BYD Tang L debuts as Atto 8 at Paris Motor Show with flash charging

BYD (HKEX: 1211) introduced the Atto 8, the European version of its Tang L, at the Paris Motor Show, bringing flash charging to its European lineup and expanding its range of premium battery electric vehicles in the region.

The 7-seat electric SUV debuted on October 12 as the flagship of BYD's European SUV lineup. Sales are scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2027, according to a statement.

The Atto 8 is the first BYD-branded model in Europe to feature the second-generation Blade Battery and flash charging technology. Both versions come with a 115-kWh battery pack.

Flash charging allows the SUV to charge from 10% to 70% in 5 minutes and from 10% to 97% in 9 minutes, BYD said.

At temperatures of minus 30 degrees Celsius, charging from 20% to 97% takes 12 minutes. The cold-weather test starts at a higher charge level than the 10% used under normal conditions.

To support the technology's roll-out, BYD plans to install 3,000 flash charging stations across Europe by the end of 2027, expanding its charging infrastructure alongside new vehicle launches.

The Atto 8 comes in Design rear-wheel-drive and Excellence all-wheel-drive versions. The rear-wheel-drive model delivers a maximum output of 340 kW (456 hp) and a WLTP combined range of 405 miles, or about 652 kilometers.

The all-wheel-drive version adds 1 front motor, raising maximum system output to 570 kW. 6 seconds and offers a WLTP combined range of 374 miles, or about 602 kilometers.
