Electric, with an RRP under the $91,661 fuel-efficient LCT threshold (2026-27). Under the ATO's electric cars exemption, a novated lease of an eligible electric car attracts no FBT if luxury car tax was never payable on it. The benefit is still reportable on your income statement.

Proposed, not law: the 2026-27 Budget would change this for cars over $75,000 from 1 April 2027 and for all electric cars from 1 April 2029. The ATO says the measure is not yet law (page updated 14 May 2026).

Overview

At $39,990 RRP, which is the recommended retail price before on-road costs, the 2026 BYD Atto 3 Essential gets you a 5-seat electric SUV with front-wheel drive. It has a WLTP range of 345km from a 49.9kWh battery. DC fast charging peaks at 70kW. The boot holds 440 litres with the rear seats up and 1,340 litres with them folded. The range suits people whose driving is mostly around town and the suburbs, and anyone planning regular long country runs will need to plan their charging stops.

The 2026 BYD Atto 3 Premium is a practical five-seat electric SUV that appeals to Australian families seeking affordable EV ownership, backed by a solid 5-star ANCAP safety rating and six-year warranty. Its standout strength is the real-world 420km driving range paired with modest annual running costs around $1,428, making it genuinely usable for daily commutes and regional trips without constant charging anxiety. One consideration: the 150kW motor means acceleration is moderate rather than sprightly, so it's better suited to relaxed driving than spirited performance enthusiasts.

The BYD Atto 3 Standard Range (MY2023) was the car that put BYD on Australian driveways: a front-drive electric small SUV with a 150kW/310Nm permanent-magnet motor, 0-100km/h in 7.3 seconds, and BYD's own LFP Blade battery at 49.92kWh. Australian-market range is 345km on the WLTP combined cycle - BYD also quotes 410km NEDC in the same table, and that optimistic figure is the one you will see repeated elsewhere, so treat 345km as the number to plan around. Kerb weight is 1680kg against a 2090kg GVM. Boot space runs 440 to 1,340 litres, DC charging peaks at 70kW on CCS2, and a heat pump plus vehicle-to-load output are standard.

Australian-market range is 420km on the WLTP combined cycle - BYD also quotes 480km NEDC in the same table, and that optimistic figure is the one you will see repeated elsewhere, so treat 420km as the number to plan around.

The MY2024 BYD Atto 3 Standard Range is the entry version of the small electric SUV that put BYD on the map in Australia. A 150 kW / 310 Nm front motor is fed by a 49.92 kWh Blade battery, giving 345 km on WLTP or 410 km on NEDC, and BYD quotes 7.9 seconds to 100 km/h. It charges at up to 7 kW AC or 70 kW DC on CCS2 and supports V2L. At 4,455 mm long with 440 to 1,340 litres of boot space, 175 mm of unladen ground clearance and a 1,680 kg kerb weight against a 2,090 kg GVM, it tows 750 kg braked. The MY2024 update brought a 15.6-inch rotating screen in place of the earlier 12.8-inch unit, along with wireless Apple CarPlay, an eight-speaker Dirac HD system, a panoramic sunroof, heated front seats and dual-zone climate as standard.

The MY2024 BYD Atto 3 Extended Range is the long-range version of BYD's small electric SUV. The same 150 kW / 310 Nm front motor is fed by a larger 60.48 kWh Blade battery for 420 km on WLTP or 480 km on NEDC, and 7.3 seconds to 100 km/h. DC charging rises to 88 kW on CCS2, up from 70 kW on the Standard Range and from the 80 kW quoted on the MY2022 sheet. It weighs 1,750 kg kerb against a 2,160 kg GVM, tows 750 kg braked, and carries the same 440 to 1,340 litre boot, 15.6-inch rotating screen, eight-speaker Dirac HD audio, panoramic sunroof, heated front seats, dual-zone climate and full safety suite as the Standard Range - every equipment row in the MY2024 matrix is standard on both.
