> What are the issues? I thought BYD batteries were as good as they get?

BYD atto 3 that OP mentioned:

- 420km wltp range on 60 kwh battery.

Tesla model 3 rwd:

- 554km wltp with 18" wheels - on 56kwh battery.

so tesla is much more efficient while cost difference isnt that much at least in europe. (41k vs 39k)

[basiccalendar74]

you are comparing a sedan and suv though. byd seal is a better comparison to model 3

[adriancr]

Allright,

byd seal 46k euros, 570km wltp, 82.5kwh battery

tesla model 3, rwd, long range, 46k euros, 702km wltp (18" wheels), 78.1kwh battery

Tesla has quite impressive effiency... at same price with less battery...

What's real world side by side testing show?

[adriancr]

WLTP is a standardized test with real world conditions.

It makes it easy to compare range under same conditions.

if you want anything more I'm sure you can search yourself and come to any conclusion you want. Perhaps even share here if you want.

Tesla had to get the price down because of BYD.

Competition is good!
