BYD officially released the May 2026 production and sales flash report, with new energy vehicles from all brands reaching a monthly sales volume of 383,453 vehicles, a slight increase of 0.26% year-on-year, achieving year-on-year positive growth in monthly sales after ten months; among them, passenger car deliveries reached 376,990 units, surging 19.4% month-on-month, wiping out the pain of previous model iterations, presenting a new pattern where the domestic base is stable, overseas sales are soaring, and high-end brands are scaling up across the board. Amidst the market environment of intensified competition in the domestic new energy sector, Tesla FSD entering China, and an intense launch of independent new products, it has forged a unique structural growth path.

The Dynasty and Ocean main brands combined sold 330,215 vehicles in May, accounting for over 80% of the group's total sales, remaining the stabilizer for BYD's sales volume. The full series had 8 models exceeding 20,000 units in monthly sales, covering products from 50,000 entry-level commuter to 200,000 home SUV.

Inside the Dynasty Network, the Yuan family sold 56,691 units, and the Song family 51,370 units. Both crossed the 50,000 threshold, becoming two major sales pillars for the brand, catering to home commuter and urban-rural travel needs; the Qin family followed closely with a stable performance of 28,360 units. The Han and Tang series maintained a volume in the six-thousand range, deeply cultivating the mid-to-large home sedan and SUV niche markets; the brand new model Xia is in the market cultivation phase, delivering 1,810 units monthly, with potential for steady volume growth as channels expand.
The Ocean Network's growth momentum is even more rapid, with 5 models entering the 20,000 club across the series: Sealion 42,615 units, Seal 34,117 units, Seagull 39,919 units, Dolphin 22,260 units, and Song PLUS 27,755 units. Among them, Seagull remains the best-selling entry-level commuter model thanks to its affordable pricing of 60,000-80,000. Sealion, as a new volume model, stands firm at the 40,000 level upon launch, filling the mid-size SUV product gap in the Ocean Network and perfecting the Ocean product tier layout. From commuter small cars to compact SUVs, the two main brands rely on DM-i hybrid and pure electric dual-line technologies to牢牢锁住 the mainstream home market share within 150,000 domestically.
Fang Cheng Bao Year-on-Year Surges 139.7%, Brand Upward Positioning Takes EffectThe high-end matrix of Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang sold a combined 46,489 vehicles in May, officially breaking away from the niche positioning to become a new pivot for BYD's brand premium and profit growth, breaking the industry curse of difficulty in high-end breakthrough for domestic brands.

The off-road brand Fang Cheng Bao sold 30,186 units monthly, surging 139.7% year-on-year, creating a new high in monthly sales since the brand launched. Its Titanium 7 model sold 18,280 units monthly, while Leopard 5 and Leopard 8 output remained stable, continuously squeezing the survival space for joint venture and imported models in the 250,000-400,000 hardcore off-road niche market.

Denza delivered 16,303 units in May, with the MPV benchmark D9 selling 6,721 units, and the Z9 series close to 6,000 units. MPV and mid-to-large sedan dual-line efforts helped them stand firm in the luxury new energy track; the million-level ultra-luxury brand Yangwang continued its steady climb, delivering 286 units that month, a year-on-year increase of 105.8%, completing market verification of the domestic brand ceiling product and forming a full price range product layout from 100,000+ home, 300,000-400,000 off-road, 500,000 luxury MPV to million-level flagship.

In May, BYD's overseas sales of passenger cars and pickup trucks reached 160,177 units, surging 80.7% year-on-year. Exports accounted for over 42% of the full series total sales, setting a new historical high for brand export and becoming the core driving force to stabilize May overall sales and achieve year-on-year positive growth.
Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America became the main incremental markets. Seagull, Song PLUS, and Yuan series continued to top new energy best-seller lists in multiple countries; the SHARK pickup truck exceeded 4,000 units in monthly exports for two consecutive months. Relying on the completion of localization production in Thailand, Brazil, Hungary, and Uzbekistan with four overseas vehicle factories, localized production continues to land, avoiding tariffs while rapidly penetrating terminal channels. Against the background of stock market competition in the domestic auto industry and normalized price wars, the rapidly expanding overseas market effectively counteracts sales volatility brought by domestic model iterations, officially upgrading from a supplementary market to BYD's core growth engine. As of now, BYD's global cumulative new energy vehicle sales have exceeded 16.5 million units, with the globalization map continuously broadening.
Intelligent Driving Empowers Product Iteration, H2 New Products Prepare to Surge VolumeMay marked a key node in BYD's intelligent driving landing, with the God's Eye intelligent driving system becoming a core bonus point for models: the number of vehicles with advanced intelligent driving across all brands exceeded 3.15 million, with daily road test data exceeding 200 million kilometers; that month, BYD implemented City Pilot and Smart Parking dual safety backup services, becoming the world's first auto manufacturer to achieve dual intelligent driving backups. Three days after policy implementation, the activation rate of models equipped with the God's Eye system in cities surged 50%. Intelligent driving experience upgrades directly drove in-store order conversion, solidifying product competitiveness for subsequent models to continue volume sales, and facing the intelligent driving market shock brought by FSD entering China.
From data details, BYD's cumulative sales from January to May 2026 were 1,405,039 units, down 20.32% year-on-year. The core reason is that the full series of main models were concentratedly iterated, and the capacity ramp-up of the 2nd Gen Fast Charge Blade Battery was restricted. The new Flash Charge Battery upgraded fast charging and low-temperature performance. Full series iteration models prioritized installing new batteries, but production line retrofitting dragged down capacity release. Order backlogs on popular models and delayed deliveries compressed the May delivery volume to a certain extent.
As the end of the second quarter approaches and the 2nd Gen Blade Battery capacity continues to release, coupled with new models such as Denza N8L, Fang Cheng Bao Titanium 7 Pure Electric Version, Sealion 05, and Xia L landing the market, the industry generally predicts that BYD's full brand sales in June are expected to exceed 400,000 vehicles. Relying on the four-dimension development logic of low-end volume locking share, high-end raising profit, overseas pushing volume, and intelligence improving product power, amidst the intensified new energy elimination round in the domestic market, BYD's full category layout advantage continues to amplify, securing its status as the domestic new energy leader, accelerating steadily towards global top auto manufacturers.

In May, BYD's overseas sales of passenger cars and pickup trucks reached 160,177 units, surging 80.7% year-on-year. Exports accounted for over 42% of the full series total sales, setting a new historical high for brand export and becoming the core driving force to stabilize May overall sales and achieve year-on-year positive growth.
Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America became the main incremental markets. Seagull, Song PLUS, and Yuan series continued to top new energy best-seller lists in multiple countries; the SHARK pickup truck exceeded 4,000 units in monthly exports for two consecutive months. Relying on the completion of localization production in Thailand, Brazil, Hungary, and Uzbekistan with four overseas vehicle factories, localized production continues to land, avoiding tariffs while rapidly penetrating terminal channels. Against the background of stock market competition in the domestic auto industry and normalized price wars, the rapidly expanding overseas market effectively counteracts sales volatility brought by domestic model iterations, officially upgrading from a supplementary market to BYD's core growth engine. As of now, BYD's global cumulative new energy vehicle sales have exceeded 16.5 million units, with the globalization map continuously broadening.
Intelligent Driving Empowers Product Iteration, H2 New Products Prepare to Surge VolumeMay marked a key node in BYD's intelligent driving landing, with the God's Eye intelligent driving system becoming a core bonus point for models: the number of vehicles with advanced intelligent driving across all brands exceeded 3.15 million, with daily road test data exceeding 200 million kilometers; that month, BYD implemented City Pilot and Smart Parking dual safety backup services, becoming the world's first auto manufacturer to achieve dual intelligent driving backups. Three days after policy implementation, the activation rate of models equipped with the God's Eye system in cities surged 50%. Intelligent driving experience upgrades directly drove in-store order conversion, solidifying product competitiveness for subsequent models to continue volume sales, and facing the intelligent driving market shock brought by FSD entering China.
From data details, BYD's cumulative sales from January to May 2026 were 1,405,039 units, down 20.32% year-on-year. The core reason is that the full series of main models were concentratedly iterated, and the capacity ramp-up of the 2nd Gen Fast Charge Blade Battery was restricted. The new Flash Charge Battery upgraded fast charging and low-temperature performance. Full series iteration models prioritized installing new batteries, but production line retrofitting dragged down capacity release. Order backlogs on popular models and delayed deliveries compressed the May delivery volume to a certain extent.
As the end of the second quarter approaches and the 2nd Gen Blade Battery capacity continues to release, coupled with new models such as Denza N8L, Fang Cheng Bao Titanium 7 Pure Electric Version, Sealion 05, and Xia L landing the market, the industry generally predicts that BYD's full brand sales in June are expected to exceed 400,000 vehicles. Relying on the four-dimension development logic of low-end volume locking share, high-end raising profit, overseas pushing volume, and intelligence improving product power, amidst the intensified new energy elimination round in the domestic market, BYD's full category layout advantage continues to amplify, securing its status as the domestic new energy leader, accelerating steadily towards global top auto manufacturers.

BYD officially released the May 2026 production and sales flash report, with new energy vehicles from all brands reaching a monthly sales volume of 383,453 vehicles, a slight increase of 0.26% year-on-year, achieving year-on-year positive growth in monthly sales after ten months; among them, passenger car deliveries reached 376,990 units, surging 19.4% month-on-month, wiping out the pain of previous model iterations, presenting a new pattern where the domestic base is stable, overseas sales are soaring, and high-end brands are scaling up across the board. Amidst the market environment of intensified competition in the domestic new energy sector, Tesla FSD entering China, and an intense launch of independent new products, it has forged a unique structural growth path.

The Dynasty and Ocean main brands combined sold 330,215 vehicles in May, accounting for over 80% of the group's total sales, remaining the stabilizer for BYD's sales volume. The full series had 8 models exceeding 20,000 units in monthly sales, covering products from 50,000 entry-level commuter to 200,000 home SUV.

Inside the Dynasty Network, the Yuan family sold 56,691 units, and the Song family 51,370 units. Both crossed the 50,000 threshold, becoming two major sales pillars for the brand, catering to home commuter and urban-rural travel needs; the Qin family followed closely with a stable performance of 28,360 units. The Han and Tang series maintained a volume in the six-thousand range, deeply cultivating the mid-to-large home sedan and SUV niche markets; the brand new model Xia is in the market cultivation phase, delivering 1,810 units monthly, with potential for steady volume growth as channels expand.
The Ocean Network's growth momentum is even more rapid, with 5 models entering the 20,000 club across the series: Sealion 42,615 units, Seal 34,117 units, Seagull 39,919 units, Dolphin 22,260 units, and Song PLUS 27,755 units. Among them, Seagull remains the best-selling entry-level commuter model thanks to its affordable pricing of 60,000-80,000. Sealion, as a new volume model, stands firm at the 40,000 level upon launch, filling the mid-size SUV product gap in the Ocean Network and perfecting the Ocean product tier layout. From commuter small cars to compact SUVs, the two main brands rely on DM-i hybrid and pure electric dual-line technologies to牢牢锁住 the mainstream home market share within 150,000 domestically.
Fang Cheng Bao Year-on-Year Surges 139.7%, Brand Upward Positioning Takes EffectThe high-end matrix of Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang sold a combined 46,489 vehicles in May, officially breaking away from the niche positioning to become a new pivot for BYD's brand premium and profit growth, breaking the industry curse of difficulty in high-end breakthrough for domestic brands.

The off-road brand Fang Cheng Bao sold 30,186 units monthly, surging 139.7% year-on-year, creating a new high in monthly sales since the brand launched. Its Titanium 7 model sold 18,280 units monthly, while Leopard 5 and Leopard 8 output remained stable, continuously squeezing the survival space for joint venture and imported models in the 250,000-400,000 hardcore off-road niche market.

BYD officially released the May 2026 production and sales flash report, with new energy vehicles from all brands reaching a monthly sales volume of 383,453 vehicles, a slight increase of 0.26% year-on-year, achieving year-on-year positive growth in monthly sales after ten months; among them, passenger car deliveries reached 376,990 units, surging 19.4% month-on-month, wiping out the pain of previous model iterations, presenting a new pattern where the domestic base is stable, overseas sales are soaring, and high-end brands are scaling up across the board. Amidst the market environment of intensified competition in the domestic new energy sector, Tesla FSD entering China, and an intense launch of independent new products, it has forged a unique structural growth path.

The Dynasty and Ocean main brands combined sold 330,215 vehicles in May, accounting for over 80% of the group's total sales, remaining the stabilizer for BYD's sales volume. The full series had 8 models exceeding 20,000 units in monthly sales, covering products from 50,000 entry-level commuter to 200,000 home SUV.

Inside the Dynasty Network, the Yuan family sold 56,691 units, and the Song family 51,370 units. Both crossed the 50,000 threshold, becoming two major sales pillars for the brand, catering to home commuter and urban-rural travel needs; the Qin family followed closely with a stable performance of 28,360 units. The Han and Tang series maintained a volume in the six-thousand range, deeply cultivating the mid-to-large home sedan and SUV niche markets; the brand new model Xia is in the market cultivation phase, delivering 1,810 units monthly, with potential for steady volume growth as channels expand.
The Ocean Network's growth momentum is even more rapid, with 5 models entering the 20,000 club across the series: Sealion 42,615 units, Seal 34,117 units, Seagull 39,919 units, Dolphin 22,260 units, and Song PLUS 27,755 units. Among them, Seagull remains the best-selling entry-level commuter model thanks to its affordable pricing of 60,000-80,000. Sealion, as a new volume model, stands firm at the 40,000 level upon launch, filling the mid-size SUV product gap in the Ocean Network and perfecting the Ocean product tier layout. From commuter small cars to compact SUVs, the two main brands rely on DM-i hybrid and pure electric dual-line technologies to牢牢锁住 the mainstream home market share within 150,000 domestically.
Fang Cheng Bao Year-on-Year Surges 139.7%, Brand Upward Positioning Takes EffectThe high-end matrix of Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang sold a combined 46,489 vehicles in May, officially breaking away from the niche positioning to become a new pivot for BYD's brand premium and profit growth, breaking the industry curse of difficulty in high-end breakthrough for domestic brands.

The off-road brand Fang Cheng Bao sold 30,186 units monthly, surging 139.7% year-on-year, creating a new high in monthly sales since the brand launched. Its Titanium 7 model sold 18,280 units monthly, while Leopard 5 and Leopard 8 output remained stable, continuously squeezing the survival space for joint venture and imported models in the 250,000-400,000 hardcore off-road niche market.

Denza delivered 16,303 units in May, with the MPV benchmark D9 selling 6,721 units, and the Z9 series close to 6,000 units. MPV and mid-to-large sedan dual-line efforts helped them stand firm in the luxury new energy track; the million-level ultra-luxury brand Yangwang continued its steady climb, delivering 286 units that month, a year-on-year increase of 105.8%, completing market verification of the domestic brand ceiling product and forming a full price range product layout from 100,000+ home, 300,000-400,000 off-road, 500,000 luxury MPV to million-level flagship.

In May, BYD's overseas sales of passenger cars and pickup trucks reached 160,177 units, surging 80.7% year-on-year. Exports accounted for over 42% of the full series total sales, setting a new historical high for brand export and becoming the core driving force to stabilize May overall sales and achieve year-on-year positive growth.
Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America became the main incremental markets. Seagull, Song PLUS, and Yuan series continued to top new energy best-seller lists in multiple countries; the SHARK pickup truck exceeded 4,000 units in monthly exports for two consecutive months. Relying on the completion of localization production in Thailand, Brazil, Hungary, and Uzbekistan with four overseas vehicle factories, localized production continues to land, avoiding tariffs while rapidly penetrating terminal channels. Against the background of stock market competition in the domestic auto industry and normalized price wars, the rapidly expanding overseas market effectively counteracts sales volatility brought by domestic model iterations, officially upgrading from a supplementary market to BYD's core growth engine. As of now, BYD's global cumulative new energy vehicle sales have exceeded 16.5 million units, with the globalization map continuously broadening.
Intelligent Driving Empowers Product Iteration, H2 New Products Prepare to Surge VolumeMay marked a key node in BYD's intelligent driving landing, with the God's Eye intelligent driving system becoming a core bonus point for models: the number of vehicles with advanced intelligent driving across all brands exceeded 3.15 million, with daily road test data exceeding 200 million kilometers; that month, BYD implemented City Pilot and Smart Parking dual safety backup services, becoming the world's first auto manufacturer to achieve dual intelligent driving backups. Three days after policy implementation, the activation rate of models equipped with the God's Eye system in cities surged 50%. Intelligent driving experience upgrades directly drove in-store order conversion, solidifying product competitiveness for subsequent models to continue volume sales, and facing the intelligent driving market shock brought by FSD entering China.
From data details, BYD's cumulative sales from January to May 2026 were 1,405,039 units, down 20.32% year-on-year. The core reason is that the full series of main models were concentratedly iterated, and the capacity ramp-up of the 2nd Gen Fast Charge Blade Battery was restricted. The new Flash Charge Battery upgraded fast charging and low-temperature performance. Full series iteration models prioritized installing new batteries, but production line retrofitting dragged down capacity release. Order backlogs on popular models and delayed deliveries compressed the May delivery volume to a certain extent.

Recently, media reports claimed BYD was considering acquiring the luxury car brand Maserati. On May 21, BYD responded publicly: It is untrue, it is a rumor.

Hot Tech learned that this rumor stems from Li Siting, BYD Vice President of International Business, at the London Auto Show, regarding the statement "BYD considers acquiring traditional European car brands facing operational difficulties." She pointed out publicly that Maserati is interesting, conveying a signal of "acquisition" to the outside world.
On May 14, BYD Executive Vice President Li Ke told the media that the company is negotiating with the Stellantis Group (Maserati's parent company) to acquire its idle factory in Italy, without mentioning brand acquisition content. Stellantis only acknowledged the news of the factory acquisition negotiation and did not respond to the brand sale content.

It is known that in recent years, BYD, which has developed rapidly, owns five major brands: Dynasty, Ocean, Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang. It has completed coverage from family commuter cars, off-road, and luxury performance vehicles. Its self-developed technologies such as Blade Battery, DM-i Hybrid, and DiSus Chassis are deeply popular in domestic and international markets.

Currently, BYD New Energy Vehicles have been sold in more than 110 countries globally, and have even invested and built factories in countries such as Thailand, Uzbekistan, Brazil, and Hungary. This contact between BYD and the Stellantis Group seems more like an attempt to increase overseas capacity. If negotiations succeed, BYD can directly reduce production and transportation costs and create more profits. The reason for the appearance of the "rumor" is likely due to excessive media interpretation leading to misinterpretation. This official denial can be considered as putting an end to this farce.

According to the latest production and sales data for BYD's May 2026 obtained by "Zao Dong Che", 383,453 new energy vehicles were sold that month, continuing to claim the champion of new energy vehicle sales among Chinese automakers. BYD has now maintained the top spot in domestic new energy vehicle monthly sales for 60 consecutive months. As of now, BYD's cumulative new energy vehicle sales have exceeded 16.5 million units, continuously consolidating its industry-leading advantage.

In detail, BYD's Dynasty Series and Ocean Network continued to sell well, selling a total of 330,215 units in May, continuing to become the core force for BYD's sales growth. Regarding high-end brands, Fang Cheng Bao and Denza sold a combined 46,489 units in May. Among them, Fang Cheng Bao sold 30,186 units, up 139.7% year-on-year, reaching a new high for the year; Denza sold 16,303 units, continuing to maintain a growth trend; YangWang sold 286 units, up 105.8% year-on-year. The full matrix working together drove continuous growth in BYD Group's sales.

In terms of intelligence, as of May 28, the number of vehicles equipped with assisted driving exceeded 3.15 million, with Di Tian Yan generating over 200 million kilometers of data daily. On May 28, BYD announced the launch of Urban Pilot Safety Backstop Service, becoming the world's first automaker to simultaneously achieve "dual backstop" for Urban Pilot and Smart Parking. Smart driving that dares to backstop is truly reliable.

Within three days after the press conference, daily active user count for City Pilot on vehicles equipped with Di Tian Yan A and B assisted driving systems increased by 50%. Prior to the launch of Smart Parking Safety Backstop, the usage rate had increased from 21% to over 90%. BYD Group Chairman and President Wang Chuanfu stated: “Daring to backstop is true safety.”
Since the launch of Smart Parking Safety Backstop last July, the usage rate of Di Tian Yan Smart Parking function has increased from an initial 21% to 93% now, and the Smart Parking accident rate is almost zero. Based on confidence in Di Tian Yan technology and a commitment to consumers, BYD has once again taken the lead in promising to backstop Urban Pilot Safety: Starting today, within one year, for new users from the day they pick up the vehicle, and for old owners upgrading to Di Tian Yan 5.0 via OTA, all will enjoy 1 year of Urban Pilot Backstop. When users use Urban Pilot functions compliantly, if a traffic accident with liability occurs, direct economic losses that should be borne by the vehicle (including vehicle repair costs, third-party property damage, personal injury losses) will be directly compensated by BYD.

Comparing to common smart driving insurance in the industry, BYD's Urban Pilot Backstop is entirely free, has no limit, and will not affect commercial insurance premiums for the following year. Since then, BYD has become the world's first enterprise to have "dual backstop" for Urban Pilot and Smart Parking safety, using concrete actions to make assisted driving truly integrate into users' daily travel and life, enabling users to gain safety experiences.
BYD's technical confidence to dare to backstop comes from the three unique advantages of Di Tian Yan: First is the scale advantage, with BYD's assisted driving vehicles exceeding 3.15 million units, ranking first among Chinese automakers; second is the data advantage, with Di Tian Yan generating over 200 million kilometers of data daily, ranking first among Chinese automakers; and last is the R&D advantage, with the assisted driving R&D team having over 5,000 engineers, with the team size ranking first among Chinese automakers.

Technical innovation continues to transform into product competitiveness. After the launch of the 2nd Gen Blade Battery and Flash Charge Technology, models such as the 3rd Gen Yuan PLUS, Fang Cheng Bao Leopard 5 Flash Charge Version, Leopard 8 Flash Charge Version, and Denza N9 Flash Charge Version have successively launched. Meanwhile, the Tang on Dynasty Network will launch in mid-June, and Denza N8L Flash Charge Version, Seal 08, and Sealion 08 will also launch successively, further expanding BYD's Flash Charge product matrix.
In the just passed May, BYD's overseas market continued to maintain high-speed growth. Passenger cars and pickup trucks sold 160,177 units overseas, up 80.7% year-on-year, creating a new historical high. Models such as Seagull, Song PLUS, and the Yuan Series continued to sell well, and the SHARK Pickup truck exceeded 4,000 units for two consecutive months. As the product matrix continues to enrich and the global layout deepens, BYD's globalization process will continue to advance rapidly.

On May 18, 2026, BYD officially launched DM Technology in the Indonesia market. With more flexible energy management capabilities and higher energy efficiency performance, this technology will provide new energy mobility solutions covering multiple scenarios for Indonesian consumers.
According to Zhao Yue, General Manager of BYD Indonesia Branch: "Since the passenger car business entered the Indonesia market in January 2024, BYD has gained wide recognition from local users, with about 90,000 new energy vehicles currently driving on Indonesia's streets and alleys. Under the double drive of government policy support and market demand growth, the Indonesia new energy vehicle market continues to expand, with EV penetration rate increasing from less than 1% in 2022 to about 20% in the first quarter of 2026, and the electrification process significantly accelerating. The introduction of DM Technology means that BYD is no longer just providing products of a single energy form in Indonesia, but is starting to provide a more complete mobility choice logic. We hope to enable users to no longer need to choose between city commuting and long-distance travel through DM Technology, making it a daily travel mode that can be used without pressure."
It is understood that Indonesia is vast in area, inter-city travel demand is frequent, and charging infrastructure is still in the process of continuous improvement, so consumer demand for multi-scenario new energy vehicle models that can balance daily commuting and long-distance travel continues to rise.
DM Technology uses electric drive as the core driving logic, presenting pure-electric-like quietness and efficiency in city commuting; in long-distance travel, it collaboratively guarantees range and travel freedom through an intelligent energy management system, thereby achieving comprehensive coverage of multi-scenario travel needs.

And in the crossover field, on local time May 21, Denza joined hands with Swiss luxury jewelry and watch brand Chopard to create the global unique Denza Z9GT Chopard Edition with exquisite craftsmanship, donated to the 32nd Cannes amfAR Charity Gala. As a highly anticipated charity event during the Cannes Film Festival, the gala aims to raise funds for AIDS research. On that night, the Denza Z9GT Chopard Edition was hammered down at 700,000 Euros (approx. 5.55 million RMB), becoming one of the most anticipated auction items on site.

Adhering to Denza's concept of "Extraordinary Technology, Driving Luxury", Z9GT becomes an ideal carrier for the excellent dialogue between Chinese tech performance and Swiss craftsmanship. Denza brings flagship GT models, frontier innovative technology, and the Yi San Fang Platform; Chopard adds splendor to this work with its inherent luxury style, profound heritage, and exquisite craftsmanship, turning the whole vehicle into a jewelry art piece in motion.

Interestingly, on local time May 14, BYD partnered with European famous independent film production company Mediawan to establish an award aimed at inspiring new film talents — Dream Building Award (Build Your Dream Award) in Cannes, France. The award ceremony is held concurrently with the Cannes Film Festival, annually awarding the best feature film debut released in French theaters within the past 1 year. The jury is chaired by famous Chinese director Chen Kaige, with members including French famous actor, director, and screenwriter Mélanie Laurent, French actor Hafsia Herzi, and other international film industry authorities.
Chen Kaige serves as the Chairman of the Dream Building Award Jury. Since the 1980s, Chen Kaige has gained international fame for his outstanding artistic achievements and has become an important representative figure promoting the development and evolution of Chinese cinema. In 1993, his film "Farewell My Concubine" won the highest award of the Cannes Film Festival — the Palme d'Or. Chen Kaige stated: "There are countless young people around the world harboring the dream of becoming film directors. Holding the Dream Building Award during the Cannes Film Festival, this award set specifically for new film talents, is a highly meaningful and precious thing for them."
From sales growth to overseas breakthrough, from tech innovation to intelligent popularization, the scorecard delivered by BYD in May reflects the continuous upward development trend of China's new energy vehicle industry. As the new energy vehicle industry accelerates development, the global competitiveness of Chinese brands is rapidly improving.

BYD officially released the May 2026 production and sales flash report, with new energy vehicles from all brands reaching a monthly sales volume of 383,453 vehicles, a slight increase of 0.26% year-on-year, achieving year-on-year positive growth in monthly sales after ten months; among them, passenger car deliveries reached 376,990 units, surging 19.4% month-on-month, wiping out the pain of previous model iterations, presenting a new pattern where the domestic base is stable, overseas sales are soaring, and high-end brands are scaling up across the board. Amidst the market environment of intensified competition in the domestic new energy sector, Tesla FSD entering China, and an intense launch of independent new products, it has forged a unique structural growth path.

The Dynasty and Ocean main brands combined sold 330,215 vehicles in May, accounting for over 80% of the group's total sales, remaining the stabilizer for BYD's sales volume. The full series had 8 models exceeding 20,000 units in monthly sales, covering products from 50,000 entry-level commuter to 200,000 home SUV.

Inside the Dynasty Network, the Yuan family sold 56,691 units, and the Song family 51,370 units. Both crossed the 50,000 threshold, becoming two major sales pillars for the brand, catering to home commuter and urban-rural travel needs; the Qin family followed closely with a stable performance of 28,360 units. The Han and Tang series maintained a volume in the six-thousand range, deeply cultivating the mid-to-large home sedan and SUV niche markets; the brand new model Xia is in the market cultivation phase, delivering 1,810 units monthly, with potential for steady volume growth as channels expand.
The Ocean Network's growth momentum is even more rapid, with 5 models entering the 20,000 club across the series: Sealion 42,615 units, Seal 34,117 units, Seagull 39,919 units, Dolphin 22,260 units, and Song PLUS 27,755 units. Among them, Seagull remains the best-selling entry-level commuter model thanks to its affordable pricing of 60,000-80,000. Sealion, as a new volume model, stands firm at the 40,000 level upon launch, filling the mid-size SUV product gap in the Ocean Network and perfecting the Ocean product tier layout. From commuter small cars to compact SUVs, the two main brands rely on DM-i hybrid and pure electric dual-line technologies to牢牢锁住 the mainstream home market share within 150,000 domestically.
Fang Cheng Bao Year-on-Year Surges 139.7%, Brand Upward Positioning Takes EffectThe high-end matrix of Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang sold a combined 46,489 vehicles in May, officially breaking away from the niche positioning to become a new pivot for BYD's brand premium and profit growth, breaking the industry curse of difficulty in high-end breakthrough for domestic brands.

The off-road brand Fang Cheng Bao sold 30,186 units monthly, surging 139.7% year-on-year, creating a new high in monthly sales since the brand launched. Its Titanium 7 model sold 18,280 units monthly, while Leopard 5 and Leopard 8 output remained stable, continuously squeezing the survival space for joint venture and imported models in the 250,000-400,000 hardcore off-road niche market.

Denza delivered 16,303 units in May, with the MPV benchmark D9 selling 6,721 units, and the Z9 series close to 6,000 units. MPV and mid-to-large sedan dual-line efforts helped them stand firm in the luxury new energy track; the million-level ultra-luxury brand Yangwang continued its steady climb, delivering 286 units that month, a year-on-year increase of 105.8%, completing market verification of the domestic brand ceiling product and forming a full price range product layout from 100,000+ home, 300,000-400,000 off-road, 500,000 luxury MPV to million-level flagship.

In May, BYD's overseas sales of passenger cars and pickup trucks reached 160,177 units, surging 80.7% year-on-year. Exports accounted for over 42% of the full series total sales, setting a new historical high for brand export and becoming the core driving force to stabilize May overall sales and achieve year-on-year positive growth.
Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America became the main incremental markets. Seagull, Song PLUS, and Yuan series continued to top new energy best-seller lists in multiple countries; the SHARK pickup truck exceeded 4,000 units in monthly exports for two consecutive months. Relying on the completion of localization production in Thailand, Brazil, Hungary, and Uzbekistan with four overseas vehicle factories, localized production continues to land, avoiding tariffs while rapidly penetrating terminal channels. Against the background of stock market competition in the domestic auto industry and normalized price wars, the rapidly expanding overseas market effectively counteracts sales volatility brought by domestic model iterations, officially upgrading from a supplementary market to BYD's core growth engine. As of now, BYD's global cumulative new energy vehicle sales have exceeded 16.5 million units, with the globalization map continuously broadening.
Intelligent Driving Empowers Product Iteration, H2 New Products Prepare to Surge VolumeMay marked a key node in BYD's intelligent driving landing, with the God's Eye intelligent driving system becoming a core bonus point for models: the number of vehicles with advanced intelligent driving across all brands exceeded 3.15 million, with daily road test data exceeding 200 million kilometers; that month, BYD implemented City Pilot and Smart Parking dual safety backup services, becoming the world's first auto manufacturer to achieve dual intelligent driving backups. Three days after policy implementation, the activation rate of models equipped with the God's Eye system in cities surged 50%. Intelligent driving experience upgrades directly drove in-store order conversion, solidifying product competitiveness for subsequent models to continue volume sales, and facing the intelligent driving market shock brought by FSD entering China.
From data details, BYD's cumulative sales from January to May 2026 were 1,405,039 units, down 20.32% year-on-year. The core reason is that the full series of main models were concentratedly iterated, and the capacity ramp-up of the 2nd Gen Fast Charge Blade Battery was restricted. The new Flash Charge Battery upgraded fast charging and low-temperature performance. Full series iteration models prioritized installing new batteries, but production line retrofitting dragged down capacity release. Order backlogs on popular models and delayed deliveries compressed the May delivery volume to a certain extent.
As the end of the second quarter approaches and the 2nd Gen Blade Battery capacity continues to release, coupled with new models such as Denza N8L, Fang Cheng Bao Titanium 7 Pure Electric Version, Sealion 05, and Xia L landing the market, the industry generally predicts that BYD's full brand sales in June are expected to exceed 400,000 vehicles. Relying on the four-dimension development logic of low-end volume locking share, high-end raising profit, overseas pushing volume, and intelligence improving product power, amidst the intensified new energy elimination round in the domestic market, BYD's full category layout advantage continues to amplify, securing its status as the domestic new energy leader, accelerating steadily towards global top auto manufacturers.

In May 2026, Daniel Craig, the former 007 actor who occupies a special place in the hearts of film fans worldwide, drove the Denza Z9 GT in an ad campaign that sparked heated discussion abroad, vividly interpreting the slogan "Technology Drives Elegance".

Even more stunning was the hammer strike of a unique crossover customized vehicle at the Cannes amfAR Charity Gala, the globally unique Denza Z9GT Chopard Edition, which was sold for 700,000 euros (approximately 5.55 million yuan).
When Chinese cars begin to define "elegance" and "scarcity", shouldn't the world update its mindset as well?
At the same time, another piece of news was more influential.

Not long ago, Kantar BrandZ released the global brand value ranking: BYD ranked fifth globally among automotive brands with a brand value of 20.362 billion USD, spiking 41% year-on-year, with the fastest growth for two consecutive years, just a step away from fourth-place Mercedes-Benz.
From the elegance of 007 to the hammer strike at Cannes, and then to the dazzling data of BrandZ, a series of "Global Moments" connected together, outlining a new landscape of the automotive industry led by Chinese brands.
Past: The Sower: That Underrated Decade
The narrative of BYD's "Global Time" must begin with a long decade of sowing.

Time returns to the 2010s, when the industry generally believed that Chinese cars could only fight price wars domestically, but BYD K9 electric buses drove into London, Paris, and Tokyo. It not only obtained strict European entry certifications but also was the first to enter the Japanese market. K9, which became the first global business card for China's new energy vehicles.
Diligence in technology would later evolve into a series of "Global Safety Stories" that went viral.

In 2026, in Jerusalem, a Yuan PLUS encountered a missile attack, the entire vehicle was overturned, the windows shattered, but the A, B, and C pillars were intact, the battery system did not experience thermal runaway, and the 5 people inside safely escaped.
In another incident, a Song PLUS DM-i belonging to a Brazilian owner was shot at by bandits with firearms, bullets failed to penetrate the car body, the driver escaped safely, and later remarked on social media: "It was BYD that saved my life."
"Safety is the ultimate luxury". BYD turned a series of deadly and real battlefield crises into a creed that wins the heart of the whole world.

The accumulation of technology was finally reflected in a full explosion in sales. In 2023, BYD surpassed Tesla to win the global new energy vehicle sales championship for the first time. In April 2026, BYD's 16 millionth new energy vehicle came off the line, from 10 million to 16 million took only 17 months.
The running speed of China's automotive industry on the global racecourse has never been so amazing. But on the world map, what BYD sowed earlier was not just products.
In 2021, BYD's first Southeast Asia factory started production in Thailand; in 2023, the Camaçari, Brazil factory was reborn; in 2025, the Hungary factory rose in Europe. Every move laid solid support for the explosion of the overseas market in the next few years.
Present: 2026, the year of global coronation
In April 2026, the global car market welcomed a historic moment. BYD topped the sales chart for all categories in Brazilian automotive retail with monthly retail sales of 14,911 units and a market share of 12.8%. Volkswagen's 20-year rule in Brazil was ended. Brazilian President Lula also became a BYD owner.

At the same time, the European battlefield was unstoppable. In Italy, BYD surpassed Volkswagen and Tesla to take the top spot in the sub-segment for the first time; in Germany, sales volume grew by more than 647% year-on-year; in the UK and Spain, year-on-year growth exceeded 600%. The Hungary factory is fully operational, with an annual capacity of 150,000 units, becoming the largest Chinese car factory in Europe.

In Southeast Asia, for every 3 pure electric vehicles sold in Thailand, at least 1 is from BYD. The Thailand factory has an annual capacity of 150,000 units, and through the ASEAN internal zero-tariff circulation system, the product touch extends to the entire Southeast Asia region.

Looking globally, in April 2026, BYD overseas sales reached 134,500 units, a year-on-year growth of 70.9%, setting a new record. Cumulative overseas sales from January to April reached 454,300 units, and overseas sales have accounted for more than 40% of the group's total sales. Penetration, scale, growth rate — all three mastered.
Brand Transformation: From Crazy Boasts to a Reality to Be Admired
Once upon a time, many people's impression of BYD stayed on "low-end" and "cheap". Do you remember in 2007, Wang Chuanfu once declared "will be No. 1 globally by 2025", when the audience was full of laughter. But when BYD surpassed Tesla in 2023 to become the global new energy vehicle sales champion, that seemingly crazy boast has been fulfilled ahead of schedule.

When Yangwang U9 Xtreme broke the global mass-produced car speed record with an actual measured top speed of 496.22 km/h, ran 6 minutes 59 seconds on the Nürburgring to become the first pure electric mass-produced vehicle to break the 7-minute mark, with a selling price of over 20 million and truly delivered to users, people's cognition underwent a thorough turnaround. Chinese cars have finally gained pricing power in the supercar field for the first time.
At the same time, the 5th Generation DM hybrid system was further evolved, with NEDC low-battery fuel consumption per 100km dropping to 2.6 liters, a full tank and full battery combined range of 2,100 kilometers, achieving "a tank of fuel from Beijing straight to Shenzhen".

The 2nd Generation Blade Battery and Flash Charge technology launched in March 2026 dropped a bombshell in the recharging link. Wang Chuanfu boldly declared on the spot: "5 minutes to full charge, 9 minutes to full, plus only 3 minutes at minus 30 degrees."

The leap in brand value is the most direct evidence. From appearing on the BrandZ Global Automotive list for the first time in 2022 ranked eighth, to reaching fifth place in 2026, BYD has used four years to grow from a "newcomer" to a core role in the global automotive brand camp.
Conclusion
Brand, Performance, Market, Cultural Premium — BYD is rewriting the landscape of the global automotive industry simultaneously on four dimensions. Boundaries between traditional and non-traditional are dissolving, ecological niches of innovators and vested interests are being reshaped.

In the pinnacle showdown of this "King of Industries", no Chinese enterprise has ever walked so deeply and so confidently.
In the past, the world saw BYD; now, the world chooses BYD; in the future, the world will watch BYD together.
This is BYD's Global Time.

BYD officially released the May 2026 production and sales flash report, with new energy vehicles from all brands reaching a monthly sales volume of 383,453 vehicles, a slight increase of 0.26% year-on-year, achieving year-on-year positive growth in monthly sales after ten months; among them, passenger car deliveries reached 376,990 units, surging 19.4% month-on-month, wiping out the pain of previous model iterations, presenting a new pattern where the domestic base is stable, overseas sales are soaring, and high-end brands are scaling up across the board. Amidst the market environment of intensified competition in the domestic new energy sector, Tesla FSD entering China, and an intense launch of independent new products, it has forged a unique structural growth path.

The Dynasty and Ocean main brands combined sold 330,215 vehicles in May, accounting for over 80% of the group's total sales, remaining the stabilizer for BYD's sales volume. The full series had 8 models exceeding 20,000 units in monthly sales, covering products from 50,000 entry-level commuter to 200,000 home SUV.

Inside the Dynasty Network, the Yuan family sold 56,691 units, and the Song family 51,370 units. Both crossed the 50,000 threshold, becoming two major sales pillars for the brand, catering to home commuter and urban-rural travel needs; the Qin family followed closely with a stable performance of 28,360 units. The Han and Tang series maintained a volume in the six-thousand range, deeply cultivating the mid-to-large home sedan and SUV niche markets; the brand new model Xia is in the market cultivation phase, delivering 1,810 units monthly, with potential for steady volume growth as channels expand.
The Ocean Network's growth momentum is even more rapid, with 5 models entering the 20,000 club across the series: Sealion 42,615 units, Seal 34,117 units, Seagull 39,919 units, Dolphin 22,260 units, and Song PLUS 27,755 units. Among them, Seagull remains the best-selling entry-level commuter model thanks to its affordable pricing of 60,000-80,000. Sealion, as a new volume model, stands firm at the 40,000 level upon launch, filling the mid-size SUV product gap in the Ocean Network and perfecting the Ocean product tier layout. From commuter small cars to compact SUVs, the two main brands rely on DM-i hybrid and pure electric dual-line technologies to牢牢锁住 the mainstream home market share within 150,000 domestically.
Fang Cheng Bao Year-on-Year Surges 139.7%, Brand Upward Positioning Takes EffectThe high-end matrix of Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang sold a combined 46,489 vehicles in May, officially breaking away from the niche positioning to become a new pivot for BYD's brand premium and profit growth, breaking the industry curse of difficulty in high-end breakthrough for domestic brands.

The off-road brand Fang Cheng Bao sold 30,186 units monthly, surging 139.7% year-on-year, creating a new high in monthly sales since the brand launched. Its Titanium 7 model sold 18,280 units monthly, while Leopard 5 and Leopard 8 output remained stable, continuously squeezing the survival space for joint venture and imported models in the 250,000-400,000 hardcore off-road niche market.

Denza delivered 16,303 units in May, with the MPV benchmark D9 selling 6,721 units, and the Z9 series close to 6,000 units. MPV and mid-to-large sedan dual-line efforts helped them stand firm in the luxury new energy track; the million-level ultra-luxury brand Yangwang continued its steady climb, delivering 286 units that month, a year-on-year increase of 105.8%, completing market verification of the domestic brand ceiling product and forming a full price range product layout from 100,000+ home, 300,000-400,000 off-road, 500,000 luxury MPV to million-level flagship.

In May, BYD's overseas sales of passenger cars and pickup trucks reached 160,177 units, surging 80.7% year-on-year. Exports accounted for over 42% of the full series total sales, setting a new historical high for brand export and becoming the core driving force to stabilize May overall sales and achieve year-on-year positive growth.
Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America became the main incremental markets. Seagull, Song PLUS, and Yuan series continued to top new energy best-seller lists in multiple countries; the SHARK pickup truck exceeded 4,000 units in monthly exports for two consecutive months. Relying on the completion of localization production in Thailand, Brazil, Hungary, and Uzbekistan with four overseas vehicle factories, localized production continues to land, avoiding tariffs while rapidly penetrating terminal channels. Against the background of stock market competition in the domestic auto industry and normalized price wars, the rapidly expanding overseas market effectively counteracts sales volatility brought by domestic model iterations, officially upgrading from a supplementary market to BYD's core growth engine. As of now, BYD's global cumulative new energy vehicle sales have exceeded 16.5 million units, with the globalization map continuously broadening.
Intelligent Driving Empowers Product Iteration, H2 New Products Prepare to Surge VolumeMay marked a key node in BYD's intelligent driving landing, with the God's Eye intelligent driving system becoming a core bonus point for models: the number of vehicles with advanced intelligent driving across all brands exceeded 3.15 million, with daily road test data exceeding 200 million kilometers; that month, BYD implemented City Pilot and Smart Parking dual safety backup services, becoming the world's first auto manufacturer to achieve dual intelligent driving backups. Three days after policy implementation, the activation rate of models equipped with the God's Eye system in cities surged 50%. Intelligent driving experience upgrades directly drove in-store order conversion, solidifying product competitiveness for subsequent models to continue volume sales, and facing the intelligent driving market shock brought by FSD entering China.
From data details, BYD's cumulative sales from January to May 2026 were 1,405,039 units, down 20.32% year-on-year. The core reason is that the full series of main models were concentratedly iterated, and the capacity ramp-up of the 2nd Gen Fast Charge Blade Battery was restricted. The new Flash Charge Battery upgraded fast charging and low-temperature performance. Full series iteration models prioritized installing new batteries, but production line retrofitting dragged down capacity release. Order backlogs on popular models and delayed deliveries compressed the May delivery volume to a certain extent.
As the end of the second quarter approaches and the 2nd Gen Blade Battery capacity continues to release, coupled with new models such as Denza N8L, Fang Cheng Bao Titanium 7 Pure Electric Version, Sealion 05, and Xia L landing the market, the industry generally predicts that BYD's full brand sales in June are expected to exceed 400,000 vehicles. Relying on the four-dimension development logic of low-end volume locking share, high-end raising profit, overseas pushing volume, and intelligence improving product power, amidst the intensified new energy elimination round in the domestic market, BYD's full category layout advantage continues to amplify, securing its status as the domestic new energy leader, accelerating steadily towards global top auto manufacturers.
