In the 100,000 RMB-level pure electric SUV market, consumers have increasingly diverse choices. How to select a model that truly offers excellent value for money, meeting both daily commuting needs and providing a high-quality experience has become a core concern for many families. The BYD ATTO (Yuan) UP, with its brand strength and balanced performance, has secured a leading position in the market. The newly launched 2026 Chang'an Qiyuan Q05, with its slogan of "equal configuration," is poised to overtake it. This article will use the Chang'an Qiyuan Q05 506 Laser Ultra+ (MSRP 109,900 RMB) and the BYD ATTO UP Smart Driving Edition 401KM Super Edition (MSRP 119,800 RMB) as examples, providing a comprehensive analysis from six dimensions: price, configuration, design, safety, intelligence, and applicable scenarios.
After dealer discounts in China, the actual selling price of the Chang'an Qiyuan Q05 is RMB 104,900, while the BYD ATTO UP is RMB 109,800.
Looking at the starting price, the ATTO UP's entry-level price is RMB 96,800, while the new Q05 starts at RMB 79,900, offering a wider price range and a lower starting price.
Overall, with current market discounts, the Chang'an Qiyuan Q05 demonstrates stronger price appeal.
Chang'an Qiyuan Q05: Features a more modern design language, with a continuous light strip on the front, giving it a stronger sense of technology and higher recognizability, potentially appealing more to younger users. Its overall lines are more rounded.
BYD ATTO UP: The design leans towards a more conservative family style, with a highly recognizable front end and traditional body proportions, conforming to most people's classic impression of a family SUV.
For family cars, space is a crucial factor, and the all-new Q05 demonstrates a clear advantage in this area:
Vehicle Dimensions: The all-new Q05 measures 4435*1855*1595mm, with a wheelbase of 2735mm; the ATTO UP measures 4310*1830*1675mm, with a wheelbase of 2620mm. This over 11cm difference in wheelbase directly translates to more ample legroom in the rear seats.
Storage Space: The all-new Q05's trunk has a standard capacity of 540L (including a 90L sunken storage compartment), expanding to 1380L with the rear seats folded down; the ATTO UP has a standard capacity of 340L, increasing to 1320L with the rear seats folded down. The all-new Q05 is more comfortable when loading large items or traveling with the whole family.
Intelligent driving is a crucial area of competition in the current vehicle market.
Chang'an Qiyuan's all-new Q05: Brings LiDAR technology down to the 100,000 RMB price range. A network of 27 hardware components, including LiDAR and high-definition cameras, combined with the Horizon J6M chip with 128 TOPS computing power, enables high-speed NOA (Noise, Autopilot) navigation assistance and all-scenario automatic parking.
BYD ATTO UP: Lacking LiDAR, it features a single NVIDIA DRIVE Orin N chip with 84 TOPS computing power. Its DiPilot 100 system supports L2-level functions such as high-speed navigation, meeting daily driving needs.
Chang'an Qiyuan's all-new Q05: With its larger space, longer range, and richer intelligent comfort features, it is more suitable for families who need ample space, frequently travel long distances, or plan weekend trips and camping. Faster charging efficiency and lower energy consumption also make it more economical and convenient for daily use.
BYD ATTO UP: Leveraging its established brand reputation and market foundation, it's suitable for users seeking stability and reliability, with a balanced need for basic intelligence and spaciousness. For scenarios primarily involving urban commuting, its overall performance is stable and reliable.
Comfort Features: The Chang'an Qiyuan Q05 offers heated and ventilated front seats with 8-point massage, a power leg rest for the front passenger seat that can recline 165 degrees, adjustable rear seats, 256-color ambient lighting, and an 8-speaker audio system. The ATTO UP only offers heated and ventilated front seats, lacking massage and leg rests, and its audio system features a single-color ambient lighting strip and 6 speakers.
Range and Recharge:
Range: The new Q05 CLTC has a range of 506km, while the ATTO UP has 401km.
Charging Speed: The new Q05 supports 3C fast charging, charging from 30% to 80% in 15 minutes; ATTO UP requires approximately 30 minutes to complete the same charge. In general scenarios, the former has higher charging efficiency.
After a comprehensive comparison, it can be found that:
The Chang'an Qiyuan new Q05, as a newcomer, demonstrates "superior" strength in terms of space, range, charging efficiency, intelligent driving hardware, and comfort features, striving to impress users with higher cost-effectiveness.
The BYD ATTO UP, relying on BYD's strong brand influence and deep technological accumulation, offers a highly mature and balanced product performance, with high market recognition.
How to Choose?
If you are looking for a one-stop solution, desiring as many cutting-edge features as possible within your budget, especially valuing space and the potential for intelligent driving expansion, then the Chang'an Qiyuan new Q05 is a more worthwhile choice. If you value brand long-term stability and widespread market validation, and are looking for a well-rounded, reliable, and worry-free family SUV, then the BYD ATTO UP remains a safe and good choice.
Ultimately, these two vehicles represent two mature approaches in the current 100,000 RMB-level pure electric SUV market. We recommend that you consider your own needs and preferences, visit a dealership for a test drive, and find the one that best suits you.
