Emu Plains Market, in a friend's BYD Atto 3

Day trip with friends in their BYD Atto 3 out to Emu Plains Market, followed by a late lunch at Somers General Store. Francis and Ron were on brand with our Tesla Tripping caricatured tote bags 😉.

We like a lot about the Atto 3, including the ride height, vehicle to load and retractable sun roof. The CD looking air vents and other decor feel a bit weird. If you like a more traditional car, with more buttons, then this might be a better option for you than a Tesla.

Petrol prices are spiking again. We noticed the $2.30 per litre signs at petrol stations as we drove along.

The petrol bowsers out the front of Somers General Store are now just an ornamental relic of the past.

Charging

We charged both cars for free, from solar on our home’s roof. It is just so easy. $0 per km.

  1. The guitar strings on the doors are groovy.

    Will you buy an Atto now instead of a Y?

    1. Kylie Gilroy I couldn’t fit my metal water bottle in the door pocket, behind the strings, like I can in the Tesla.

      I don’t think the Atto 3 is for us. The tech on the Tesla has me hooked so far. But I’m happy to look at alternatives.

  2. I think the Atto3 is a great car, but not all people like the interior.
