BYD has announced its first price cuts in the Japanese market, slashing the cost of its pure electric vehicles—including the popular Dolphin model—by around 300,000 yen (approximately US$2,000), according to Japanese media reports.
The move comes as Japan’s EV market faces stagnant growth.
BYD aims to boost its market share through more aggressive pricing, signaling a strategic push to gain traction in one of the world’s more cautious EV markets.
