BYD is not only bringing a diverse range of pure electric and hybrid models to the Brazilian market but is also focused on expanding its sales and service network. The company plans to establish 100 stores in Brazil by the end of the current year, further enhancing its presence.

Although the exact number of BYD stores in Brazil was not mentioned in the press release, it did note that 24 offline dealer stores were operational when the Dolphin model was introduced in late June.

BYD has also previously disclosed plans to create a significant manufacturing complex in Brazil, consisting of three plants, with production slated to commence in 2025. The investment for this complex is estimated at 3 billion reais, and it was jointly announced by BYD and the Brazilian state government of Bahia on July 4.

The industrial complex encompasses a production facility for electric buses and truck chassis, a new energy passenger car manufacturing plant, and a processing plant specializing in lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery materials. The passenger car production line will have the capacity to produce pure electric models and plug-in hybrids, with an annual output target of 150,000 الوحدات.

علاوة على ذلك, the LFP battery material processing plant will leverage local port resources to meet the increasing global demand for new energy vehicle (نيف) products.

Production at this expansive industrial complex is slated to commence in the second half of 2024, and it is anticipated to generate over 5,000 local jobs, as stated in BYD’s earlier release. This underscores BYD’s commitment to the Brazilian market and its contribution to the region’s economic growth.
