Silk Road 10,000 Li Journey Concludes Successfully in Singapore, BYD Goes Global with Hardcore Strength

August 25, the 2026 Silk Road 10,000 Li · Inspired Road Event concluded smoothly in Singapore, with all travel services throughout the journey exclusively provided by BYD. Green energy accompanied the Silk Road journey, and this 33-day international trip concluded successfully. The convoy departed from Xi'an, crossed six provinces domestically, passed through Thailand and Malaysia, and finally arrived in Singapore, driving over 10,000 kilometers in total, perfectly completing the land-sea Silk Road route of the new era.

This event closely followed the theme "Technology Towards New · Civilization Towards Core". Coinciding with the 5th anniversary of the establishment of the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and ASEAN, it combined Silk Road cultural exchange, technological interaction, and trade connectivity, vividly showcasing the brand new development outlook of the land-sea linkage of the "Belt and Road". Numerous guests, overseas Chinese compatriots, and media from both home and abroad jointly witnessed this grand event.

The lineup of the convoy for this expedition was very complete, gathering models from BYD's full brand series including Dynasty, Ocean, Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, and Yangwang, smoothly handling complex road conditions such as highways, mountainous areas, and urban congestion. The convoy tested and verified BYD's two core hardcore technologies throughout the journey: the flash charging capability of a 5-minute fast charge and 9 minutes to full charge, completely resolving the anxiety about energy replenishment for long-distance travel. At the same time, the God's Eye assisted driving system iterated and upgraded based on massive amounts of real road condition data, greatly reducing the pressure of long-distance driving and ensuring smooth travel throughout the journey.

In the high-standard Singapore market, BYD's strength has long established a foothold. As of July 2026, it has ranked first in local passenger car sales for 19 consecutive months, with the pure electric market share reaching as high as 40.3%. The local threshold for buying a car is extremely high, and consumers are very cautious when choosing cars. Yet, BYD still leads in sales, and has also laid out 16 offline retail touchpoints, with brand recognition continuing to rise.

Not just in Singapore, this year BYD's overseas market saw a comprehensive breakthrough. From January to July, overseas sales exceeded 970,000 units, surging 76% year-on-year. Products cover more than 120 countries and regions globally, topping the new energy vehicle sales list in multiple countries such as Thailand, Spain, and Brazil. This Silk Road journey was not only an international test drive but also allowed the world to see the technological strength of Chinese new energy brands, empowering China Intelligent Manufacturing to boost global green transportation upgrades.
