BYD Cars Philippines has expanded its lineup of electrified vehicles with the launch of the All-New Atto 2 in DM-i and EV versions, while simultaneously rolling out the updated Seal 5 DM-I, marking another step forward to bring sustainable mobility. The addition of these two Atto 2 versions reflects the brand’s intent to offer practical choices across different segments, whether for families, professionals, or businesses seeking to modernize their fleets.
The Seal 5 DM-i enters as a refined sedan built on plug-in hybrid technology, combining efficiency with everyday usability. Meanwhile, the All-New Atto 2 arrives as a versatile SUV, available in both pure electric and hybrid variants, designed to lower barriers to ownership and make the switch to electrified driving more attainable. Together, these models strengthen BYD’s growing portfolio of New Energy Vehicles.
Atto 2 EV
THE Atto 2 EV stands as BYD’s most accessible full battery electric SUV, expanding the brand’s electrified lineup with a model that blends everyday usability and modern design. Beneath its clean, compact form lies a front-wheel-drive system powered by a permanent-magnet synchronous motor that produces 174 horsepower and 290 N-m of torque. Energy comes from BYD’s trusted Blade Battery (Lithium Iron Phosphate) with a 45-kWh capacity. This setup delivers up to 380 kilometers of pure electric range on the NEDC cycle.
From the outside, the Atto 2 EV carries a youthful SUV stance with balanced proportions, a bold front fascia, and aerodynamic lines that give it a confident yet approachable look. LED headlamps, daytime running lights, and side-mirror-integrated turn lamps complete its contemporary styling. Inside, the cabin emphasizes comfort and connectivity.
A 12.8-inch rotating touchscreen infotainment system anchors the dashboard, paired with seamless smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The interior layout is straightforward and functional, with supportive seating, multiple charging ports, and thoughtful storage spaces that suit Filipino families and professionals alike.
Safety and visibility are central to the Atto 2 EV’s design. It comes equipped with six parking sensors and a 360-degree see-through mode camera system, giving drivers a clear view of their surroundings and added confidence in tight spaces. Multiple airbags, electronic stability control, and advanced braking technologies further enhance protection across varied driving conditions. A highlight feature is its Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability, allowing owners to power external electronics, appliances, or equipment directly from the vehicle.
Pricing begins at ?1.338 million, effective September 1, 2026. Ownership is supported by an 8-year Drive Unit warranty, a 6-year/160,000 km bumper-to-bumper coverage, and an 8-year/160,000 km Blade Battery warranty. With its grounded design, proven powertrain, and dependable safety systems, the Atto 2 EV stands as a confident step into full electric mobility.
Atto 2 DM-i
FOR those seeking flexibility, the Atto 2 DM-i comes in Dynamic and Premium variants, both built on BYD’s Super DM-i plug-in hybrid system. Each combines a 1.5-liter high-efficiency gasoline engine with an electric motor powered by a 7.9-kWh Blade Battery (Lithium Iron Phosphate). The system delivers a balanced output of 162 hp and 300 N-m of torque. With up to 45 km of electric-only range and a combined range of 1,340 km certified by the Automobile Association Philippines, the Atto 2 DM-i offers the practicality of a hybrid with the efficiency of an EV.
Visually, the DM-i variants distinguish themselves from the EV model through subtle exterior cues. Both feature LED headlamps, daytime running lights, and side-mirror-integrated turn lamps, but the DM-i lineup carries its own color palette-Midnight Blue, Ski White, Harbour Grey, and Cosmos Black-and rides on 215/60 R17 alloy wheels. The Premium variant adds power-folding side mirrors and a 360-degree see-through mode camera system with six parking sensors, enhancing visibility and maneuverability in tight spaces.
Inside, the Dynamic variant offers a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with smartphone connectivity and fabric upholstery, while the Premium steps up with leather seats, a 12.8-inch display, and DiPilot ADAS, BYD’s advanced driver-assistance suite featuring adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking. Both share the same smart-first SUV DNA-comfortable seating, multiple USB ports, and practical storage-built for everyday use.
Pricing starts at ?1.048 million for the Dynamic and ?1.258 million for the Premium, effective September 1, 2026. Each variant includes an 8-year Drive Unit warranty, 6-year/160,000 km bumper-to-bumper coverage, and 8-year/160,000 km Blade Battery warranty, ensuring long-term reliability for Filipino motorists.
Seal 5 DM-i
THE facelifted Seal 5 DM-i builds on the success of its predecessor, now offered in Essential and Dynamic variants. At its core is BYD’s fifth-generation Super DM-i plug-in hybrid system, combining a 1.5-liter high-efficiency gasoline engine with an electric motor powered by BYD’s 7.42 kWh Blade Battery (Lithium Iron Phosphate), generating 160 hp and 210 N-m of torque.
Both variants deliver up to 55 kilometers of pure electric range, with the hybrid system seamlessly taking over for longer journeys. Together, the setup provides a combined driving range of up to 1,600 kilometers, making the Seal 5 DM-i a practical sedan for both city commutes and extended travel.
On the outside, the Seal 5 DM-i presents a refined sedan silhouette with sharper lines, a reworked front fascia, and LED lighting signatures that highlight its modern character. The Dynamic variant adds sportier alloy wheels and chrome detailing, distinguishing it from the Essential.
Inside, both variants feature an 8.8-inch digital cluster and a 10.1-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Automatic climate control with rear vents, multiple USB ports, and a spacious 522-liter trunk expandable to 1,295 liters with folded seats emphasize everyday usability.
Safety and driver confidence are enhanced with Cruise Control, TPMS, rear parking sensors, Vehicle Dynamic Control, Hill Hold Control, Automatic Vehicle Hold, and multiple airbags. Both variants also integrate BYD’s DiPilot driver-assistance system, offering adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and collision mitigation features-technology that elevates the Seal 5 DM-i beyond conventional sedans.
Pricing begins at ?948,000 for the Essential and ?1.048 million for the Dynamic, effective September 1, 2026. Each unit includes an 8-year Drive Unit warranty, 6-year/160,000 km bumper-to-bumper coverage, and 8-year/160,000 km Blade Battery warranty, underscoring BYD’s commitment to long-term reliability.
