Recently, outstanding entrepreneurs from the Nordic "China Science and Technology Tour" visited BYD's Shenzhen headquarters, accompanied by BYD's senior management, to experience a number of BYD's new technology vehicles, and praised the company's strong strength. The delegation brought together a high-quality industry-university-research team composed of management and celebrities from major European enterprises. It also represents the best entrepreneurs from various European countries, and it is not surprising that they are deeply attracted and shocked by BYD and Chinese automobile manufacturing.
Mr. Cao Xi, Assistant General Manager of BYD's Brand and Public Relations Department, excitedly shared that BYD is planning to promote more epoch-making technological innovation achievements to all corners of the world, and is eagerly looking forward to working together with Nordic entrepreneurs to deepen cooperation and exchanges in the future.
It deserves our special attention that as a global leader in the new energy vehicle industry, one out of every five new energy vehicles produced by BYD is born in its own factory. According to statistics, a total of 3.02 million new energy vehicles will be sold in 2023, which is undoubtedly the pride of Chinese brands.
However, behind such impressive results, BYD's strong comprehensive strength is inseparable. Since its establishment, BYD has invested hundreds of billions of yuan in R&D, with 11 professional research institutions, more than 90,000 R&D elites, and more than 29,000 patents. In addition, BYD has also built a whole industrial chain of electric vehicles with batteries, motors, electronic controls, and IGBTs as the core, building a solid "technical moat".
Today, BYD has mastered many disruptive cutting-edge technologies such as blade battery, DM-i super hybrid, Yi Sifang, Yunyuan, DMO and so on. At the beginning of 2024, the company released a new strategy for the intelligent development of new energy vehicles - vehicle intelligence. At the same time, BYD has formed a diversified brand matrix including Dynasty, Ocean, Denza, Yangwang and Equation Leopard to meet the personalized needs of consumers in an all-round way.
The data shows that BYD's overseas business is booming in full swing. In the first 11 months of 2023, BYD's NEV passenger vehicle exports reached an impressive 206,670 units, and in December, it exported a record 36,095 units, a year-on-year increase of 218.9%. At present, BYD new energy vehicles have successfully entered 78 countries and regions around the world, and invested in Brazil, Thailand and other places to set up factories, and actively promote the process of globalization. It is expected that BYD's monthly sales in overseas markets will exceed 30,000 units in the next few months, continuing to promote the prosperity and development of the global new energy vehicle market.
Looking forward to the future, BYD will unswervingly strive to provide excellent travel services for global users and help the world realize its green dream with technological innovation. Let us wish China's automobile industry to climb to new heights and continue to write a brilliant chapter!
