BYD Reports Global Sales Of More Than 2.17 Lakh Vehicles In Oct 22

BYD reported its monthly sales figures for its foreign markets, selling more than 2.17 lakh units in October 2022. With 2,17,816 units sold, the company reported a 142.2 percent increase in sales from the previous year. The Atto 3 SUV, which will shortly go on sale in India, surpassed the 4 lakh unit mark, bringing the company's total global sales of new energy vehicles to over 2.9 million units.

Sales of passenger cars for the month of October were 2,17,518 units, with 1,03,157 of those being electric cars. The Atto 3 for India, meanwhile, sold 27,548 units in the month across markets, boosting total model sales beyond the 4-lakh threshold.

The wait is still going on for official sales data regarding the brand's performance in India.

With a product line that includes all-electric buses and the e6 electric MPV, BYD has been present on the Indian market for a while now, formerly concentrating solely on the public transportation sector. The e6 MPV was designed with fleet operators in mind, and only lately has the vehicle been made accessible to individual purchasers.

In addition to beginning reservations for the Atto 3 electric SUV in India this year, the business also started operating passenger vehicle dealerships all around the nation. Atto 3 costs should shortly be made public, and deliveries should begin early in 2019.
