BYD has officially launched its presence in the Vietnamese market with the test drive event “BYD Week – Technology Green Future”. The program took place from June 15 to June 19, 2024, at The Global City, Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City. The main activities included test drives and displays of BYD’s three flagship models: the BYD SEAL, BYD DOLPHIN, and BYD ATTO 3; a technology exhibition showcasing BYD’s ecosystem and that of its partners; and more.

“BYD Week – Technology Green Future” – A 5-Day Test Drive Event Open to a Diverse Range of Guests

As one of the few test drive events in Vietnam to span five days, “BYD Week – Technology Green Future” welcomed a diverse range of guests from across the country. Attendees included representatives from news agencies and automotive websites, as well as investors, partners, dealers, and potential customers.

Guests had the opportunity to get up close and personal with the BYD SEAL (sedan), BYD DOLPHIN (hatchback), and BYD ATTO 3 (urban SUV). They could test drive and experience these vehicles first-hand, as well as visit the technology exhibition and listen to BYD representatives share insights about their products and new energy solutions. BYD also plans to host a similar test drive event in Northern Vietnam this June.

The introduction of the BYD SEAL, BYD DOLPHIN, and BYD ATTO 3 is set to offer customers more choices, enrich the new energy vehicle market, and promote a greener lifestyle. Additionally, early bird customers who place a deposit for the BYD SEAL, BYD DOLPHIN, or BYD ATTO 3 from June 15 to July 18, 2024, will receive a gift package that includes a handheld charger, a 7 kW wall-mounted charger with free installation, and a power converter, all of which are BYD original products. These customers will also enjoy a range of benefits, such as six years of free 24/7 roadside assistance and standard maintenance, one year of physical damage insurance, attractive loan interest rates of up to 85%, and a cash gift of 10,000,000 VND.

Mr. Vo Minh Luc, Executive Director of BYD Vietnam, shared: “BYD Week – Technology Green Future” is another step in our journey to introduce BYD to the Vietnamese market. While our entry into Vietnam may be later than other markets, we have always considered it an important and potential market for BYD outside of China. With a population of over 100 million people, Vietnam has a large number of young consumers who are open to embracing new technologies and have a strong awareness of environmental protection and sustainable development. Our new energy vehicles will contribute to greener transportation options and cleaner energy solutions, ultimately helping to build a more sustainable future. We aim to not just bring a few models to the market but to develop a comprehensive ecosystem with a diverse range of vehicles and segments.”

The World’s No.1 New Energy Vehicle Brand Impresses with the BYD SEAL, BYD DOLPHIN, and BYD ATTO 3

BYD not only masters the technology but also possesses breakthrough “keys” to the three fundamental components of any new energy vehicle: chassis, battery, and powertrain. Equipped with these technologies, the BYD SEAL, BYD DOLPHIN, and BYD ATTO 3 have proven their appeal and earned the trust of customers in many countries. BYD expects these three flagship models to replicate their international successes in the Vietnamese market.

Blade Battery – 29 Years of Experience Creating the World’s Safest Battery: The strength of the blade battery lies not only in its superior energy supply but also in its ability to prevent explosions, deformation, and heat generation. As a result, the blade battery has passed a series of rigorous tests and is recognized as one of the safest batteries in the world, contributing to BYD’s position as a leading new energy vehicle brand in terms of safety.

BYD’s vehicles offer a range of over 400 km on a single full charge, providing customers with a worry-free driving experience for a week in urban areas without the need to frequently locate charging stations. BYD is actively collaborating with partners to develop charging stations appropriately. Many domestic and foreign enterprises are also investing in this field to contribute to the new energy vehicle ecosystem.

e-Platform 3.0 – Exclusive Chassis for Pure Electric Vehicles: This structure maximizes efficiency, safety, and aesthetics. The e-Platform 3.0 not only enhances the performance of BYD’s models but also delivers powerful performance, impressive acceleration, and a smooth and energy-efficient driving experience.

World’s First Mass-Produced 8-in-1 Powertrain: BYD is the first brand in the world to integrate eight major components, including the VCU, BMS, MCU, PDU, DC-DC converter, integrated charger, motor, and transmission, into a single powertrain system. This innovation optimizes space and efficiency while reducing battery consumption and improving energy utilization.

All three models featured in the event are equipped with the safe blade battery technology, the latest e-Platform 3.0, a high-efficiency heat pump system, and a 15.6-inch central touchscreen display that can be rotated for added convenience. The standout model among the trio is the BYD SEAL, one of BYD’s best-selling models globally. It boasts an 8-in-1 electric motor, a unique exterior design with layered U-shaped DRL lighting, and Cell-To-Body technology that integrates the battery into the floor of the vehicle, making it lighter and more aerodynamically efficient. Meanwhile, the BYD DOLPHIN offers a spacious cargo area and flexible rear seats that can be folded down to maximize luggage capacity to 1,310 liters.

Pioneering a Greener Path with New Energy Solutions

According to data from Statista, a German market research company, BYD led the world in new energy vehicle sales in 2023, with over 3 million vehicles sold globally, representing a 61.9% growth compared to 2022. BYD’s success stems from its strengths in battery technology and its vast team of over 102,800 engineers dedicated to research and design. BYD also focuses on clean energy solutions, including electric urban transportation and renewable energy storage, with the goal of electrifying public transportation, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and “Cooling the Earth by 1°C”. BYD strives to increase the adoption of zero-emission vehicles, positively impacting communities and the environment, and contributing to the sustainable development goals of Vietnam and the world.
