BYD Atto 2 and Atto 2 DM-i in Argentina: the best-selling Chinese SUV

The BYD Atto 2 is BYD's best-selling SUV in Argentina, available in two versions at the same price (USD 31,990): pure-electric or DM-i plug-in hybrid.

Key differences:

  • Atto 2 (BEV): 177 hp, ~400 km range, 45 kWh Blade LFP battery
  • Atto 2 DM-i (PHEV): 212 hp combined, 110 km electric + 1,100 km combined range, 18 kWh Blade LFP battery + 1.5L gasoline engine

Both share: 4.31 m long, 425 L boot, 0-100 in ~7.5 s, EuroNCAP 5 stars, 20+ ADAS systems, 6 airbags, 6-year/150k km warranty + 8-year/150k km battery warranty.

For Argentina's current infrastructure (limited public charging, many households without garage outlets), the DM-i hybrid is the safer bet for 80% of buyers. The BEV makes sense for owners with home charging and predictable urban use.
