BYD India has revised the prices of select electric passenger vehicle variants by between ₹50,000 and ₹1,00,000, effective July 1, 2026, citing rising input costs, inflationary pressures and continued investments in technology and network expansion.
The price revision applies to select variants of the BYD ATTO 3, BYD SEALION 7 and BYD SEAL. However, prices of certain BYD ATTO 3 variants and the BYD eMAX 7 remain unchanged.
New eMAX 7 variants introduced
Alongside the price revision, BYD India has expanded its MPV portfolio with the introduction of new BYD eMAX 7 Comfort variants, priced from ₹27.90 lakh.
The newly introduced variants feature a larger 71.8 kWh battery pack as part of an updated product lineup designed for Indian customers.
