-1%BYD (BYDDY), the world's largest electric vehicle maker by sales, has seen its stock fall 31% in the past 52 weeks. Price wars, supply-chain problems, global economic pressure, and weak sales in China have weighed on it. Exports are offsetting the slump. In the first half of 2026, BYD shipped 792,000 units abroad, up 67.8% year on year, and it expects overseas shipments to exceed 2.5 million units in 2027. Gross profit margin rose 84 basis points to 18.85%. Investor Michael Burry has added BYD shares to his portfolio, citing its cost advantage from controlling more of its supply chain. Of 14 analysts, eight rate the stock "Strong Buy." The mean price target of $18 implies a 92% upside.
Chinese car makers increasingly rely on overseas markets as September exports surge. October 13, 2026 | 04:39 IST AI Summary Chinese passenger car exports surged 64% in September as automakers increasingly rely on overseas markets to offset sluggish domestic sales, despite facing rising global tariffs and geopolitical challenges. China's passenger car exports surged 64% in September from the same month in 2025, an industry association reported Monday, October 12, as Chinese automakers increasingly focus on exports to drive growth at a time of sluggish domestic sales. China exported around 919,000 passenger vehicles in September, lifted by overseas demand for plug-in hybrids and pure electric vehicles, data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers showed. In the first nine months of 2026, China exported more than passenger cars, up more than 70% compared with the same period last year. Meanwhile, domestic passenger car sales in China have fallen for most of the year as they face weaker consumer confidence at home and scaled back government subsidies. They declined 27% in September year-on-year to over 1.6 million units, according to the association. In recent months, Chinese automakers have more aggressively targeted rapid growth in overseas markets such as Europe, Latin America, Southeast Asia and Africa. Canada is also opening its doors to Chinese EV exports under a tariff cut deal with China. The industry is increasingly relying on overseas markets for sales and profit growth as players seek to offset the weakness in the domestic market, said analyst Stephen Chan with S&P Global Ratings. Consultancy AlixPartners and some auto analysts have expected Chinese automakers to export nearly or around 10 million vehicles globally in 2026. In Europe, Chinese automakers are increasingly challenging the European auto industry with cheaper costs and prices. AlixPartners' analysis found, for example, that a Chinese-branded EV costs around $20,000 to produce, compared with roughly $31,000 for an European equivalent. The EU has already imposed elevated tariffs on Chinese EVs. Recent discussions among policymakers on Chinese car exports to Europe focused also on the rapidly rising sales of Chinese hybrid vehicles. As pressure on the EU to rebalance trade with China grows, EU trade chief Maroš Šefcovic said Friday that China and the EU reached an interim deal that could cut Chinese hybrid vehicle exports by around half. Analysts said protectionist measures will likely continue to cloud Chinese automakers' overseas outlook. "You can't expect BYD or the other OEMs (manufacturers) to export too many cars without facing tariffs or pushbacks from the foreign governments," Xiao Feng, head of the Hong Kong and China Industrials Research at investment group CITIC CLSA, told reporters recently. Geopolitics is the biggest challenge in its overseas expansion, Stella Li, executive vice president at Chinese EV giant BYD who drives the car maker's global growth, acknowledged at an event this month. As a result, BYD has been expanding its capacity to make cars locally in overseas markets including setting up manufacturing plants in Thailand, Indonesia, Brazil and Hungary, she told the Milken Institute Asia Summit in Singapore. Chinese automakers will likely continue to increase production overseas to help avoid risks such as tariffs, said Ming Lee, head of Greater China automotive and industrial research at BofA Global Research of Bank of America. "More and more volume will be made locally," he said. The US, meanwhile, has effectively barred Chinese EVs from entering its market with hefty tariffs. US President Donald Trump's meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping during his state visit to Washington in September did not result in a deal on allowing Chinese EV exports to the US, and experts say the US market is probably not on top of the agenda of Chinese automakers due to ongoing political uncertainties.
BYD plans to employ more than 40,000 people in Europe by 2030, which would make it one of the region's largest non-European automotive employers, according to Bloomberg. Stella Li, executive vice president overseeing BYD's overseas operations, said at the Paris Motor Show that the headcount would be "absolutely over 40,000 in 2030." She said the company will soon pass 10,000 employees in the region and will recruit from the auto sector and related industries, including laid-off workers. BYD plans more European factories after its Szeged, Hungary plant starts mass production, targeted for the fourth quarter. France and Spain are on the shortlist. Li said BYD cannot yet judge how the new China-EU deal, which limits hybrid vehicle shipments into the bloc, will affect it.
BYD plans hiring spree to bolster European workforce to 40,000. The Chinese automotive giant is seeking to evolve from a simple exporter to a major car producer in the region Published Mon, Oct 12, 2026 · 08:30 PM * Stella Li, executive vice-president of BYD, speaking at a press conference during the 2026 Paris Auto Show in Paris on Monday. PHOTO: REUTERS [PARIS] BYD said that it's planning to go on a hiring spree in Europe and increase its workforce there to about 40,000 people by the end of the decade as the Chinese automotive giant seeks to evolve from a simple exporter to a major car producer in the region. "BYD's commitment in Europe is very deep, and it is long term," executive vice-president Stella Li, who heads the company's overseas business, said in an interview at the Paris Motor Show with Bloomberg TV on Monday (Oct 12). Asked specifically about BYD's European employment plans, Li said separately that its workforce there would be "absolutely over 40,000 in 2030". The company will soon have more than 10,000, she added. That would make BYD one of the biggest non-European automotive employers in the region. The company, the world's largest maker of electric vehicles, is deepening its investments there as Chinese exporters face increasing scrutiny from European authorities. BYD plans to recruit from the auto industry and beyond, including workers potentially laid off by European companies, she informed. Talks between China and the EU last week ended with a broad agreement that included curbs on the number of hybrid vehicles that would be imported from the Asian country. BYD is still assessing the implications of the EU's new restrictions as the company didn't yet have sufficient details, Li said. The business times turns 50.

Explore BT50" Meanwhile, the Shenzhen-based company is in the final stages of preparations for its first European factory, located in Hungary, aiming for mass production to begin in the fourth quarter, she noted. Then the company will probably build its next couple of factories elsewhere in the region, with France and Spain being on the shortlist, Li added.

China wants more - and bigger - car-carriers to meet export demand. 12 October 2026 China's shipowners and carmakers are making a concerted push to grow their car-carrier fleets as exports increase. Cosco Shipping Specialized Carriers, carmaker BYD, and SAIC Anji Logistics plan to jointly invest around $2.5bn to build 21 11,000 ceu car-carriers in compatriot shipyards. Cosco Shipping is ordering up to 11 of the vessels, BYD is planning eight, and SAIC Anji, two. Xiamen Shipbuilding and Guangzhou Shipyard International (GSI) are reportedly Cosco's choice to build its vessels. SAIC Anji has issued a tender, inviting international shipbuilders to submit quotes. The tender document, launched on 23 September, states that the shipbuilders must have completed at least ten LNG dual-fuelled car carriers with capacity of at least 7,000 ceu between 1 January 2023 and 31 August 2026. Based on Clarksons' data, only China Merchants Heavy Industry (Jiangsu), GSI, China Merchants Jinling and Yantai CIMC Raffles meet the criteria. Car-carriers exceeding 10,000 ceu remain in the minority, and the Chinese push shows an intent to reduce the per-vehicle cost of transport. If the newbuilding orders are signed by year-end, it would mean more than 100 have been ordered this year, a record. The current orderbook is 26.7% of the active fleet. Hyundai Glovis, the carmaker's shipping unit, is operating four of a total of 20 10,800 ceu vessels, the other 16 still under construction. Wallenius Wilhelmsen, the world's largest car-carrier operator, is building seven 12,100 ceu ships at China Merchants Jinling, for delivery between 2027 and 2028. Meanwhile, Ningbo Ocean Shipping (NBOSCO), Ningbo-Zhoushan Port Group's liner subsidiary, plans to charter two 7,000 ceu LNG dual-fuelled car-carriers. It said in a Shanghai Stock Exchange filing on 8 October it would pay up to $480m to lease the two ships for 20 years. Details of where the ships would be built, and their delivery dates, were not disclosed. The carrier entered the car-shipping business in August, after chartering the 7,000 ceu Clean Star from Atlas EMF, a joint-venture between Greek shipping company Atlas Maritime and Danish investor European Maritime Finance. Meanwhile, on Friday, following trade discussions, the EU capped annual Chinese hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) imports at 350,000 units, with an annual quota growth rate of 6%. The bloc imported around 302,000 HEVs from China last year, while the 2026 trajectory would have indicated around 800,000 prior to the deal. Fearnley Securities, however, claimed that while the EU's quota would dampen tonne-km demand for car-carriers, overall demand remains positive. Chinese monthly car exports now exceed a million, and the Norwegian brokerage estimates that car-carrying capacity is around 3m ceu short, on an annualised basis. Reduced European imports would thus, not hurt the shipping market, it said. Fearnley added: "Moreover, China could be able to push more vehicles to other jurisdictions, potentially offsetting fewer European imports. Fleet growth will be declining through 2029, before 2030 could represent an uptick in deliveries depending on contracting activity (2030 has the first available yard slots)."
