The BYD Atto 1 is rated 310 km on the WLTP cycle, the Geely EX2 345. Every figure below names the badge it belongs to, and the three tools further down turn the same numbers into a charging race, a road trip and a yearly bill.

The short answer
The Geely EX2 goes further on a charge.
1
The Geely EX2 is rated 345 km against 310 — 35 km, 11% further. It uses 14.4 kWh to cover 100 km where the Geely EX2 needs 15.5.
2
The Geely EX2 lists 375 L of luggage space against 230 L.
3
The running-cost figures use the directory's median tariff of A$0.50 per kWh; a home tariff is often cheaper, and session fees, idle fees and parking are not in them.
Which one, in one line
Pick the Geely EX2 ifit wins on range (345 km against 310), space (375 L of boot against 230 L).
The priceThe BYD Atto 1 is the cheaper to buy, listed from A$23,990; both are list prices before on-road costs and incentives.

Charging, raced
Two cars, one post, same clock
Charging speed is a station number and a car number, and the smaller one wins. Set the post and both cars fill against the same clock — the interesting part is not who wins, it is how much of the gap a slow post takes away.
Each car is modelled on its own published 10–80% time, which gives an average power over that window. A post above that average changes nothing; a post below it sets the pace.

One of these cars has no published charging time, so there is no race to run.
Every figure
The numbers, with the badge attached
A tick marks a figure that is simply more useful — more range, less energy per 100 km, a faster stop. Rows without a tick are different, not better: a bigger battery, a taller body and a heavier car are all trades, and this page does not pretend otherwise.

How to read the mixed rows. Range, efficiency, battery and charging come from one badge — the longest-range version of each car's current model year, not the longest range it has ever been rated at. The catalogue stores one record per badge, so where two figures come from different badges the row names the one it used.
What WLTP is not. It is a laboratory cycle at a fixed temperature, with the air conditioning off and a gentle acceleration profile. It exists so two cars can be compared on the same test, not so a driver can predict a highway run. Expect less on a 110 km/h trip, and less again in winter.
What this page does not claim. No ANCAP crash rating: the catalogue carries none, and a column of dashes would read like a failure rather than a gap. Prices are manufacturer list before on-road costs; the drive-away band appears only where the feed publishes one.
Your numbers
What this pair costs you, on your drive
Two questions decide most purchases: how often you stop, and what the year costs. Both are arithmetic on the figures above, so change the inputs and the answer changes with you.
The drive
Starts full, arrives at 10%, charges back to 80% at each stop, and assumes a highway range of 85% of the WLTP figure.

The year
Energy at the wheels from the WLTP label, priced at the tariff you pay. Home charging is usually cheaper than the directory's median.

The trip model ignores charger detours, queueing and the last 10% of the pack, which is slow on both cars. The yearly cost is energy only: no session fees, no idle fees, no home-charger installation, and no petrol car to compare against.
Your priorities
A verdict you can argue with
There is no single winner, only a winner for a set of priorities. Move the sliders and the weighting changes — nothing here is a magazine score, and the page never hides the numbers it is built from.
Weighted result

wins 3 of 5 measures on these weights
BYD Atto 143%
Geely EX257%
Each measure is scaled between the two cars, so a weight of 5 means “this is the thing I care about” and 0 means “I do not care at all”. The scores are relative, not a rating out of ten.
Questions
Short answers, then the reasoning
Every figure here comes from the same data as the rest of the page. Where the data cannot answer, the page says so instead of guessing.
Still unsure about a term? The connector guide covers the plugs, and the vehicle guide the rest.
Which has more range, the BYD Atto 1 or the Geely EX2?
The Geely EX2. The BYD Atto 1 is rated 310 km and the Geely EX2 345, each on the longest-range badge of its current model year — MY26 Premium and MY26 Inspire respectively. WLTP is a laboratory cycle run at a fixed temperature with the air conditioning off, so treat the figure as a way to compare one car with another rather than a prediction for a highway run in summer.
Which charges faster?
At least one of the two has no published 10–80% time, so the charging comparison is limited to the peak rates in the table.
Do they use the same plug?
Yes. Both list CCS2 for DC fast charging, so either car can use the same sites without an adapter. An adapter still cannot raise the power a car will accept.
Which is cheaper to run?
The BYD Atto 1, by about A$82.50 a year at 15,000 km and A$0.50 per kWh. It uses 14.4 kWh per 100 km against 15.5. That is energy only, at the wheels: session fees, idle fees and home-charger installation are not in it.
Which has more space?
The Geely EX2: 230 L of luggage space against 375 L. Makers measure boot volume by different conventions — some to the window line, some under the parcel shelf — so read the direction as reliable and the size of the gap as indicative.
Which is cheaper to buy?
The BYD Atto 1 is the cheaper of the two, listed from A$23,990 against A$26,490 for the Geely EX2 — A$2,500 between the two starting prices. Both are manufacturer list prices before on-road costs, options and any incentive, so a dealer's drive-away number will differ.
