Exciting to see an AWD option coming. I wonder if it will have the 245kw motor on the rear axle like the incoming 2027 EX5?

Hopefully we see an AWD EX5 as well.

Awesome we are getting the AWD model unlike Australia. Although certainly pricier than I expected.

Current Atto 3 = $49,990
Atto 3 Evo = $59,900
Atto 3 Evo Premium = $65,900
Atto 3 Evo Performance = $75,990

More expensive than the Zeekr X AWD. I wonder of this means the Atto 5 will be even pricier? Ouch.

This makes the Xpeng / Geely / MG offerings more appealing.

I’d love to see more EV options and I feel manufacturers could achieve this by offering LESS powerful models.

The AWD performance models are incredible, but a big chunk of the population don’t need 600+ hp with instant torque - but may need the traction AWD offers.

I’d love to see more AWD models in the 300-450hp range - still incredibly powerful for most people upgrading from ICE.

Take the Geely EX5 which is moving from a 160kw FWD to a 245kw RWD, this would be a great 320kw AWD family wagon.

Thoughts?
