Overview

Charging the Atto 3 at home

The Atto 3 only takes 7 kW AC, so a 22 kW charger is wasted spend. A 7 kW Zappi or Tesla Wall Connector is the smart match, with solar diversion where it counts.

Best for: Buyers who want a Blade-battery SUV under $50k and don't need three-phase speed.

What makes it different

Why the Atto 3 stands out

  • LFP Blade battery — chargeable to 100% daily without degradation
  • Single-phase 7 kW onboard, so a 22 kW charger is money wasted
  • V2L 3 kW output — run a fridge, tools, or camping gear from the car
  • Heat pump standard, drops winter energy use by around 15%
Worth knowing

Charge it to 100% every night, no penalty

Unlike NMC batteries, the Atto 3's LFP chemistry prefers being charged full. Set the app to 100% and forget about it — this is the one EV where the '80% rule' doesn't apply.

On 7 kW single-phase

Empty to full: about 9 hours

On 22 kW three-phase

Same as 7 kW — the car will not accept more

Our pick for the Atto 3

myenergi Zappi 7 kW

We match the charger to what your car can actually accept. Buying a 22 kW unit for a Atto 3 that only takes 7 kW (single phase only) AC is money spent on kilowatts you'll never use. This recommendation gets you charged overnight without overspending.

  • Matches the Atto 3's 7 kW (single phase only) onboard AC rate
  • Type 2 / CCS2 socket, native to the BYD
  • Backed by our 10-year installation warranty
