Compare the BYD Atto 2 vs Lexus LBX
AI generated from our expert reviews
If you are weighing up these two small SUVs, the BYD Atto 2 is more powerful than the Lexus LBX and offers more room with the back seats folded. The Atto 2 also accommodates rear passengers far better, providing buckets of space for tall passengers and enough room for three adults to sit side by side with little complaints. In contrast, fitting three across the back of the LBX is a challenge, and tall passengers will be rubbing their hair on the roof lining. Packing the boot is also simpler in the BYD because there is no boot lip to contend with, whereas the Lexus has a deep lip you must reach into when loading heavy items. Country roads will not provide much driving excitement in either car, however, as both lean quite a lot through bends.
