I drove few chinese vehicles and currently driving my brothers HS PHEV and they all have one thing in common TERRIBLE AC Performance.
My corolla feels like heaven when i compare to other chinese vehicles

[mgalaxy3]

I thought Haval and Changan had decent ACs?

[pwuser172952586435]

I find no issues in AC performance for Atto3. But AC expectation is relative. Between fast cooling, min temperature, peak summer performance, condensation every one of judging differently

I never had an any issue with the H6 HEV Pre FL. The air flow/ air con could be put in a super-duper mode if need be.

The major problem for anyone adopting to EV is range anxiety and longer charging times.
A colleague recently went from Lahore to Islamabad on his Etron, stopped at bhera to juice up only to find out a car already waiting in line for charging.
In hope those long ques for CNG will not be seen again with EVs.

Bhera is a crowded place. Ask your friend to better charge from pindi bhattian.

Once more EV chargers are installed, I hope this issue will be reduced.

I actually did the other day when I was idling for a while in 45ºC sun. I had the AC set to Lo for both zones and cranked performance to Strong which puts everything in max mode.

After about 20-25 minutes the compressor seemed to shut off for like 1-2 minutes because it had stopped blowing cold air. Not sure what that was about but I was almost done waiting at that point and started to drive, and it turned back on instantly.

I'll try to remember this and bring it up with the service staff once I'm due for my first service in a couple of months.

[alitayyab]

I usually make a note of things on my phones that i have to remind myself to talk about during maintenance visits. Coming back to the issue, i dont think i ever hadit. However, I hardly ever idle in the car unless forced to by traffic or working on car and have to idle.

Can BYD users share if BYD App works in Pakistan and also have PTA issues of onboard SIM been resolved?

[AkbarGr8]

BYD app has still not been enabled. Current ETA is unknown. We heard end of May but the month is almost over.

[umer3611]

Yeah that would be awesome as the app offers a lot of features and is a real game changer.

There is a lot of talk of AC kicking in with a lag ... what is the maximum distance of remote start
(using key, not app) while walking towards the vehicle?

[ifadey]

No idea about key fob range but with app you can remote start from anywhere in the world with internet connectivity.

Many people are using key fob when at home. They remote start the vehicle with AC on before starting the journey.

Chinese EV giant BYD plans to enter Japan’s 18 billion USD microcar market in 2025 with a low-cost electric vehicle as part of its expanding global strategy. Atsuki Tofukuji, president of BYD Japan, confirmed in an interview with the Financial Times that the company will launch a new micro-EV explicitly designed for overseas markets and not sold in China.

...

The new kei car will feature a 20 kWh battery with a WLTC range of 180 km, support 100 kW fast charging, and a heat pump HVAC system. Aimed at competing with Japan’s top-selling electric microcars—the Nissan Sakura and Mitsubishi eK X EV—it may become the first foreign EV explicitly designed for the Japanese kei segment. As microcars grew to 46.3% of Japan’s EV sales in 2022, up from just 2.6% in 2021, BYD is positioning itself to tap into this rapidly expanding market, having already sold 4,530 vehicles in Japan by March 2025.

I received my atto 3 yesterday. Loving the car. They also gave me the 7kw charger for free. Can someone please share the WhatsApp group link with me? Also, I can't figure out how to play music via Bluetooth. The Bluetooth connects but doesn't play music

[ifadey]

As far as I remember,you need to tap the play button in the USB/Bluetooth tab of music app after connecting your phone via Bluetooth

[abbyyyy]

Yeah I had to select Bluetooth music. Working now
