The signing ceremony was attended by Shenzhen Mayor Qin Weizhong and BYD Chairman and President Wang Chuanfu, indicating the importance both attach to the project.

At a time when its new energy vehicle sales are growing rapidly, BYD is actively expanding its parts production capacity.

The company signed an investment cooperation agreement with Changchun Municipal Government of Jilin Province in northeast China and FAW Group on Wednesday on July 15 for a new energy power battery project, which will establish a power battery production base in Changchun.

BYD sold 57,410 vehicles in July, with cumulative sales of 304,099 units this year, up 60.04 percent year-on-year.

BYD’s new energy vehicle sales in July were 50,492 units, and the cumulative sales this year were 20,507 units, up 170.62 percent year-on-year.
