BYD’s new EV sedan “SEAL” is selling well
The cumulative number of orders for the BYD SEAL has exceeded 300 units in just one month since its release. This is due to the combined effect of the BYD SEAL’s debut and the nationwide TV commercial “Maybe it’s BYD!” starring Masami Nagasawa .
As a result, the number of customers visiting stores increased by 86% compared to the same month last year, and BYD’s overall sales are also strong. BYD’s total number of orders for a single month in July reached a record high of over 400 units.
