Chronology
PredecessorBYD Yuan Pro

The BYD Atto 2 is a subcompact crossover SUV (B-segment) manufactured by BYD Auto since 2024. First sold in China as a battery electric vehicle called the BYD Yuan Up (Chinese: 比亚迪元UP) and part of the BYD Yuan series that is named after the Yuan dynasty, the Atto 2 was introduced in February 2024 and entered production in March 2024.[6]

In September 2024, the car went on sale in the first export markets, starting with South America under the name BYD Yuan Pro[7] (except in Colombia, where it retains its original name), and with a different local name BYD S1 Pro in Costa Rica.[8] The vehicle is marketed in Europe, Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand as the BYD Atto 2.[9]

In October 2025, BYD introduced a plug-in hybrid version of the vehicle, marketed as the BYD Atto 2 DM-i. Not available in China, the model debuted in Europe before expanding to other regions such as Latin America and South Africa.[10]

Overview

The Atto 2 was launched in China on 26 March 2024 in three variants, with the option between 32 and 45.1 kWh battery option sizes.[11][12] The Yuan Up is based on the e-Platform 3.0 and powered by BYD Blade lithium-ion LFP Battery.[12]

The Atto 2 adopts the Dragon Face design concept that is used on the Song L EV, with a 'dragon face' front fascia, flap-type door handles, a floating roof design, a full-width rear taillight bar, and the rear bumper apron mimics the front bumper design.[13][14]

The interior has a D-shaped steering wheel with a signature Yuan (元) logo, 8.8-inch LCD instrument cluster, a 12.8-inch infotainment touchscreen display which can rotate between landscape and portrait modes, perforated leatherette upholstery for the seats, a wireless charging pad, a crystal gear selector and physical buttons in the centre console.[13]
