After some recent contributions from Larry Evans and big news coming from BYD itself, I started digging into BYD’s monthly production and sales reports. The big business is the passenger vehicle business. However, BYD also reports production and sales of its buses (electric) and production and sales of its other … [continued]

While many of us were focused on the election, BYD announced that the YangWang U9 went 391.94 km/h (243 mph). Auto-translate under subtitles helps. This was not a one-off.
