China's BYD Was The Third-Best-Selling Brand In The World This July

  • BYD sold 315,600 cars globally in July, behind Toyota and Volkswagen. 
  • According to its August earnings call, 2/3 of its sales are hybrid vehicles.
  • Despite a great performance in July, BYD is only in 8th place in overall sales for the year so far.

It feels like every other week BYD makes an announcement about entering yet another country's car market. Whether it’s Trinidad and Tobago or South Korea, the Chinese brand’s EV, Hybrid and PHEV products are on sale practically everywhere now. Well, everywhere except the United States. It seems to be paying off; this past July, BYD was the third best-selling brand in the world.
