BYD surpasses the sale of 1.2 million electric vehicles with smart driving capabilities
BYD Dominates China's Smart Driving Market with 87% Market Share
In a significant development, Chinese automaker BYD has announced impressive sales figures for July. The company sold a total of 228,215 vehicles equipped with smart driving systems, accounting for 87% of the total sales of vehicles equipped with driver-assistance systems in China.
The success of BYD's smart driving system, known as God's Eye, is evident in the sales of its various models. The system, which comes in three levels - God's Eye A, B, and C - is primarily used across BYD's Dynasty, Ocean, and Denza series, as well as the high-end sub-brand Yangwang and the Fang Cheng Bao sub-brand.
The highest-end God's Eye A is exclusive to Yangwang's ultra-luxury models. The God's Eye B and C systems are used on Dynasty, Ocean, and Denza models, while Fang Cheng Bao uses either God's Eye C or Huawei's Qiankun smart driving system in some of its models.
In July, Yangwang sold 320 vehicles equipped with the God's Eye A system, and Denza sold 9,936 vehicles equipped with assisted driving systems, using either God's Eye C or God's Eye B. On the other hand, vehicles from the Dynasty and Ocean series, equipped with God's Eye B and God's Eye C, sold a combined total of 204,838 units.
Fang Cheng Bao, which recently launched models like the Tai 7 equipped with God's Eye systems and options with and without LiDAR, using God's Eye or Huawei Qiankun ADS, sold 13,121 vehicles equipped with an assisted driving system in July.
This sales data reveals BYD's tiered approach to smart driving tech, integrating in-house God's Eye systems at different levels for most models, while selectively using Huawei's Qiankun system in the Fang Cheng Bao sub-brand.
The impressive sales figures also indicate the daily generation of a substantial amount of driver-assistance data. On average, these vehicles generate over 72 million kilometers of driver-assistance data each day.
BYD, which is traded under the ticker symbols HKG: 1211 and OTCMKTS: BYDDY, has sold over 1.2 million vehicles equipped with driver-assistance systems as of the end of July. It is important to note that these sales figures are for vehicles equipped with smart driving systems only.
In another exciting development, BYD's high-end sub-brand Yangwang has filed for a new U9 supercar. The new model is expected to have double the motor power compared to its current models.
