This company I've never heard of is appearing everywhere in social media. Obviously they're spending big to get attention with advertorials and then social media links to said content.
BYD employ about 570,000 people and by some measures are the largest carmaker in the world. I’d never heard of them either until a couple years ago. They’ve definitely got the cash to put into PR like this. Past couple years Australia started importing their electric cars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BYD_Company
Wow. There ya go. Talk about little old me living in my bubble
All of us not grokking the pace of development in China. 🤭
Here's the summary for the wikipedia article you mentioned in your comment:
BYD Company Limited or BYD (Chinese: 比亚迪; pinyin: Bǐyǎdí) is a publicly listed Chinese conglomerate manufacturing company headquartered in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. It was founded by Wang Chuanfu in February 1995. The company has several major subsidiaries: BYD Auto that produces vehicles, BYD Electronic that produces electronic parts and assembly and FinDreams that produces automotive components.BYD's subsidiary BYD Auto is the world's largest electric vehicle manufacturer, and is a major manufacturer in automobiles (battery electric and hybrid cars, buses, trucks, etc.). Through other subsidiaries, BYD also produces forklifts, solar panels and rechargeable batteries (mobile phone batteries, electric vehicle batteries and bulk storage). Over the past decade, the main business income proportion from the automobile business has remained consistently above 50%.
This was my exact thought as well. China saturated their own market with highly subsidized EVs and now their trying to do the same with every other market.
