BYD Receives Record Electric Bus and Taxi Order

BYD-EVsBYD Company Ltd. has received a record-setting order for their electric vehicles from city of Hangzhou, which is situated in east China.

The order for 2,000 long-range, battery-electric transit buses and 1,000 long-range, e6 electric cars was signed this week by the Mayor of Hangzhou, Hongming Zhang and is one of the world’s largest all-electric fleets ever ordered.

“Hangzhou is a beautiful place with a rich history and culture, as well as a great environment for investment. BYD is excited to bring our world-leading electric transportation technologies to Hangzhou and witness the vision and dreams of this leadership team come to pass,” said BYD Ltd founder and Chairman, Wang Chuanfu.

The order is a remarkable achievement for BYD, cementing their place as the world’s preeminent electric-fleet provider. “There is simply no other company that manufactures and delivers fleets of electric cars and electric buses by the thousands! The R&D expertise, manufacturing scale and component spend leverage BYD is gaining from building and delivering these fleets has put us years ahead of any possible competitor,” said BYD America Vice President Micheal Austin who just delivered BYD’s first American-made long-range, electric buses last week to California’s Governor Jerry Brown.

BYD will be making special arrangements to deliver the first 1,000 buses and 500 eTaxis by the end of 2014.

Hangzhou is home to Alibaba, another high-tech Chinese.
