BYD Co. posted its best month of sales yet for 2025, a further sign the Chinese carmaking juggernaut is on track to hit its full-year target of 5.5 million deliveries.

New-energy vehicle sales for April were 380,089 units, up more than 20% year-on-year, according to a statement Thursday. Of those, passenger cars were 372,615.

Notably, BYD’s battery passenger electric vehicle sales of 195,740 last month topped its plug-in hybrid sales of 176,875, the first time pure EV sales have been in front since early 2024.

BYD is waiting to unleash a suite of new vehicles stacked with smart-driving capabilities, and also, ultra-fast charging technology. The upgrades are designed to bolster the automaker’s sales especially around pure EVs, which have lagged against BYD’s hybrid range after that lineup received a major update last year.

At China’s premium auto exhibition in Shanghai last week, BYD showcased a pipeline of concept autos in the high-end space, with a range of new luxury sport utility vehicles and sport cars.

BYD, whose shares in Hong Kong are up almost 40% this year, has managed to shrug off the risk of tariffs, given it does not sell passenger cars into the US market.
