Warren Buffett-Backed BYD Forays Into Yet Another European Country With Best-Selling Atto 3, Seal EV
Warren Buffett-backed Chinese EV giant BYD Co Ltd (OTC:BYDDY) (OTC:BYDDF) officially entered the Greek market on Thursday, marking a significant milestone in its European expansion. The company held a launch ceremony in Athens on Wednesday, showcasing its electric vehicles.
禾倫·巴菲特支持的中國電動汽車巨頭比亞迪有限公司（場外交易代碼：BYDDY）（場外交易代碼：BYDDF）週四正式進入希臘市場，標誌着其歐洲擴張的一個重要里程碑。該公司週三在雅典舉行了發佈儀式，展示了其電動汽車。
What Happened: Sfakianakis Group will initially distribute the BYD Atto 3 SUV and the BYD Seal sedan, followed by the Dolphin hatchback and Seal U SUV. While the Atto 3 starts at €37,990 (approximately $41,000), the Seal begins at €45,990 (approximately $49,830).
發生了什麼：斯法基亞納基斯集團最初將分銷比亞迪Atto 3 SUV和比亞迪海豹轎車，其次是Dolphin掀背車和Seal U SUV。而Atto 3的起價爲37,990歐元（約合41,000美元），而Seal的起價爲45,990歐元（約合49,830美元）。
The first two BYD stores will open in Athens, allowing customers to interact with the vehicles and place orders.
前兩家比亞迪門店將在雅典開業，允許顧客與車輛互動並下訂單。
Why It Matters: Since entering Europe in late 2021 with a single model in Norway, BYD has collaborated with local partners and opened over 250 stores across 20 countries.
爲何重要：自2021年底在挪威以單一車型進入歐洲以來，比亞迪一直與當地合作伙伴合作，在20個國家開設了250多家門店。
Despite entering eight markets, including France, Germany, Italy and the U.K., BYD's European share remains minimal, selling only 13,250 cars (0.1%) through November 2023, as per Automotive News Europe.
據《歐洲汽車新聞》報道，儘管進入了包括法國、德國、意大利和英國在內的八個市場，但比亞迪在歐洲的份額仍然微乎其微，截至2023年11月，比亞迪僅售出13,250輛汽車（0.1％）。
BYD reportedly aims to be a top-five player in European registrations in the medium term and also potentially challenge Tesla with its lower-priced electric vehicles. Tesla's Model 3 starts at €41,990 (approximately $45,477), while the Model Y SUV starts at €44,990 (approximately $48,727).
據報道，比亞迪的目標是在中期內成爲歐洲註冊量排名前五的參與者，並有可能以其較低價格的電動汽車挑戰特斯拉。特斯拉的Model 3起價爲41,990歐元（約合45,477美元），而Model Y SUV的起價爲44,990歐元（約合48,727美元）。
Interestingly, BYD outsold Tesla in global BEV sales in the last quarter of 2023, selling 526,000 BEVs compared to Tesla's 485,000.
有趣的是，比亞迪在2023年最後一個季度的全球電動汽車銷量超過了特斯拉，銷售了52.6萬輛電動汽車，而特斯拉的銷量爲48.5萬輛。
