BYD Korea hits 10,000 EV sales in 11 months, claims 5.8% market share

BYD Korea has delivered 10,075 vehicles by the end of March, surpassing 10,000 deliveries in 11 months since first customer deliveries began on 14 April 2025. The company expanded from 15 showrooms and 11 service centres at launch to 32 showrooms and 17 service centres, with plans to reach 35 showrooms and 26 service centres by the end of 2026. BYD ranked fourth in South Korea's electric vehicle market through February 2026 with a 5.8% share, behind Kia's 42.1% and Tesla's 25.8%. Price competition is intensifying, with Tesla's Model 3 Standard RWD dropping to 42 million won (US$28,000), and subsidies pushing effective prices to around 30 million won (US$20,000). Hyundai and Kia currently account for 68.5% of total vehicle sales in South Korea.

BYD beats Tesla in Europe for second month as Chinese car imports to EU jump 31%

Chinese car imports to the European Union surged 31% last year, exceeding 1 million units for the first time, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association. BYD registered 17,954 vehicles in Europe in February, surpassing Tesla's 17,664 for the second consecutive month. Chinese automakers are establishing local production facilities across Europe. BYD plans to manufacture every European model locally by 2028, with factories under construction in Hungary and Turkey. Great Wall Motor is preparing its first full-vehicle European plant targeting 300,000 units annually by 2029. The EU is considering additional tariffs that could raise total duties on some Chinese electric vehicles to 38.1%, following findings of unfair subsidies. However, Volkswagen and Germany's transport minister oppose the measures, warning they could harm European manufacturers.

BYD's Denza Z9 GT priced at $134K in Europe vs $39K in China — tariffs explain only part of the gap

BYD's Denza Z9 GT electric shooting brake costs around $39,300 in China but sells for approximately $134,500 in Europe — more than triple the price. Whilst EU tariffs on Chinese EVs add 27 per cent to costs, this accounts for only about $10,500 of the difference. The pricing gap reflects deliberate positioning rather than import duties alone, according to S&P Global Mobility. BYD is targeting the premium European market, pricing the 1,140-horsepower vehicle just below the Porsche Panamera. The strategy leverages BYD's 25 per cent manufacturing cost advantage whilst funding European infrastructure, retail expansion and premium marketing, including a Daniel Craig campaign. The approach acknowledges the difficulty foreign brands face establishing prestige in Europe's conservative six-figure car market.

BYD partners with KFC to cut EV charging time to nine minutes with drive-thru stations

BYD, the world's largest plug-in EV manufacturer, has partnered with KFC to create nine-minute drive-thru charging stations across China. The initiative allows drivers to recharge their vehicles whilst ordering food, addressing one of the main barriers to EV adoption: charging wait times. The collaboration includes a smart ordering system enabling drivers to place KFC orders directly from their vehicle's dashboard. The system can also guide users to nearby drive-thru charging locations along their route. BYD's second-generation Blade battery technology enables vehicles to reach 97% charge in approximately nine minutes, making the charging experience comparable to traditional petrol station stops. The company, founded as a battery maker, now generates over 80% of its revenue from automotive operations and sold three million vehicles in 2023.
