BYD ATTO 3
Zeekr X
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 263 miles for the BYD ATTO 3 and 171 miles for the Zeekr X - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The BYD ATTO 3 goes roughly 93 miles further between charging stops. A rapid charge to 80% takes around 35 minutes in the BYD ATTO 3 and 20 in the Zeekr X, so the Zeekr X loses less time at each stop. So the BYD ATTO 3 stops less often while the Zeekr X stops for less time - pick on which you would rather do.
The Zeekr X is the easier car for tight UK car parks: it is 39 mm narrower than the BYD ATTO 3. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 564 mm of total clearance for the Zeekr X and about 525 mm of total clearance for the BYD ATTO 3. The BYD ATTO 3 also turns in a 1.1 m tighter circle, which helps with U-turns and multi-storey ramps.
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 90% battery health for the BYD ATTO 3 and 90% for the Zeekr X. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use LFP-type cells, which are happy charged to 100% every day. Both batteries carry a 8-year manufacturer warranty.
