You have PKR 89 to 90 lac. You want an electric SUV.
And here’s the thing: the BYD Atto 3 Advance and the GAC AION V Premium are separated by just PKR 91,000 on the sticker, but they are meaningfully different cars.
One gives you more power and torque. The other gives you a significantly larger battery and nearly 75km more realistic range.
Same price bracket. Very different propositions. This comparison will tell you exactly which one to buy, and why the decision is more nuanced than the price tag suggests.

Who Should Buy Which?
Choose BYD Atto 3 Advance if…
- You want more power and torque (201 hp, 310 Nm)
- The 15.6″ rotating screen genuinely appeals to you
- Approx. 250–290 km real-world range is enough for your daily use
- BYD’s established Pakistan market presence since 2022, with Mega Motors, gives you confidence
Choose GAC AION V Premium if…
- Range confidence matters, 64.5 kWh battery, Approx. 300–350 km real-world
- The 8-year / 200,000 km battery warranty is a priority
- LMC’s nationwide after-sales (Kia infrastructure) gives you peace of mind
- Rear passenger comfort (137° recline) matters for your family
Bottom line: PKR 91,000 apart, but far from identical. The Atto 3 Advance wins on power, torque, and screen size. The AION V Premium wins on battery capacity, real-world range, warranty, and rear comfort — at PKR 91,000 less. For city-only driving and a sportier feel, go Atto 3. For inter-city range confidence and long-term ownership security, the AION V is a harder argument to counter.
