BYD Atto 3
₹24.99 Lakh onwards
BYD is an electric only brand, and its real edge is that it makes its own Blade batteries. That control over the battery is why BYD cars in India give strong real world range for the money. The brand sells four EVs here, covering an SUV, a sedan, an MPV and a larger SUV.
Prices run from about Rs 24.99 Lakh to Rs 55.90 Lakh. The BYD Atto 3 is the entry SUV and a sensible first EV for a family. The BYD Seal is the sporty sedan, quick off the line and settled at highway speeds. The eMAX 7 is the practical seven seat option for buyers who need three rows.
At the top sits the Sealion 7, a roomy SUV with big power and a long driving range. Check the the BYD Sealion 7 figures before you buy, since real numbers matter more than the brochure. For a driver ready to go fully electric, BYD is a serious choice, and our team tracks every price and gathers owner reviews so you can judge each model honestly.

BYD is a small but premium electric-only brand in India, with about 0.1 percent of the overall passenger vehicle market in August 2026. That is normal for a maker selling only higher-priced EVs. Its cars, from the Atto 3 to the Seal, all use BYD's own Blade battery. For a buyer, BYD brings serious EV engineering and long range, but the compact network and early resale picture call for an eyes-open purchase.

BYD cars: frequently asked questions
Does BYD sell any petrol or diesel cars in India?
No. Every BYD sold in India is fully electric, so there is no petrol, diesel or CNG version of any model. The range has four cars: the Atto 3 SUV from ₹24.99 lakh, the eMAX 7 MPV from ₹27.90 lakh, the Seal sedan from ₹41.50 lakh and the Sealion 7 SUV from ₹41.90 lakh. BYD also shows its DM-i plug-in hybrid technology on its Indian website, but no DM-i model is on sale here yet. If you can charge at home, any of the four will cost far less per kilometre to run than a petrol car.
What is the cheapest BYD car in India?
The Atto 3 Dynamic, at ₹24.99 lakh ex-showroom. It is a five seat electric SUV with a 49.92 kWh Blade battery rated at 468 km on ARAI tests. It already has a panoramic sunroof, a 12.8 inch rotating touchscreen and a 360 degree camera. The Premium at ₹30.35 lakh moves to a 60.48 kWh battery rated at 521 km, and the Superior at ₹34.49 lakh adds driver assist and ventilated seats. The next cheapest BYD is the eMAX 7 MPV, from ₹27.90 lakh. Taxes on EVs vary by state, so check the on-road price below.
What is the BYD Blade Battery?
It is the lithium iron phosphate battery that BYD designs and builds itself, and every BYD sold in India uses one. BYD says the Blade has passed a nail penetration test, one of the hardest checks for a battery overheating, and survived a 46 tonne truck driving over it. Pack sizes run from 49.92 kWh in the Atto 3 Dynamic to 82.56 kWh in the Seal and Sealion 7. BYD backs the battery with an 8 year or 1,60,000 km warranty on all four models. Each model page below lists the battery and range of every version.
Which BYD electric car has the longest range?
The Seal Premium Range, rated at 650 km on the NEDC cycle from its 82.56 kWh battery. Next come the Sealion 7 Premium at 567 km and the eMAX 7 Superior at 530 km, both also NEDC figures. The Atto 3 Premium and Superior are rated at 521 km, but on ARAI tests, so those numbers are not directly comparable. BYD itself notes that real range depends on speed, temperature and load. If range matters most, the Seal Premium Range at ₹46.20 lakh gives you the most kilometres per charge of any BYD.
Does BYD make a seven-seater electric car?
Yes. The eMAX 7 is an electric MPV sold with six or seven seats. BYD currently lists it in Comfort and Superior trims, from ₹27.90 lakh for the Comfort 6 Seater to ₹29.90 lakh for the Superior 7 Seater, ex-showroom. Both trims use a 71.8 kWh Blade battery, rated at 485 km on the MIDC cycle for the Comfort and 530 km on the NEDC cycle for the Superior. The 7 seater has a 60:40 split bench in the middle row, and the 6 seater two captain chairs. With the third row folded, the boot grows from 180 to 580 litres.
Which BYD car is the most powerful?
The Seal Performance AWD and the Sealion 7 Performance AWD share the top spot. Each pairs a 230 kW rear motor with a 160 kW front motor for 390 kW, about 523 bhp. The Seal is the quicker of the two, with BYD quoting 0 to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds against 4.5 seconds for the heavier Sealion 7. Next come the Seal Premium Range and Sealion 7 Premium, with 230 kW from a single rear motor. The Atto 3 and the eMAX 7 Superior make 150 kW, which suits relaxed family driving more than quick getaways.
