BYD is already well ahead of Tesla in electric vehicle sales in China
In June, sales in the Chinese passenger car market reached 1.944 million units, up 22.7% from last June. At the same time, compared with May, when 1.354 million units were sold, sales increased by 43.5%.
New energy light vehicle sales reached 531,000 units, up 130.5% year on year. In May, sales were 360,000 units, a 47.8% increase in sales.
BYD ranked first in new energy vehicle sales with 132,553 vehicles, up 228.8% year-on-year. The second place is occupied by Tesla, which sold 77.9 thousand cars, which is 177% more than in June last year.
Earlier it was reported that BYD, which completely abandoned the production of cars with internal combustion engines last spring, sold more than 641 thousand electric vehicles in the world in the first half of 2022. This allowed it to overtake Tesla and become the world leader in sales of electric vehicles in the first six months.
SAIC-GM-Wuling came in third with over 40,000 vehicles. The well-known companies Geely Automobile, GAC Aian, Chery Automobile and Changan Automobile follow, which took 4th, 5th, 6th and 8th places respectively.
Emerging automakers such as Xiaopeng Automobile, Nezha Automobile, Lili Automobile, Weilai Automobile and Leapmotor performed well, with Great Wall Motors only finishing in 12th place.
In addition, the list includes FAW-Volkswagen and SAIC Volkswagen. These joint car companies have recently begun to enter the market for new energy vehicles, which deserves attention.

Jidu robots will be a generation ahead of Tesla

Baidu’s electric vehicle maker Jidu Auto said it will be one generation ahead of Tesla in terms of autonomous driving technology.
“Our understanding of smart vehicles is that being electric is the semi-final and being smart is the final,” Baidu chief executive Robin Li said yesterday.
Jidu plans to deliver 800,000 of its smart cars (called “robots”) by 2028, as well as launch its second model into mass production in 2024. In June, Jidu unveiled its first Robo-01 concept car, which has no door handles and can be fully controlled by voice control, with the model planned for mass production in 2023.
In addition to equipping the car with Baidu-based autonomous driving software technology, the Jidu “robots” will have two laser rangefinders (lidars) and 12 cameras. At the same time, Tesla does not use lidars.
Tech companies around the world are competing to develop smart cars following Tesla’s success in commercializing electric vehicles. We should see Xiaomi smart car next year.

Toyota Corolla, move over. The Tesla Model Y will be the best-selling car in the world and the first electric car in history to do so.

The Tesla Model Y electric crossover is the best-selling electric vehicle in the world, but it could soon be the best-selling passenger car in all categories.
As early as 2023, it could overtake the Toyota Corolla and become the first electric vehicle in history to top the list of the world’s best-selling passenger cars.
This is reported by Electrek with reference to the head of Tesla, Elon Musk, who announced at the annual meeting of Tesla shareholders that the Tesla Model Y is on its way to becoming the best-selling car in the world. He noted that the electric crossover will become the best-selling car in the world by revenue this year. The company also expects it to become the best-selling car next year once Tesla ramps up production at Gigafactory Texas and Gigafactory Berlin.
Currently, the best-selling car in the world is the Toyota Corolla, with annual sales of about 1,150,000 vehicles.
It is worth recalling that Chinese BYD competes with Tesla, which completely abandoned the production of cars with internal combustion engines and sold more than 641 thousand electric vehicles in the first half of 2022.
