You know watt’s up? BYD has yet again bagged another win by being the number one seller of New Energy Vehicles worldwide, and this is really great news for Filipinos. Selling over 3 million cars in 2023, a whopping 61.9% jump from the year before, BYD has marked a 61.9% increase from the previous year and is definitely showing what the future of driving could look like — cleaner and greener.

With the Philippines’ own Mobility Access Philippines Ventures, Inc. (MAPVI), a subsidiary of Ayala Corporation, being the exclusive distributor of BYD cars, the news is something for us to think about as the carmaker prepares to bring its cars to the local market.
BYD’s global growth in electric car technology and its strong sales around the world give Filipinos assurance in the quality and reliability of these cars. With different models like the BYD Han and Tang, as well as the compact Dolphin and the ATTO3, there’s likely a BYD car that fits what Filipinos are looking for.
As reported by Autocar Philippines, MAPVI’s president, Antonio Zara III, is proud of what BYD has done and is ready to bring more BYD electric cars to the Philippines.
