MUNICH (Reuters) -China's No. 1 automaker BYD will make its EVs for sale in Europe locally within three years, helping it avoid EU tariffs, while plug-in hybrids should dominate its European sales in the short term, a top executive said on Monday. "We are training ourselves to be more European in production," executive vice president, Stella Li, BYD's No. 2 executive, told Reuters at the IAA Mobility car show in Munich. The EU imposed tariffs on Chinese-made EVs last year because it believed China's automakers benefited from government subsidies.
