How the scheme operates
Through BYD Motability UK, eligible individuals exchange their qualifying mobility allowance for a lease on a new car. We do not publish monthly prices, Advance Payment figures, or detailed eligibility rules. To find out if fully electric models like the Atto 3 EVO or plug-in hybrids are available, you must check the official Motability website and consult a Motability specialist at an authorised BYD dealer.
Vehicle maintenance
The scheme includes maintenance, but you must still follow the guidelines in the owner’s manual. The Motability organisation will direct you to a qualified workshop or an authorised BYD service centre for all routine servicing and repairs. Taking the car to an approved service centre ensures that any specialised equipment or high-voltage components are handled correctly.

Are there adaptations available?
Adaptations can be fitted to a Motability car. You must check with an authorised BYD dealer and the Motability scheme to confirm which adaptations are permitted on the specific model you choose.
Can I test drive a Motability car?
Yes, it is highly recommended to book a test drive with an authorised BYD dealer to ensure the vehicle meets your specific requirements before placing an order.

At the end of the lease, you return the vehicle to the dealer. You may then choose to lease a new vehicle if you remain eligible for the scheme. Always consult the official Motability scheme website for complete details on end-of-lease processes.
