The BYD Thailand factory is its first overseas passenger car production base, with a designed annual production capacity of 150,000 units. Currently, the factory has achieved localization production for five models: BYD DOLPHIN, BYD ATTO 3, BYD SEAL 5 DM-i, BYD SEALION 5 DM-i, and BYD SEALION 6 DM-i, and all have obtained the "Made in Thailand" (MiT) certification issued by the Federation of Thai Industries.

In two years since production started, BYD in Thailand has continuously deepened its localization development, with significant results: the factory has cumulatively created over 5,000 job positions, Thai employees account for about 93%, and the local parts procurement ratio has reached 50%. This marks that BYD has deeply integrated into the Thailand automotive industry chain, effectively driving local collaborative development.

At the event, BYD delivered the 130,000th new energy vehicle to Thai consumers, the model being BYD SEALION 5 DM-i. The pre-sale price for the Standard version of this model was announced simultaneously, which will further enrich its DM-i product matrix.
