BYD has met its 2025 electric vehicle sales target and is on track to surpass Tesla as the world's largest pure battery electric vehicle (BEV) maker for the full year, according to reports from Nikkei Asia and Bloomberg.

The new BYD Yangwang U7 features a massive 150 kWh battery that allows the luxury electric sedan to travel over {{1,000 km}} on a single charge.

In 2025, Chinese EV giant BYD sold a record 4.6 million vehicles, up 7.7% year-over-year, meeting its revised target and likely surpassing Tesla globally despite a cooling domestic market and price wars. The company expanded internationally and innovated with fast-charging tech. This resilience positions BYD for continued growth amid challenges.
