BYD will be strengthening its own naval fleet with 10 more car carrier ships, each with a capacity of 9,200 car equivalent units (in English, CEU). If confirmed, the order raises BYD's naval fleet to a significant total, exceeding the 130,000 cars maritime transport capacity mark.
The Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer is investing heavily in building its own fleet of ships to reduce dependence on external shipping companies. This strategy allows BYD to have greater control over the export logistics of its vehicles to international markets.
The new Joinville ships are part of this plan to expand BYD's logistics capacity, which has been increasing its exports globally. The company has been focusing on international markets as a priority for the growth of electric vehicle sales.
With this order, BYD demonstrates its commitment to strengthening the supply chain and distribution of its vehicles, ensuring greater efficiency in maritime transport and autonomy in export logistics.
