BYD Global

BYD will build an NEV production facility in the Hungarian city of Szeged, which will be constructed in phases and is expected to create thousands of local jobs.

BYD plans to build a new factory to produce EVs and batteries in Szeged, southern Hungary, according to the Financial Times.

The Dolphin was the top-selling all-electric vehicle in Thailand in November with 2,825 units sold, followed by the Atto 3 in 2nd place with 1,142 units sold, BYD said.

The Atto 3 -- BYD's first global model -- continues to sell well in regions including Thailand, Singapore, New Zealand, and Brazil, the company previously said.

In addition to the Atto 3, Dolphin and Seal, BYD said it will launch a number of competitive NEV models in global markets.

BYD has become the first Chinese automaker to participate in the Tokyo auto show, with the ultra-luxury Yangwang U8 making its overseas debut and demonstrating its tank turn feature.

BYD has entered 19 European countries since announcing its entry into the European passenger car market at the Paris auto show in 2022.

The Dolphin and Seal will be available immediately at BYD stores, while the Atto 3, Han, and Tang have previously been available to Finnish customers.

The Seal is BYD's third model to be launched in Macau after the Atto 3 and Dolphin.

BYD sold a record 28,039 NEVs in overseas markets in September, up 12.05 percent from August.
