I'd love to hear more about your experience with BYD. The ex just bought one and my kids ride in it daily. I helped negotiate the sale - I drive a Tesla and I'm very happy with the BYD.
- lazide 4mo agoBrazilians got a bunch of them and they are super common in Brazil. Also common - broken suspension parts from driving them in Brazil. Also, the only cars I’ve ever ridden on that the top of my head literally touches the headliner while sitting in the back seat. Other than that, they seem good?
- dotancohen 4mo agoGreat to know, thanks. Israeli roads are typically well maintained, but I'll keep an eye out for suspension damage. In this Atto 3, I've ridden in the back a few times and my head does not touch the headliner. I'm 170cm.
- lazide 4mo agoYeah, I’m 182+ cm, so a bit bigger. It still surprised me. BYD Dolphin if I remember was the worse. The suspension issues seem like a common theme though, they aren’t built as sturdily as most cars on that front.
