BYD Cars Philippines has sold 28,399 units from January to August 2026. This eight-month performance represents a 99 percent year-on-year increase, and has already carried the brand past its full-year 2025 total (26,122 units) a full four months ahead of schedule. In August alone, BYD sold 4,682 units.
The numbers in August reflect the brand’s strong momentum this year. Part of which included a record-setting April 2026, when BYD Cars Philippines posted its highest-ever monthly sales figure of 5,730 units, up 258 percent year-on-year from April 2025.
Much of this growth has been powered by BYD’s plug-in hybrid technology. From January to August 2026, the brand sold 22,555 DM-i vehicles, a 95 percent year-on-year increase from 11,542 units in the same period last year. The BYD Sealion 6 DM-i leads this segment, and also stands as the brand’s best-selling model overall with 7,759 units sold, accounting for 27 percent of total company sales. The BYD eMAX 9 DM-i has also contributed strongly to this category with 2,512 units sold year-to-date as of August.
Meanwhile, BYD’s fully electric lineup has also seen triple-digit growth. Battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales reached 5,844 units from January to August 2026, up 115 percent from 2,720 units in the same period in 2025. The BYD eMAX 7 led this segment as the top-selling BEV, with 1,975 units sold, representing 34 percent of the brand’s total BEV sales for the period.
“The market’s response to our best-selling models, like the BYD Sealion 6 DM-i, the eMAX 9 DM-i and the eMAX 7 BEV, and our achievement of crossing our full-year 2025 sales is proof that electric vehicles have entered the mainstream in the Philippines,” said Bob Palanca, Managing Director of BYD Cars Philippines. “Filipino consumers are choosing BYD because our vehicles deliver what matters most: innovation, practicality, reliability, and lower ownership costs without compromise. As electric mobility continues to accelerate across the country, BYD is proud to lead the shift, and we remain committed to bring more world-class electric and plug-in hybrid technologies to Filipino drivers.”
This global performance aligns with BYD’s broader success, with the brand recording 440,293 in worldwide NEV sales for August 2026.
This growth trajectory also has gone hand in hand with the continued expansion of BYD’s dealership network, which now stands at 81 dealerships nationwide, bringing sales and after-sales support closer to customers in more cities and provinces across the Philippines.
All this bullshit claims
ReplyDeleteLTO should just release actual registered units for all brands
If Ayala reports this kind of increase in sales then shareholders expect that to reflect sa next earnings call. BIR expects taxes to double if sales double. Dealerships (who are independent businesses that rely on those sales) will also call out bullshit if their own sales don't add up.
DeleteYou seem so angry and think that accountability apparently can't exist.
Ayan na, asan na nga pala yung brand nag sasabi #1 sila sa PHEV and #1 sila sa BEV? Hello?
