These three letters, according to Wang Chuanfu, were originally picked at random, selecting an unregistered name, and later, meaning "Build Your Dreams" was given to it, but in the eyes of overseas competitors, BYD might mean: Be Your Daddy.
This sounds like a joke, but looking at the sales data for July, you will find this might be true.
In July, BYD's total sales reached 419,211 vehicles, with overseas sales hitting 179,841 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 124.3%, setting a new historical record. From January to July, cumulative exports totaled 969,000 vehicles, up 78.4% year-on-year. With this momentum, August will see the milestone of overseas sales surpassing one million vehicles.
In the first half of the year, BYD's cumulative overseas sales were 789,367 vehicles, a 68% year-on-year increase, accounting for about 43.6% of total sales. For every 10 cars sold, more than 4 are sold to overseas consumers.
Australia is one of BYD's most outstanding overseas markets.
In the first half of 2026, BYD cumulatively delivered 52,335 vehicles in Australia, up 124% year-on-year. In June alone, 18,881 vehicles were delivered, up 131.5% year-on-year, falling just 243 units short of Toyota. This marked BYD's third consecutive month ranking second in Australian brand sales, trailing the Toyota brand which has dominated the list for 20 years.
The electric vehicle segment is even more striking—BYD delivered 29,192 electric vehicles in the first half of the year, up 241.2% year-on-year, capturing a 28.1% market share, officially replacing Tesla to become the best-selling electric vehicle brand in Australia. Tesla delivered 23,588 vehicles in the first half, holding a 22.3% share.
In June, pure electric vehicles accounted for 23.3% of total new car sales in Australia, while the same period last year was only 7.6%, with the market share nearly tripling within six months. BYD is the biggest beneficiary of this explosive growth.
BYD officially entered the UK market in March 2023. In just over three years, cumulative sales have surpassed 100,000 vehicles.
In the first four months of 2026, BYD sold 26,396 new energy vehicles in the UK, up 124% year-on-year, with a market share exceeding 7%, officially surpassing BMW, Tesla, and Volkswagen to become the largest EV brand in the UK. BYD is also the fastest brand in the history of the UK automotive market to reach a 5% market share.
From initially only having the ATTO 3 model, it has now expanded to 10 models; from 5 dealership outlets, expanded to 143 — in three years, BYD in the UK completed the leap from 0 to 100,000, from unknown to number one.
The Japanese market has always been the toughest bone for foreign automakers. But BYD pried open this door with one car.
On July 28, 2026, BYD officially started pre-sales for its pure electric K-Car "Sea Otter" (RACCO), specifically designed for the Japanese market. The starting price is 2.145 million Yen, approximately equivalent to 88,700 RMB.
In the first week of pre-sales, deposit orders directly surpassed 5,000 units. What does that mean? BYD's total sales in Japan for the full year of 2025 were only 3,731 units. An order volume for one car in one week exceeded the entire previous year. Prior to the launch at the Tokyo Motor Show, the prototype car had already gathered about 30,000 letters of intent. BYD set a goal for the Sea Otter to secure 10,000 orders by the end of 2026 — it now seems this goal might not need to be waited until the end of the year.
Japanese netizens discussed "Chinese car invasion" on one side, while silently placing orders on the other. This is the market's most honest feedback.
The issue is, BYD is not trading volume for lower prices, but rather seeing both volume and price soar together.
The Denza Z9GT launched in Europe, with the pure electric version starting at 115,000 Euros in France, approximately 918,000 RMB. Whereas domestically, the same model starts at only 269,800 RMB. For the same car, the European price is more than three times that in China.
However, the price did not scare off European consumers. The Denza Z9GT simultaneously opened bookings in the UK, Germany, France, Italy, and Spain, with plans to expand to 30 countries by the end of 2026. Denza General Manager Li Hui stated that Z9GT orders are already scheduled four months out. On the launch day of the Denza Z in the UK, nearly 20 orders were received from Serbia, and European and Middle Eastern markets are also urging delivery.
A Chinese car priced at 300,000 RMB selling for nearly 1 million in Europe, and people are still lining up to grab it. Who would have dared to think of this five years ago?
Currently, BYD's business covers 119 countries and regions worldwide. Factories in Thailand and Brazil are operating stably. Bases in Hungary and Indonesia went into production in April 2026. Overseas localized production capacity is expected to exceed 500,000 vehicles.
The 2026 overseas sales target is 1.5 million vehicles. From current data—789,000 in the first half, 180,000 in July alone—this goal is not unreachable.
From being just 243 vehicles short of catching Toyota in Australia, to surpassing BBA in the UK within three years with 100,000 sales, to the Japan K-Car weekly orders exceeding the entire previous year — every step BYD takes overseas is no longer a "trial", but a solid encroachment on the market share of traditional giants.
These three letters BYD may mean "Be Your Daddy" in the eyes of overseas competitors. But in BYD's own view, it might just be another starting point.
After all, globalization has never been an endpoint, but a marathon without an end.
