In November 2024, BYD reached cumulative production of 10 million plugin vehicles (or “new energy vehicles” as they are called in China).

Their vehicles are still more than competitive, even when prices are inflated by politicians. However, because the added tariffs do not apply to PHEVs, those models have been growing faster. This is driving faster PHEV growth in 2025.
