BYD (Build Your Dreams) seems to have built the dream cars of people as it is once again gaining global attention in the automotive world, with its electric vehicles, the Seal and Dolphin, in contention for the 2024 World Car of the Year awards.
The recognition might be a good step for BYD's expansion into the Philippine market. As BYD's sedan, Seal, is a top 10 finalist for the overall title, and the BYD Dolphin hatchback is a top 5 finalist in the World Urban Car category, BYD's entry into the Philippines is more anticipated than ever.
Antonio Zara III, President of Mobility Access Philippines Ventures, Inc. (MAPVI), the exclusive distributor of BYD cars in the country, is excited about this. According to him, he considers it a huge deal that two BYD models are up for the awards, which shows how well BYD is doing as a company and in making new electric cars.
“We proudly welcome the inclusion of the BYD Seal and the Dolphin in the World Car of the Year’s finalists for 2024. To have two models in top contention in this year’s awards is a notable feat, while having three in the original eligibility list speaks volumes about BYD as a brand and as a global leader in the New Energy Vehicle space.”
BYD Cars Philippines offers a range of electric vehicles, including the premium BYD Han sedan and the seven-seat BYD Tang crossover. The carmaker's focus on new technology, safety, and being easy to use fits well with what Filipino car buyers want. The BYD ATTO 3 and Dolphin, already in the Philippines, show off what BYD is all about. More charging stations being set up across the country by Ayala Corporation make these electric cars a good choice for more people in the Philippines.
The World Car Awards, now in its 20th year, is a prestigious event where over 100 motoring journalists from different countries recognize automotive excellence. To qualify for these awards, vehicles must meet certain production and pricing standards and be available in major markets across different continents.
Having two of BYD's cars meet these requirements really shows the quality and service BYD offers. You can check out BYD's quality yourself. Take a look at the cars they have available and get a quote for the one you like.
