Jakarta –
Different from other electric cars, BYD Atto 3 and Dolphin electric cars has a special accessory in the form of a ‘guitar string’ in the inner door area. This accessory is made of rubber and can be strummed or played like a guitar or bass.
However, these ‘guitar strings’ are not presented as musical instruments in the vehicle, but rather to sweeten the cabin and support drinking bottles. BYD claims that this accessory makes the appearance of the door area simpler and more flexible.
“So the rubber on the doors is actually intended to add to the aesthetics of the vehicle. There is no special function. If you use plastic on the door trim it takes up space, that’s why it’s made like that,” said Head of Product PT BYD Motor Indonesia, Bobby Bharata when met in Bandung, West Java.

He confirmed that if the ‘guitar string’ on the door of the BYD Atto 3 and Dolphin electric car breaks, the owner can replace it at the nearest official dealer. However, he did not elaborate further on the replacement costs.
Apart from ‘guitar strings’, there is another unique feature in the BYD electric car that other products in its class don’t have, namely the presence of Near Field Communication or NFC key function to open the vehicle door.
The car owner just needs to attach the NFC card to the receiver in the right rear view mirror, and the door will automatically open. This feature is similar to a Tesla electric car.
