Compare the BYD Atto 2 vs Dacia Bigster
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Dacia Bigster is longer than the BYD Atto 2, and it offers a bigger boot as well as more space when you fold the rear seats. On the move, however, the Atto 2 is more powerful. Inside, both cars feature plenty of hard, scratchy plastics. Behind the wheel, the Atto 2 provides more steering feel than you would expect from a small SUV, whereas the Bigster gives you almost no feedback about what the front wheels are doing. At higher cruising speeds, both models suffer from noticeable wind noise. The Bigster remains comfortable and feels stable once you reach the national speed limit, but the Atto 2 never really feels settled and demands extra steering input to keep you centred in your lane.
