Oh one other thing about voice command - again a number of people fedback that asking the car to "Open Driver Windows" or "Open Front Passenger Window" opens the wrong side.  I've only tried it once but mine opened on the correct side so not sure what is happenning. In any case I won't need to use voice command to open / close windows - prefer to use the buttons on the driver side door.  But on the other hand, using voice command to control the air-conditioning is pretty cool - you can try saying "Hu BYD its too cold" and the car will turn up the temp by 1 deg.  Apparently the updates also incorprate improvement to the air conditioninng function itself.

 

 

 

 

I did not know about those commands for the air con. Is there a doc that lists all the commands? I did try Hey BYD navigate to <blah> and it said that command is not available yet so it must be planned.

 

On the air con front about 2 weeks ago we have an unusually warm day in Wellington and it was quite warm in the car.  Despite cranking the AC all the way down (to the Lo setting) I didn't seem to be able to get cold enough air coming out. So I took the car into the dealer and they said it was fine (running to spec) and compared with another ATTO3 and it was the same.  I know from my other cars if I turn the AC way up (or the coolest) I can feel quite cold air coming out of the vents so this behaviour was unusual.

 

Apologies for the late reply.

Firstly, the voice commands.  There isn't really user manual per-se on how to get it to recognise commands, but from memory, if you go into the Main Menu (Home Screen), scroll to the right to see a list of all apps installed, with the update BYD have installed an app called "BYD Assist" or something like that?  On my car it is now the very first app in the list.  If you launch that app there is a page/setting option on voice commands including listing down the commands you can use - give that a go and see how you get on?

With regards to the a/c - I did find it slow to heat up and cool down (I didn't really need to use cooling function earlier), but it has improved a little since the updates.  A lot of people are still complaining that the a/c is slow to heat up and cool down tho, so perhaps that might be the "norm" in the Atto 3?
