Leading the way with 13 million new energy vehicles
Recently, at the Xiaomo Production Area within the Shenzhen–Shanwei Special Cooperation Zone, BYD marked a historic moment with the rollout of its 13 millionth new energy vehicle. The YangWang U7, a luxury electric sedan, was chosen to represent this milestone, a symbol of technological sophistication and ambition. BYD is the first automaker in the world to reach this figure, underscoring its leadership in the global shift towards electrification.

In the first half of 2025, BYD recorded impressive domestic sales, delivering more than 2.11 million vehicles in China—up 31.5 per cent year-on-year. Internationally, sales rose sharply by 128.5 per cent, with 472,000 vehicles reaching customers across the globe. These figures cement BYD’s position as the global frontrunner in NEV sales.
The milestone of 13 million vehicles is a powerful testament to consumer trust and BYD’s long-term strategy built on technological innovation and customer-centric thinking. The success of the YangWang brand, with sales exceeding 10,000 units, highlights the rising global appeal of premium Chinese automotive offerings, elevating the country’s reputation in the international industry.
The appeal of BYD Sealion 6 in the Vietnamese market
In Vietnam, BYD is also making meaningful headway. Three months after the official launch of the BYD Sealion 6 SUV on 18 April 2025 in Hanoi, BYD Vietnam has delivered its first 1,000 vehicles. This achievement not only signifies the promising debut of the first model in Vietnam to feature DM-i Super Hybrid technology but also reflects strong consumer enthusiasm for BYD’s efficient and eco-conscious vehicles.
