Background
BYD brand It was created in the mid-90s as a supplier to the cellular telephone industry. As a manufacturer of batteries, BYD Auto was created in 2003 and they began to manufacture vehicles of all kinds: cars, buses, delivery vehicles and even bicycles, all with purely electric propulsion.
In Mexico, we are beginning to see BYD-brand vehicles circulating on the streets with transportation vehicles for the Uber application labeled with Vemo company signs, and there are also some large-format BYD delivery vehicles with electric propulsion circulating, as well as forklifts.
The consolidation of the brand in the Mexican market occurs with the presentation of two models called HAN and TANG oriented to the luxury market.
