First, let's look at a set of data rankings:
In 2016, BYD sold 489,000 vehicles a year;
In 2017, BYD sold 409,000 vehicles a year;
In 2018, BYD sold 520,700 vehicles a year;
In 2019, BYD sold 451,000 vehicles a year;
In 2020, BYD will sell 420,000 vehicles a year;
In 2021, BYD will sell 730,000 vehicles a year;
As one of the few pure domestic independent research and development of large brands, BYD's position in the hearts of the Chinese people has been stable, although in the past few years of car sales changes have had some declines, such as between 2016 and 2017, sales decreased by 80,000, but the overall impact is not large, 17 years later, BYD returned to the track, a snow shame, but also added 120,000 vehicles on the original basis. By 2021, BYD's sales will break a new high and achieve leapfrog growth, with a total annual sales volume of 730,000 vehicles, an increase of 75.4% year-on-year, especially new energy passenger cars, with annual sales of 590,000 and 90,000 in a single month, once again breaking the record.
Speaking of today's domestic brands, in addition to Huawei in the field of mobile phones, DJI in the field of drones, the automotive field is undoubtedly BYD, and today's BYD is already the most representative leading enterprise of new energy in China. And mention BYD, there are many people have a certain misunderstanding of it, think that BYD is not as good as Tesla, just say sales, in 2016, BYD sold 489,000 vehicles, Tesla only sold 76,000, in 2019, BYD sold 451,000 vehicles, and Tesla has sold 368,000 vehicles, sales growth rate is very amazing.
Although the two companies are also based on new energy vehicles, there are still some differences and gaps, this part of many people blame the reason on THE STRENGTH OF THE BYD brand, but many people do not know that Tesla can achieve such results, there are two factors are very important, the first is due to the Chinese market, the original with the support of Shanghai, low labor costs, cheap land prices, so that Tesla production capacity can be rapidly improved, not only to pay off the debt, Musk also became the world's richest man.
Second, the Tesla market is different from BYD, Tesla is facing the global market, not a country in China, but most of BYD's market is still dominated by the Chinese market, supplemented by foreign markets.
On the contrary, the reason why BYD can develop so quickly in just a few years, in addition to the favorable trend of the overall industry, has a lot to do with its own development model, which is similar to Ali, not limiting itself to a certain field, but opening up multiple business lines and blossoming at multiple points. One is the Dynasty car series that has supported the sales market in terms of passenger cars, such as the Han EV exceeding 10,000 units for two consecutive months in 2021. One is Qin PLUS, the explosive model of 2021, the cumulative sales volume of the march listing exceeded 170,000 vehicles, and even the dolphin, which was newly listed in August last year, also achieved a monthly sales of more than 10,000 in the last month. It can be seen how important it is for a company to have a multi-point blossom of the subdivided model line. The second is the continuous study of its own core technology, the launch of blade battery and DM-i supermix technology represents BYD's deep ploughing breakthrough in its own business for many years, after all, in today's era, having core technology is king.
In addition, BYD was established in 1995, 26 years of time, to achieve the global six continents of the strategic layout, its business coverage is very extensive, and are self-developed, in addition to new energy vehicles and new energy market, as well as rail transit in various fields, the current revenue and total market value are more than 100 billion, now the global oil prices rise, fuel vehicles to new energy transformation has been imminent, in the future to advocate green carbon reduction under the premise, I believe BYD, will also play a unique advantage in the field of new energy, help" Cool the Earth by 1°C".
Wang Chuanfu actually sees very clearly, in fact, BYD's biggest shortcoming, not technology, but brand, to put it simply, that is, when foreigners feel that China's domestic production is no longer what it used to be, our own people still can't come up with self-confidence, which also applies to Huawei, Xiaomi... In the eyes of many of our chinese, even if domestic production has made more progress, it is not as strong as imports. Many years ago, Wang Chuanfu also said that "Chinese look down on the old problems of independent brands to change, because we have indeed changed now" So if domestic brands want to rise, we ourselves must be confident from the bones, so that Chinese brands, Chinese science and technology to the world, to achieve a real sense of the rise!
