They are very much “at home” in Hungary says BYD. The Shenzhen-based company has an eBus manufacturing facility in Komárom, which opened in 2017. BYD Electric Bus & Truck Hungary Kft. is primarily involved with eBus assembly operations and associated new energy products. BYD strongly believes in meaningful partnerships, supporting local economies through employment opportunities, and continues to invest in such initiatives, embracing its philosophy “made in Europe for Europe.”
“We are delighted to see our BYD eTruck business make its debut in Hungary, a country that we are already very familiar with. There is exciting market potential in Hungary for our pure-electric, zero-emissions BYD eTrucks, at a time when the world is coming together to address climate change. BYD is committed to playing an active role in helping commercial transportation make the smooth transition to clean, pure-electric trucks that are safe, reliable, and practical to operate,” said BYD Europe B.V. Managing Director, Isbrand Ho.
BYD’s expertise in pioneering battery and electric vehicle technology delivers a longer driving range and battery life, with convenient rapid charging for optimal productivity. BYD is the first and only automotive company to produce its own powertrain system, batteries, and motor control system, as part of an integrated technology designed for increased reliability and ease of use.
BYD’s electric trucks offer a clean means of moving products and the added benefit of low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) making them a more practical option compared to traditional internal combustion engine trucks.
In the Philippines, BYD’s commercial offerings include counterbalanced forklifts, reach trucks, pallet trucks, and stackers. Their locally offered passenger vehicles, on the other hand include models like the E6 EV MPV, S1 EV crossover, E3 EV sedan, T3 EV minivan, and E2 hatchback, among others.
