! BYD anytime of the day but it’s the seal I want
Whats the point you want to make? Atto 3 is not Telsla related, seal is
I went the other way, much prefer the Atto. I particularly like its AM/FM/DAB+ and Internet radio, its nice smooth ride, ease of entryexit (which is much easier on my back) and powered sun shade/sun roof and finally low price (in my case $48K). The sunshade is great for climate control keeps car cool in summer and warm in winter. I can get very good range out of the Atto, but above 100km/hr the Tesla gets better range (about 10%@110km/hr). 90km/hr and below they have much the same range.
I put 20” rims with wide tyres on our Atto 3 and it handles so much better. It really improves cornering and going around round a bouts
Good to know! That's what i want.
@@ChrisEVcars the guys at Ozzy Tyres in Liverpool did mine. Check their website gallery to see, mine have the Hussla Savage
Just note to you guys..saw your atto3 1.6 update video. Said you found no changes. Apple car play is now wireless and there are 3 finger gestures to change fan speed and temp.
How do you turn off the DLR when parked?
Not sure, my software i can't do it.
Deposit ready on Monday.
It's great car and great price.
👍
I would have been interested to see what options there were with the windscreen wipers... Thanks for doing this though. Cool 👍🙂
Hi Andrew, it's just standard wipers.
Great video. A quick feedback mate. You asked him a question, he was responding and you cut him off and changed the conversation. I wanted to know his view on that very important question but he didn't get to respond in full. Otherwise, fantastic. Great stuff.
Thanks for the tip!
I would have seriously looked at one of these apart from their crap warranty. Shows how much confidence they have in their batteries, like all EV manufacturers!!
8 years 160km . What else do you want ?
@@holycreationUmmm. Try unlimited km warranties like Toyota and Hyundai offer for their Hybrids.
@@SuperCashionbut you will getting a new car right before the warranty runs out do you? A 50K car runs for 8 years that’s fare enough. Or you just keep buying a second hand in your life is also fine I guess.

What's the current wait time?
Will be here in June or July.
What is volume of frunk, in litres.
Main compartment is about 21liters.
It’s good you’re happy with it , I’d be interested to see the exact same trip every couple of years as the battery degrades . A family member has a dual motor Tesla , like all EVs it comes with a bunch of compromises , and one big things about EVs , if you ever have a family emergency and have to cover a lot of miles in a hurry , EVs are a disaster, you cannot rely on them. And that piss poor range is only going to shrink as the car gets older. But all the best to you.
What rot. You're recycling the same points that have not been accurate for even a decade, and your 'family emergency' line is deliberately manipulative. The fact is you don't own and EV or have really done any research into it, but.... a family member apparently has one so, somehow this qualifies your position? You have no idea even of the durability of the battery in this car - you are just basing it on what was true for the Nissan Leaf about a decade or so ago. Has your family member's battery degraded enough to qualify this? I bet it hasn't. A quick google and you'll actually have a sense of how much you don't actually know. But hey, if you love paying for increasingly expensive petrol just because you think the battery won't last (untrue) and you.... may.... may... need to cover ground quickly because of a family emergency, well. Good luck to you.
Can you set a speed limiter on it? My fiance loves using that instead of the cruise control especially in town??
The main driving power is the electric motor, ICE engine only clicks in at certain speed like in 5th gear in normal car, so it doesn't have a traditional gear box.
Hey Mate, Do you remember this car having a driver seat memory. thanks
not sure but seats are only 4 way adjustment.
Win what? If you mean the battle to end our addiction to the instrument of poison that is the ICE for (at east) road transport then, NO!!... and anyone buying a hybrid who thinks they are doing *anything* to that end is a complete moron. If, on the other hand, you mean the race to come up with a comfort blanket for the lazy/ignorant/hypocritical/stupid to allows them to convince themselves they are being 'green' (but actually achieving nothing more than perpetuating Big Oil's grip on our economy and continuing to destroy our ecology) then, YES!!!
A Hybrid car is like an iPhone with an attached physical keyboard.
Err... more like an iPhone attached to a portable generator... and equally as useful.
@@martinwinlow Yeah but, with the generator you could go to any petrol station which are everywhere and have your iPhone's generator full in a couple of minutes. Without the generator you would have to wait hours for the iPhone to recharge.
@@synthmaker I think you rather missed the point - besides it's not like electrical sockets are a rarity, exactly, is it?
@@martinwinlow Not sure if I missed the point. I own a Tesla Model 3 Performance, it takes me 5 seconds to plug it in the evening and another 5 seconds to unplug it in the morning. I never have to go to a petrol station where, even if it takes just a couple of minutes, I would have to be holding the nozzle and process a payment. My point is that when I hear criticism about how it takes too long to charge an EV, it makes not sense to me. People that have never experienced it should try to compare it with charging an iPhone, even if it takes a couple of hours, you're not waiting holding the cable. It's very clear to me that EVs are the future, the only reason some people still prefer hybrids is because of myths like the charging time. Also with a Tesla there's absolutely no range anxiety.
Even Toyota is going to use BYD’s DMi technology. I guess DMi or hybrid has good future.
I work near the port of Brisbane where all the cars come off the ships from overseas, I saw a truck loaded with BYD ATTO 3 with the plastic paint protection film on the sides and bonnet so I guess new BYD ATTO 3 are coming off the ships possibly still 2023 plated? I don’t think they where the 2024 version
2024 version has no chome easiest way to tell. Have you seen any Sealion 6 yet?
I want Sealion 07 BEV. BEV, LFP are safer and cheaper than P/HEV.
Me too i am waiting
The Sealine 6 is like a diesel electric locomotive a diesel engine driving a generator for electric traction motors in the bogies. Only the BYD is keeping the battery charge up .
Exactly right but you can set different modes.
Look up who made the first Hybrid
BYD
Hybrid one step to BEV
Hi Chris, do you happen to know the price and how long will it be deliver if I order now?
Not sure exact price, but you can order from BYD Automotive.com.au. First delivery should be here in June according to BYD staff.
These ev cars are soo fiddly with all the tec malarkey , mthanks for your discovery vid , ps dont give up your day job.😁
Hello Chris , congrats ..I was thinking of buying BMW iX1 ....Looks like I won't loose much changing to BYD Sealion 6 and saving fortune!! How long will it take to get the car delivery if we order this month from BYD blacktown. Thanks
My biggest concern with the EV, how long the battery warranty will last, and after the warranty finish, how much is the replacement costs,
8years is a long warrenty for the battery.
At 120 thousand km, I saw someone who received an offer of 17k dollars from Tesla for battery replacement. With a simple calculation, he already used 8 liters of petrol per 100 km. Not to mention the cost of electricity and the incredibly expensive tire cost. I don't think there is anything green about disposing of such a large battery. At the moment, EV car technology is completely far from its original purpose of being environmentally friendly. Not paying for fuel at all. Sounds like nothing more than self-deception.
@@BluePandaa284 The current Tesla warranty is 8years, 160000km, so clearly the average battery should last a lot longer than that.
Looks like they removed the ‘BYD Sealion 6’ badging at the back?
It could pre production model
What I’d really like to know is what it’s fuel consumption is once the battery is depleted. It looks to be (at best) 6l/100km (1000km from a 60l tank) but once you take the battery range of 80km off that it’s 6.5l/100km. Okay for a 2.1T car I guess. Disappointing it is FWD and runs on 95RON fuel. Also disappointing is it can only tow 1300kg (braked). It is cheaper than a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV but inferior in my opinion. Supposedly there is a Sealion 07 coming which is all electric and going to have the same battery pack as the Seal.
New Byd Sea lion 2.9L/100km or 2100km per full tank for only 14k USD, how about that???
@@TheKkpop1 It will be sedan, not SUV
Wow lots of people appear to be selling out on the EV story , BYD sucked as us all in now smelly cancer causing engines for the win. What a joke and with no decent service agents I am tipping high service costs and poor warranty support. After reports in China of workers paid a pittance and having horrible working conditions now going on strike , standby for price increases and supply issues. BYD are a true sell out , what's next a hybrid dolphin.
It's not my cup of tea but there will be a big market for this car.
Subscribed, well done Chris. BYD is truly awesome！ Toyota is going to use BYD‘s hybrid technology this year too. BYD‘s products are really high quality and competitive price. Wish all other car companies can drop their price to help cost of living crisis.
Thanks for the sub! Tesla just dropped their prices again, which means chesper EVs
Champion Chris! This Sydney NSW BYD dealership is a fair bit swisher than our Melbourne ones. Dandenong is next to Coffey Ford, the showroom will hold one car. Brighton on Nepean Highway Gardenvake is well located but all the cars are outside. With the Sealion 6 you are our eyes and ears!
Thanks. There is a black Sealion in Melbourne somewhere.
Chris did you happen to find out where the 12v battery is located and if it’s an LFP ?
I asked but BYD staff don't know where it is. I am almost certain it will be LFP.
Don't forget the transportation, tax and dealerships costs, employees salary ect . Ask America to sell us that price,
Interesting comments made in your show. However, I think you have missed the point why PHEV are actually becoming more popular, and it’s not the fact that people are worried about the unknown. Let’s take a look at the price point, its ability and the competition. Let’s take a family of four who the dad is the main driver who commutes 60-90km round trip to work. They have a small camper trailer and they like to go on some dirt tracks to get to these places. The dad has the option to have a novated lease at work and so can serious save some money due to the FBT allowances (until April next year). So here’s a car which won’t break the bank, is AWD, can tap into the solar power and go on long trips without any range anxiety. I have just described most Dad’s in Australia! This isn’t a transition to EV. It’s a reality of what can seriously tick all the family boxes, safe some coin and enjoy some superb acceleration to make him feel like he’s in a hot hatch. A serious contender in the auto market.
Good assessment for the market for these cars.
Maybe true for some, but it will still act as an EV transition as people will experience EV drive train and performance for the first time. By the time they replace it, 800km pure EV range will be a reality.
They should have made the BYD SeaLion6 RHD AU$34,990 driveaway in WA (the most expensive state to buy a brand new car in) and not a cent more. Then maybe some would have bought it to use it without petrol and only the 80km - 90km range battery - more than enough to zip around in the day for work/school and then charge it from your 7kw/11kw home wall EVSE cable. AU$48,990 (entry level spec) MSRP & AU$52,990 (top level spec) MSRP is ridiculous. BYD AU & Eagers have lost their mind it seems
BYD actually not controls the price sell in Australia, they are made by local dealer and agents
PHEVs with the battery range this Sealion 6 has is the way to go. Perfect for urban use and with a spare wheel or space saver perfect for country road trips. I’ve rooftop solar so keeping this PHEV charged would be simple. A Tesla model 3 over 1500km in eastern Vic over Easter yes the super chargers are quick to recharge but there’s a lot of charging stops. I came away not like the highland 3 one little bit. Cars like the ATTO 3 Melbourne to Daylesford and back, if you get to woodend and find the charger not working then it’s a drive to Kyneton to charge. Yes petrol is expensive but against this you have depreciation of an EV. Once a petrol car is 5-10 years the depreciation almost ends, yes there’s a bit more maintenance. With the Toyota RAV 4 hybrid we took one of these from Melb to Daylesford and back twice in a weekend. Typical Toyota lots of grey plastic and the radar cruise control problematic, if another car passes you and cuts in in front of you, on go the Toyota brakes and not in a gentle way. With the Toyota the battery only powers the car to perhaps 40/50km/hr then the ICE cuts in. If they could put a bigger battery in so this happens at 80km/hr would be great. In my experience the only time you experience the electric part of a hybrid Toyota is in traffic, sadly it’s all too short. The premium Sealion 6 has 96kW and 220nm on the petrol engine plus it’s a turbo. I know it weighs just over 2mt. My current car is half this weight with 77kw and 175nm. With the Sealion 6 I’d be buying a spare wheel or space saver, Jack and jacking pads and if it’s on chinese tyres they would get replaced down the track with Michelins or continentals.
@@YSA920 agreed, putting a full sized spare tyre in the back (boot) just incase is a must. it should fit but might raise up a bit and might have to make a make-shift cover of somesort
Driving a Tesla, particularly in the country, is the exact opposite of relaxing. Passengers in my experience get very unsettled. The microphone is nowhere as effective as Apple Car play when it comes to instruction, the lack of indicators stalks in the Highland model 3 is problematic, you can’t even open the glovebox without going to the stupid screen. No provision of or space for a spare wheel, Musk is from another planet. We experienced a lot of phantom braking on our 1500km country round trip. Urban wise using cruise control whip is necessary in draconian Vic I found the Tesla braking heavily when just driving down a 50km/hr road and about to pass a parked car. In my mind the Tesla was as relaxing as minding a Rottweiler or kelpie dog. It was the end of my Tesla ownership aspirations. Coming home we struck heavy rain. When this happens you look a lot of functions, cruise Control, etc. but musk saved a few scheckles going from radar to cameras?
When should I use VTOL adaptor? 12V batteries is nearly out? Thx David
Hi David, if you want charge your 12v battery, instead taking out of car you can just plug in VTOL into the car. If car senses the adopter it will start a charge on the 12v battery.
@@ChrisEVcars Thanks Chris, are you able to send me a link to your VTOL referral for 12v battery after 1 year expiry date:) Thanks David
