No buttons under the screen? Where's the gear selector?

You might doubt me but this comes from [https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/byd-atto-3-changes-rear-wheel-drive-gets-443bhp-range-topper](https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/byd-atto-3-changes-rear-wheel-drive-gets-443bhp-range-topper)

Seems like the moved to a stalk and buttons are now behind the cup holders. It really looks like the are no buttons anymore in the pictures

Funny_Translator1347 2026-02-10 16:18

Nice. When is it coming out? I have the same facelift version, but Yuan Plus from China. https://preview.redd.it/dzcfyns00pig1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5c3a3cd40386e5c066b720b5ccc7262fd19e280 EDIT: Actually, the facelift Evo edition now released in Europe seems more advanced as well. Larger battery, higher charging capacity, from fromt to real wheal drive or 4WD etc. More advanced than the Chinese version…

BYD?? Where the fuck are my buttons !?

HotLie8579 2026-02-10 17:12

I think behind the cup holders, I think the angle makes it look like there’s none

This is the "facelift" of the current version of Yuan Plus (Atto 3). The new Yuan Plus (in China) will be RWD, up to 240KW power and 650KM CLTC range (currently max is around 510KM). Charging speed will go up as well. The larger battery variant will also have 800v architecture.

Funny_Translator1347 2026-02-10 17:55

Yeah. Basically these new Atto 3 Evo specs are those currently in Sealion 7 specs, more or less, right?

Unusual_Emergency_13 2026-02-10 18:46

The size is apparently the same as the current Atto 3 which is around 4.45m (similar to Sealion 05 EV). Sealion 07 is around 4.8m long.

Ah, they kept the door handles and the air vents. Otherwise interesting upgrades

Valoneria 2026-02-10 19:30

Only a few buttons from what i can see https://preview.redd.it/v5toshpaypig1.png?width=2048&format=png&auto=webp&s=3d4d0f50624aa02ab28972b600d5212eeb037fde

HotLie8579 2026-02-10 20:00

Better than nothing I guess :(

mhummel 2026-02-10 20:03

And it looks like you can still play Smoke on the Water with the cubby hole ropes.

gRzeHoO7 2026-02-10 20:04

Wow, atto3 went from meh on all aspects to amazing on acceleration and decent on range and other specs

Yesterday319 2026-02-10 20:13

Looked promising, but unfortunately no sunroof and no head-up-display in the RWD Design version. :(

opackersgo 2026-02-10 21:03

No gear selector is shit.

PrimaryWench 2026-02-10 23:05

They got rid of the jet thruster prndl :(

Psychlonuclear 2026-02-11 00:52

Big dash screen, HUD, RWD. Finally specced correctly.

Suntzu_AU 2026-02-11 01:19

They got rid of the gear selector and moved it onto the right hand side which totally sucks in a RHD market. Otherwise these upgrades are awesome.

Suntzu_AU 2026-02-11 01:20

1000% agree. I love the gear selector in my Atto 3. And I'm in a right-hand drive market. So now they've moved the gear selected to where I'm indicating (right side). Which means if I get out of one Atto into the other Atto Evo, I will be putting the car into reverse as soon as I try to leave my driveway because I'll be trying to indicate left. Fucking stupid decision and mostly to do with cost cutting.

Suntzu_AU 2026-02-11 01:21

Could not agree more. Why the hell did they remove the gear selector? And why the fuck did they put it on the right-hand side? Which totally messes up a right-hand drive market.

Kinenmemes 2026-02-11 01:24

So this an BYD Atto 3 facelift

sween64 2026-02-11 04:34

Now with frunk!

Eluryh 2026-02-11 05:25

Google Built-in! Finally!

IHaveTeaForDinner 2026-02-11 06:03

Wow yeah. One reason I didn't get a leaf was the stupid gear stalk.

Suntzu_AU 2026-02-11 06:27

Looks like BYD doing it across the range. The Atto 1, the Atto 2, the new Sealion 8 and now the revised Atto 3 All have had their gear selectors pushed to the right side of the steering wheel and the indicators moved to the left, which is the freaking opposite of what it should be. stupid.

IHaveTeaForDinner 2026-02-11 08:42

Farking hell. So stupid. Going to be going in reverse everytime it rains.

LeonAlb00355 2026-02-11 09:22

I have got this yuan plus chinese version on december. Apart from the gear selection or the buttons moved further back I have problems with the soft. I'm struggling with google maps because this car has restricted even more access to google. I'm trying different apk-s but each of them has got issues like one can't loggin to my google account or the other one can login but keeps floating when camera's show up.

nexflatline 2026-02-11 09:34

Won't they switch the selector side on RHD markets? They do that with the indicators and it's one of the reasons I chose a BYD rather than other brands.

Phinanzapersonale 2026-02-11 14:00

The Design version is said to have 510km range on WLTP. What do you guys think the effective range on highways (130km/h) for the Design version would be, based on previous experiences? I am looking for a car that could do 400 km of highway without charging. I need that range just once a year but i'd love to not have to stop that time.

T_O_D0r 2026-02-11 19:13

Gear selector by steering wheel

T_O_D0r 2026-02-11 19:14

Damn

c-migs 2026-02-11 23:22

330kw yes please 🚀

Substantial-Topic167 2026-02-19 10:41

I’d go for Child in Time.

Substantial-Topic167 2026-02-19 10:42
