BYD, which stands for 'Build Your Dreams,' is a global leader in the new energy sector, renowned primarily for its electric and hybrid vehicles. Founded in 1995 by Wang Chuanfu in Shenzhen, China, the company initially focused on rechargeable batteries, quickly becoming a dominant supplier for mobile phones and consumer electronics. In 2003, BYD expanded into the automotive industry by acquiring Xi'an Qinchuan Automobile, marking the start of its journey to becoming one of the world's largest manufacturers of electric vehicles (EVs).

The brand is celebrated for its vertical integration, meaning it produces most of its own components, including the revolutionary 'Blade Battery' known for its safety and efficiency. While the vast majority of its manufacturing takes place in China across numerous high-tech industrial parks, BYD has expanded its production footprint globally to include facilities in Thailand, Uzbekistan, Brazil, and Hungary, with further expansion planned in regions like Turkey and Indonesia. Today, BYD operates across four major industries: electronics, automobiles, renewable energy, and rail transit, positioning itself as a key driver of the global transition to sustainable transportation.
