BYD Voice Commands: control car functions by voice with BYD Assistant

BYD Assistant is BYD's voice user interface on BYD Seal, Atto 3, Dolphin and other BYD electric cars. With BYD Assistant, you can control dozens of functions with voice - without touching the screen or having to navigate your way through the menus. Voice commands make it easier to keep the full attention on the traffic. In this video I review the BYD Assistant functionality and share my view on its potential as well as areas for improvement.

If you are interested in the background music of this video, and the soundtrack of my other videos, you can find them here:

I have a BYD in China, and one day I had a whim to make the co-pilot's girlfriend happy, so I said to the voice assistant "eject the co-pilot", but I didn't expect it to open the sunroof. At that moment, I was shocked and laughed wildly with my girlfriend

One of the fun commands I stumbled across was "Hi BYD....My bum is hot" "OK....Turning on Seat Ventilation"😊

And thank you for your tutorial. Surely will help me with my new ATTO 3.

Most car reviewers complain about lack of physical buttons. Almost none of them have a clue of modern voice assistants. I for one prefer use voice assistants, with a button on the steering wheel, over reaching to buttons.

Dude, your videos are over the top! I love it.

Great video, I hate voice controls with a passion, but they can be useful when driving for GPS navigation

I love the intro song!! Where can I get the full version?

Hi, I liked very much your video.
It was very fun that humour about mother-in-law.

I would like to ask you something about the colour of the car, if I may.

Do you have or do know any link of a video showing the combination of the exterior "Atlantis Grey" colour with the interior "Ice Blue" colour?

I'm curious to see how does it blend together.

In my country, except the "Ice Blue" which is standard, all the other exterior colours like "Atlantis Grey", "Polar White", "Space Black", "Indigo Grey" and the "Shadow Green" have an extra cost, which I find hard to understand since in some countries most of them came from standard among with the "Ice Blue",

By the way, which version of the software is your's infortainment car?

Thank you, keep posting.

All the best.

Also trying to trying to add a custom wallpaper and can only get the ones provided by BYD, is there a walkthrough on how to do this?

[vasil]

Thanks for a great video. Fortunately, I like my mother in law, so wont need the ejector seat command 😉

Hi does your nfc card unlock the car after its been parked and locked for over half and hour?

[jasonyannuccelli]

Is there a way to change the “Hi BYD” to…. “Name of my choice” ?
Thank you

You put chat GP in these cars and we will be having conversations on the way to places. Cars will communicate with each other maybe a BYD twenty miles ahead telling your car there has been a accident, heavy rain, traffic jam, debris on the road. It still looks very basic but the fact it understands what your saying is impressive.

But let’s never forget by the time you have said the command you’d have done it with a knob or button within seconds.

Regarding steering wheel heating - you can just say “my hands are cold”. As well as you can say “my ass is cold” for seat heating.

[lokeshmarkundhi]

so, the new BYD atto 3 (2024) has seat ventilation???

[JerryEBernard]

Hi there, I like your opening song. May I know the title 😂😂😂

[风筝-fe]

Next time, please try these, "Hi BYD....open the airbag"，"Hi BYD....open seat ejection"，"Hi BYD....open the battery self destruct program" 😜

[gioratamir]

Why a clip like this is filmd at night?

[eclockren]

Good news and bad news: the voice control of BYD is relatively worse among Chinese EV makers. For example, Xpeng has far better voice control than this, you don't even need to say the activate prompt and the car will detect the meaningful command automatically.
