BYD and other Chinese automakers are driving record EV sales across the UK, reshaping the market

Bumper September sales for fast-growing Chinese car brand BYD mean the UK has become the firm’s second largest international market.

China's BYD has hit the top three in Australia's hottest vehicle segment, with the Sealion 7 electric SUV beating out household favourites.

The BYD Shark 6 is only the first in a long line of Chinese-made utes that are cut-price, tech-filled, practical, and capable.

Chinese automakers BYD, MG, and Leapmotor hit record 9.8% hybrid sales share in Europe, shifting focus amid tariffs and EV competition.

We spotted the highly anticipated BYD Denza B5 off-roader testing in Sydney ahead of its November 2025 arrival.

We live with a BYD Sealion 7 for a few months to see if it has what it takes to take on not only the Tesla Model Y, but also the mainstream ICE rivals like RAV4

August sales figures are in and BYD outsold Tesla in Europe for the second month in a row as the US company continues to struggle.

On Thursday, data from the ACEA showed that BYD sold three times as many new cars in Europe, surpassing Tesla for the second month in a row.

(Reuters) -Chinese EV maker BYD sold three times as many new cars in the European Union last month than in August 2024, surpassing U.S. competitor Tesla for the second consecutive month, data from the European auto lobby ACEA showed on Thursday. Stellantis returned to sales growth in Europe for the first time in over a year, as the overall market expanded with a boost from plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and battery-electric (BEV) sales. Chinese brands have also used the technology to minimise the impact of the European Union's tariffs on Chinese-made EVs, and to win over China-skeptic European drivers.
