About BYD
A Global Giant in New Energy
Founded in 1995 as a rechargeable battery manufacturer, BYD (Build Your Dreams) has evolved into a high-tech multinational dedicated to technological innovations for a better life. Today, it stands as the world's largest manufacturer of New Energy Vehicles (NEVs), having surpassed Tesla in global production. The brand’s mission is to "Cool the Earth by 1°C," a vision driven by its complete ecosystem of zero-emission energy solutions, from solar generation to storage and transportation.
BYD in India
While BYD's passenger vehicles are relatively new to Indian roads, the company has successfully operated in India for over 16 years. Its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in
Sriperumbudur, Tamil Nadu, initially focused on mobile components and electric buses. Today, this facility assembles BYD's premium passenger cars, ensuring world-class quality for Indian customers. The brand has quickly established a premium niche, known for delivering high-range EVs that are practical for daily use.
Technological Supremacy
At the core of every BYD vehicle lies the revolutionary
Blade Battery. Rigorously tested (including the extreme "nail penetration test"), this lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery offers unmatched safety, longevity, and range. Combined with the
e-Platform 3.0, which integrates the battery into the vehicle's body structure, BYD cars offer sports-car-level rigidity and efficiency.

BYD India’s portfolio caters to technology enthusiasts and eco-conscious luxury buyers:

The Future is Electric
