According to Electric Home, on July 31, BYD announced a multi-year strategic partnership with Uber, an international mobile travel technology company, to introduce 100,000 new BYD electric vehicles in key markets around the world to further expand the electric vehicle lineup on the Uber platform. The cooperation will start in Europe and Latin America and gradually expand to the Middle East, Australia, New Zealand and other regions.


“Both Uber and BYD are committed to creating a cleaner, greener world through innovation, and I’m excited to work together toward that future,” said BYD Chairman and President Wang Chuanfu.

“As the largest agreement of its kind, we’re excited about the many benefits this partnership will bring to drivers, riders, and cities,” said Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber CEO. “When Uber drivers switch to an electric vehicle, they can save up to four times more on emissions costs than the average driver simply because they’re on the road more. Many riders have also told us that their first EV ride was an Uber trip, and we’re excited to help demonstrate the benefits of electric vehicles to more people around the world.”

Uber was founded in Silicon Valley in 2009 and listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2019. It is worth mentioning that BYD has been accelerating its overseas market expansion in recent years. So far, BYD's new energy vehicles have been sold in more than 80 countries and regions around the world.
