BYD has reached a cumulative sales milestone of 100,000 vehicles in Thailand, distinguishing itself in the Southeast Asian electric vehicle market.

On October 16, during a commemorative event, Liu Xueliang, General Manager of BYD Asia-Pacific Automotive Sales Division, presented the 100,000th eco-friendly model, the Sealion 6 DM-i, to Khun Dapbaransi, President of the Thailand-China Friendship Association, according to BYD’s announcement on the 21st.

BYD achieving 100,000 vehicle sales in the Thai market marks another significant milestone for the company in Thailand. In particular, it is being recognized as an example that demonstrates the deep friendship between China and Thailand, especially in this year marking the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Liu stated, “This achievement suggests that Thai consumers consider environmental factors as a core element when purchasing vehicles,” adding, “We will continue to strengthen our presence in the Thai market and consistently provide upgraded technology, services, and products.”

The 100,000th vehicle sold, the Sealion 6 DM-i, was produced and delivered from BYD’s local factory in Thailand. This plug-in hybrid (PHEV) sport utility vehicle (SUV) is equipped with BYD’s ‘DM-i Super Hybrid’ system, offering exceptional efficiency and performance.

BYD’s factory in Thailand serves as a key vehicle manufacturing hub for Southeast Asia, meeting local market demand as well as supporting exports. BYD explained, “Through our factory in Thailand, we are not only promoting the development of the Thai eco-friendly vehicle industry and creating local employment opportunities, but also demonstrating BYD’s commitment to overseas localization.”
