The company plans to launch its electric compact crossover, the ATTO 2, in France at an initial price of €28,990 ($30,358).

This news follows the Chinese EV giant’s showcase of its vehicle lineup at the Paris Automobile Show last October, which included the regional debut of its SEA Lion 07. BYD aims to establish 100 sales outlets in France, the second-largest economy in the Eurozone. [TechNode reporting, Reuters]
