BYD has been on a quest for world domination, as avowed by Executive Vice President Stella Li herself. In recent weeks Its deployed its megawatt-level DC fast charging Flash Stations, and not just in China—it’s recently opened one in the UK, with plans for more around Europe. It plans to be the biggest car manufacturer in the next five years, surpassing Toyota.
