The Warren Buffett–backed automaker maintained its leadership with 347,000 new energy vehicle sales and a 26.7% market share, while Tesla remained fifth.

China’s largest automaker BYD is apparently favoring Spain as the top candidate for its third European car factory, joining planned plants in Hungary and TurkeyThe move would strengthen BYD’s presence in Europe, intensify its rivalry with Tesla, and support Spain’s ambitions to become a major electric vehicle hub, Reuters&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/china/spain-frontrunner-chinese-carmaker-byds-third-european-plant-sources-say-2025-10-14/">reported</a>, citing two people familiar with the matter.Spain is reportedly attractive due to its low manufacturing costs and clean energy network, though the final decision, expected by year-end, still requires Chinese regulatory approval. BYD has also considered Germany, but high labor and energy costs have been points of concern.BYD’s country manager for Spain and Portugal, Alberto De Aza, previously said Spain offered an ideal base for expansion thanks to its industrial infrastructure and cheap electricity. The company and Spain’s Industry Ministry declined to comment.BYD's European sales soared 280% in the first eight months of 2025 after&nbsp;the company expanded its range of plug-in hybrids and full EVs. The automaker has also overhauled its regional operations, bringing on managers and dealers to speed up growth.The move could also deepen ties between Spain and China, which have already grown as Spain abstained from an EU vote on tariffs on Chinese-made EVs. Spain has already welcomed big bets on EVs from Volkswagen, Chery and CATL through a €5 billion incentive program that was rolled out in 2020.BYD aims to build all cars sold in Europe locally within three years to avoid tariffs. Its Hungary plant is under construction, with mass production delayed until next year, while the Turkey plant is expected to open in 2026.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for BYD was ‘bullish’ amid ‘normal’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has risen 21% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

BYD is preparing to bring its Shark hybrid pickup truck to the Chinese market after launching it across several global regions.&nbsp;BYD’s general manager of brand and public relations, Li Yunfei, confirmed on Weibo that the domestic launch is “in the planning stages” and will happen “sooner or later.” Li, currently in Mexico, shared images of the Shark displayed in a local showroom, according to a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/10/09/byd-to-launch-shark-pickup-in-china/">report</a> by CnEVPost.The model first debuted in Mexico on May 14, 2024, marking a rare instance where BYD unveiled a new vehicle abroad before releasing it in China.The Shark, BYD’s first-ever pickup model, was introduced overseas earlier in 2024, just months after Tesla began deliveries of its fully electric Cybertruck in the U.S. The decision to prioritize international markets reflects China’s restrictive urban policies toward pickup trucks, which have historically limited the category's growth.&nbsp;According to the China Passenger Car Association, pickup sales in China rose 7% year-on-year to 369,000 units between January and August 2025, while new energy pickup sales soared 536% to 49,000 units. For comparison, overall new energy vehicle retail sales reached 8.8 million units during the same period, representing a 23.4% increase.The Shark is derived from BYD's DMO (Dual Mode Off-Road) platform, a plug-in hybrid powertrain featuring two electric motors with a combined system output of over 430 horsepower. It achieves a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 5.7 seconds and&nbsp;a top speed of 160 km/h.&nbsp;BYD is entering the global pickup market with the Shark, a segment currently dominated by other models. It competes with the Toyota Hilux and the Tesla Cybertruck.&nbsp;While Tesla’s pickup remains exclusive to the U.S., BYD’s approach focuses on emerging and established markets outside America. So far, the Shark has launched in Mexico, Brazil, Panama, Cambodia, Australia, and Pakistan, with 11,038 units exported from China in 2024.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for BYD was ‘neutral’ amid ‘low’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s stock</a> has risen 26% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

The EB8 can travel up to 290 km carrying 60 passengers, while the larger EB12 can cover 400 km with 90 passengers. Both buses can fully charge in about three hours, according to a Nikkei&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://asia.nikkei.com/business/automobiles/electric-vehicles/vinfast-debuts-electric-buses-in-europe-first-outside-vietnam">report</a>.The move comes as VinFast works to expand internationally after facing slower traction in North America and Europe. The company, founded by Vietnam’s richest man, Pham Nhat Vuong, already operates hundreds of e-buses domestically and views the European market as a means to enhance brand visibility and establish consumer trust in its electric technology.Chair Le Thi Thu Thuy unveiled the buses at the Busworld Europe expo in Brussels, calling the debut a reflection of VinFast’s mission to “democratize electric mobility.” The company plans to offer the models in Central and Eastern Europe and the Baltics, where it will compete with established players like China’s Yutong, Germany’s MAN and Mercedes, and China’s BYD.The&nbsp;European debut&nbsp;comes months after VinFast&nbsp;decided to cut&nbsp;prices on 11 of its EV models to make its vehicles more affordable and support its goal of doubling sales in 2025. The company also ended its EV battery rental program to further lower upfront costs for buyers.In the first six months of 2025, VinFast sold 72,167 EVs, marking an increase of 223% year-on-year, along with 114,484 e-scooters and e-bikes, up 447%. The company is also turning its attention to India and Southeast Asia, where EV uptake is growing quickly, and lower prices are crucial for continued growth.VinFast’s U.S.-listed stock has declined 18% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

BYD expects exports to account for approximately 20% of its total sales this year, thanks to strong overseas demand, improved logistics, and a steady rollout of new models.Li said BYD plans to ship between 800,000 and 1 million vehicles abroad in 2025, out of an expected 4.6 million total sales, up from less than 10% of 4.26 million deliveries in 2024 coming from overseas markets, South China Morning Post&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.scmp.com/business/china-business/article/3327153/chinas-ev-king-byd-builds-export-momentum-expects-sales-abroad-top-20-year?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=section">reported</a>, citing Li Yunfei, the company’s general manager of branding and public relations.The company’s growing fleet of eight car-carrying ships, including one that can transport more than 9,000 vehicles, has made it easier to move cars to key markets such as Europe and Southeast Asia.&nbsp;Li said BYD also plans to launch all of its China-developed cars overseas, double its European showrooms to 2,000 by 2026, and begin production at its new Hungary plant early next year. The automaker already runs factories in Thailand and Brazil.BYD’s overseas sales jumped 145% in the second quarter of 2025 to 258,182 units, making up about 22% of total deliveries.Led by billionaire Wang Chuanfu, BYD is one of the few Chinese EV makers in black, as more than 50 battle for market share. Li said the government’s recent crackdown on aggressive discounting is helping the market stabilize, and that clearer long-term policies will help guide the next stage of industry growth.To promote EV adoption, BYD recently opened an off-road circuit in Zhengzhou, complete with driving experience zones and test tracks.&nbsp;While BYD’s global presence continues to strengthen, the company has faced&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/byd-tries-deep-discounts-to-boost-japan-sales-analyst-says-hard-to-beat-toyota-nissan-and-honda/chDMZ6mR37R">headwinds in Japan</a>, where&nbsp;it is offering discounts of up to 1 million yen ($6,700) to boost sales.&nbsp;The automaker has sold only 5,300 vehicles in Japan from January 2023 through June 2025, in part due to competition from the nation's top three automakers, including Toyota, Nissan and Honda, which have built strong positions in the hybrid segment.&nbsp;On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for BYD was ‘neutral’ amid ‘low’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has risen 22% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

BYD Bets On Exports To Drive Growth — Plans 1M Overseas Shipments, Doubling European Showrooms By 2026

The company is also preparing to start production at its new Hungary plant early next year as part of its broader international expansion.

More than two years after entering the Japanese market, BYD is still struggling to attract buyers. The Chinese EV maker sold just 5,300 vehicles between January 2023 and June 2025, despite opening 45 dealerships, introducing new models, and planning a kei car launch for 2026.The company has turned to discounts of up to 1 million yen ($6,700), effectively cutting prices by as much as 50% when combined with subsidies to boost demand, according to a Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-28/byd-brings-price-war-to-japan-in-bid-to-win-over-customers">report</a>.&nbsp;Its Atto 3 SUV retails for just under 4.2 million yen. However, Bloomberg Intelligence senior auto analyst Tatsuo Yoshida said BYD’s discounting strategy could easily backfire in Japan, where carmakers almost never cut prices. He added that the move could frustrate early adopters who paid more, and may also lower the cars' resale value.According to Yoshida, BYD’s struggle highlights how difficult it is for overseas automakers to win over Japanese drivers, who still prefer hybrids and tend to stick with familiar brands like Toyota, Nissan, and Honda. He pointed out that General Motors quit the Saturn brand after weak sales, while Hyundai is only now trying again after pulling out more than a decade ago.BYD sold 512 vehicles in June, less than half of Nissan’s Sakura, Japan’s top-selling EV, pointing to a level Yoshida said may not even cover operating costs. Meanwhile, local makers are expanding their electric lineups: Honda launched its first compact EV this month, while Toyota and Suzuki plan to roll out a kei EV later this year.Despite the weak sales, analysts see long-term value in staying in Japan, where EVs are projected to represent just 3.4% of new car sales in 2025, according to BloombergNEF. “Winning Japan isn’t the point; leaving a mark is,” Yoshida said, adding that BYD aims to earn credibility with Japan’s highly discerning customers even if it’s not profitable in the near term.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for BYD was ‘neutral’ amid ‘low’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BYDDF">BYD’s U.S.-listed stock</a> has risen 22% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
