Shanghai (Gasgoo)- On August 27, 2025, BYD officially announced its entry into the Argentine market, marking both a commitment to supporting the country's transition to electric mobility and a milestone in the broader shift of its automotive sector toward greener and smarter technologies.

Deng Yuan, BYD's Country Manager for Argentina, described the nation as a pivotal hub in the company's regional expansion and underscored its aim to bring innovative, safe, and environmentally responsible mobility solutions at competitive prices to local consumers.

As part of its market launch, BYD plans to introduce a range of energy-efficient, zero-emission models featuring advanced design while simultaneously investing in charging infrastructure. The company intends to work with local stakeholders in the energy and automotive sectors to build strategic partnerships. Beyond strengthening its global sustainability push, the move is expected to bring Argentina access to cutting-edge EV technologies and industry know-how, helping the country reduce transport-related emissions, diversify its energy mix, and accelerate the development of its domestic new energy vehicle supply chain.

From today, BYD has opened its first round of exclusive presales in Argentina, starting with three vehicle models: the Yuan UP, Song PRO DM-i, and Seagull. Positioning Argentina as a key anchor for its South American strategy, the company aims to expand its regional presence and collaborate with local partners to advance a new era of green mobility.
