AI generated from our expert reviews

The BYD Atto 2 is more powerful than the Toyota Yaris Cross, and it offers a larger boot whether the rear seats are upright or folded down. When loading luggage, neither car has a boot lip to contend with. In the back, the Atto 2 gives you buckets of space for tall passengers and enough room for three adults to sit side by side with little complaints. In the Yaris Cross, headroom is at a premium for taller adults, and having three passengers at once may lead to plenty of rubbed shoulders. Through corners on twisty roads, the Atto 2 experiences plenty of body lean, whereas the Yaris Cross does not lean too much.
