Chinese auto companies like Warren Buffett-backed BYD are making trouble for Tesla in its most important market.
The automaker will sell electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles via the upscale Liverpool department store.
Initially, BYD reported a marginal rise in sales from October, with 301,903 NEVs sold in November. Interestingly, this number includes sales from their recently launched four-wheel-drive vehicles, which are expected to make a more significant impact in 2024.
Since its proper launch with the Atto 3 late last year, BYD has maintained a slick EV-only image, but its plan to add plug-in hybrids seems like a step backward, and a distraction which won't help it in the long term.
BYD's breakneck expansion is making things complicated for its puzzling naming conventions, with the brand saying the Sea Lion mid-size SUV and Seal sedan will each spawn entire model lines.
