The milestone marks rapid growth for the manufacturer, which only launched its first UK model, the ATTO 3, in March 2023.
The brand has also expanded its reach with its DM-i plug-in hybrid lineup, introducing models such as the SEAL U DM-i, ATTO 2 DM-i, SEALION 5 DM-i, and the SEAL 6 DM-i in both Saloon and Touring variants.
BYD adds that it’s scaled its UK retail presence from five original launch sites to a network of 143 locations nationwide.
Bono Ge, Country Manager for BYD UK comments:We are incredibly grateful to the 100,000 BYD owners who have placed their trust in us—and to the 100,000 families behind them who have welcomed BYD into their lives.
Not too long ago, the company also announced that it was working with the St Johns Ambulance service to test a customized version of its fully-electric BYD SEALION 7 for use in medical emergencies.
