EVAP chooses the BYD Atto 3 as its official vehicle

The Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines (EVAP) has chosen the BYD Atto 3 as its official vehicle.

Renowned for its cutting-edge electric vehicle technology, the Atto 3 has been selected as the flagship vehicle for EVAP, further solidifying the organization’s commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly transportation solutions.

AC Motors, distributor of BYD cars, turned over the vehicle at AC Motors Centrale, their automotive hub in the heart of Bonifacio Global City.

During the turnover ceremony, representatives from EVAP expressed their gratitude for the support from AC Motors, acknowledging the pivotal role the BYD Atto 3 will play in advancing the electric vehicle landscape in the Philippines.

Toti Zara III, President of AC Motors, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration of EVAP and BYD. He also committed to form a strong partnership with DOE and EVAP to communicate to the market the benefits of EVs not only to the motoring public but for the society as well.

Edmund A. Araga, President of EVAP, said that as an association, EVAP would like to encourage people with the support of AC Motors and other EVAP members that EVAP is promoting the Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) in the Philippines. Through the efforts of DOE -Energy Utilization Management Bureau (EUMB) Director, Patrick Aquino, who leads the way on the Comprehensive Roadmap for the Electric Vehicle Industry (CREVI) and establishing the Electric Vehicle Industry Development Act (EVIDA) law, this works together as private stakeholders uniting and collaborating and work as one in the industry.

As per Director Patrick Aquino, DOE will be rolling out five fast-charging stations here in Luzon. DOE is hopeful to find destination points.

The BYD Atto 3 boasts advanced features including a high-capacity battery, intelligent energy management, and a sleek design that combines aesthetics with functionality. It aligns perfectly with EVAP’s goals of promoting the adoption of electric vehicles to address environmental concerns and reduce carbon emissions.
