Do you remember BYD's annual sales target at the beginning of 2023?
At the investor communication at the end of March 2023, Mr. Wang Chuanfu, President of BYD, said: BYD's sales target this year is to start with 3 million units!
At the end of 2023, BYD's total sales in 23 years were fixed on the data of 3024417 vehicles, setting a new sales record in the Chinese auto market, and exceeding the sales target of 300W.
This number represents that BYD in 2023 is not only the sales champion of brands/car companies/groups in the Chinese auto market, but also the sales champion of the world's new energy vehicle market!
This is also since Volkswagen entered the Chinese market in 1984 and established a joint venture car company, domestic cars have finally won back the sales championship of the domestic auto market.
To put it simply: the domestic automobile market pattern has undergone major changes, and BYD has become a giant of domestic car companies!
This is thanks to BYD's efforts for more than 20 years, the results are very remarkable, with an annual sales volume of 302W for the Chinese auto market to open a good start of a domestic new energy trend, but also to announce itself officially become a domestic car giant!
In the first half of 2023, BYD became the first Chinese brand in the Chinese auto industry to enter the top 10 in world sales in 70 years, and surpassed Suzuki Group to rank ninth in global sales at the end of the year.
Looking at BYD's annual car sales performance in the past three years, we can be surprised to find that this is a process that is leaping forward, from 74W annual sales in 2021, to 186W annual sales in 2022, and then to 302W annual sales in 2023, BYD is the only car company in China and even the world that still maintains rapid growth in the case of high sales!
This is a miracle created by BYD, and it is also a miracle of domestic automobile market sales created by domestic new energy vehicle companies!
But I believe this is just the starting point, with BYD's current sales growth, its global sales ranking still has a lot of opportunities for improvement.
In addition, BYD's multi-brand matrix development and overseas plan are also gradually unfolding, and BYD is also accelerating its comprehensive and high-quality development.
Its three new brands have developed in a gratifying form and have made outstanding achievements.
High-end brand look-up: Looking up to the U8's good results of 1,593 units in the first month, it refreshed the monthly sales record of its own brand million-level cars, representing the official entry of domestic cars into the top 10 million-level car sales, competing with foreign brands.
Professional personalized brand Formula Leopard: Formula Leopard Leopard 5 sold 5,086 units in the first month, changing the pattern of the domestic hard-core off-road market and opening a new hard-core off-road route with hybrid!
Luxury brand DENZA : The DENZA D9 has won the 2023 MPV sales championship in the Chinese market, redefining the new luxury MPV category standard. The excellent intelligent driving ability of DENZA N7 is among the first echelon of intelligence in the industry.
Basic plate (Dynasty and Ocean series brands): In 2023, the average monthly sales of BYD Han will be nearly 20,000 units, the average monthly sales of BYD Tang will exceed 10,000 units, and the cumulative sales of Han and Tang dual flagships will exceed one million, setting a new benchmark for the mainstream mid-to-high-end market.
BYD's overseas exports exceeded 240,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 334%, and achieved excellent results in Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Americas.
In Thailand, Singapore, Colombia, Costa Rica and other countries, the Group successfully won the cumulative sales championship from January to November this year; in Brazil, the largest market in the American theater, the Group won the overall new energy sales championship for five consecutive months, with a monthly pure electric market share of 65.6%, and continued to break local sales records; in Malta, a new market in the European theater, the Yuan PLUS won the sales championship of all models in the second month of its launch.
BYD's rapid development is visible to the naked eye, and when we look back on the past many years later, we can also proudly say to our children and grandchildren: "I have been fortunate to witness the arrival of the era of domestic automobile prosperity"!
