This reflects the broader pressure brought by the Chinese auto market entering its traditional slow season at the beginning of the year.Despite the pressure on domestic sales, BYD's overseas business hit a record high. The company's overseas sales of passenger vehicles and pickup trucks reached 134,542 units in April, surging 70.9% year-on-year.Breaking down by brand, the main BYD brand, which includes the Dynasty and Ocean lineup, contributed 273,448 units to the April sales.The sub-brand Fang Cheng Bao delivered a stellar performance, with monthly sales reaching 29,138 units, up 190.25% year-on-year and 12.39% from March. <div> Fang Cheng Bao monthly sales 2024 2025 2026 </div> Denza sold 11,250 vehicles in April, jumping 57.72% month-on-month.

BYD's net profit for the first quarter dropped 55.38% to 4.09 billion yuan ($599 million).The steep drop in profit is primarily attributed to the fierce price war in the Chinese market and the phasing out of NEV support policies. Additionally, soaring supply chain hardware costs have posed financial challenges.To cope with rising costs, BYD recently raised the optional upgrade price for its advanced smart driving system by more than 20%.Meanwhile, BYD is actively rolling out new models equipped with ultra-fast charging technology to defend its market share, having launched over 10 models featuring this technology and the second-generation Blade Battery so far.Notably, BYD has made a breakthrough in the high-end market. At the Beijing Auto Show, its Yangwang U9 Xtreme supercar was sold for over 20 million yuan. <div> <div> <img width="768" height="432" src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://cnevpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2026042810483843-768x432.jpg?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://cnevpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2026042810483843-768x432.jpg"/> </div> <div> BYD Q1 profit plunges 55% on early-year slow season in China BYD's first-quarter net profit tumbled 55% as the traditional early-year slow season in China pressured automakers' profits. </div> </div> ($1 = 6.8282 yuan) </div>
