BYD set to overtake Tesla as world’s biggest EV seller

BUILD YOUR DREAM --- BYD world's largest EV seller

Elon Musk once laughed at the prospect of Chinese EV maker BYD becoming a serious rival to Tesla. He's not laughing anymore. . .

• The Shenzhen-based automaker has surpassed Tesla to become the world's largest seller of battery electric vehicles, capping a meteoric rise that has left Musk's company fighting to preserve its EV dominance.

BYD reported on Thursday that it sold 2.25 million battery-powered EVs in 2025, a nearly 28% rise from the year before. By contrast, Tesla reported annual sales of 1.64 million on Friday, an 8.5% fall.
