Feel good article for Tesla fanboys. BYD stopped making pure gas vehicles some time ago. Their hybrids are not traditional hybrids, but true electric vehicles that can burn gas as alternate power source. To make Tesla fanboys feel good, statisticians will discount BYD hybrid vehicles when in fact they have almost the same battery capacity as pure EV vehicles. China is the future and BYD is the new King of EV, no matter how journalists try to spin their articles to make Tesla fanboys feel good!
Despite being briefly overtaken by the Chinese from BYD in the number of "new energy vehicles" shipped last quarter, when it comes to purely electric cars Tesla still got the lion's share of sales. Not only that, but it has the bestselling luxury vehicles so far in 2022.
