Warren Buffett-backed BYD is just over 3,000 cars away from overtaking Tesla as the world’s biggest seller of EV cars
Tesla’s disappointing third-quarter deliveries are giving its closest rival—BYD, the Chinese EV giant backed by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway—an opportunity to swipe top place in the electric car rankings.
Tesla sold 435,000 electric cars last quarter, while BYD sold 431,000 battery-powered electric cars over the same period, leaving a gap of just over 3,000 between the two firms, according to calculations from Bloomberg.
That small difference means that BYD could be close to overtaking its U.S.-based rival when it comes to sales of battery electric cars (BEVs), a huge jump for a company that Tesla CEO Elon Musk once derided as a joke over a decade ago.
BYD is already far ahead when it coms to total sales. Including hybrids, BYD sold over 800,000 cars last quarter, almost twice as much as Tesla, according to Bloomberg.
The Chinese company sold 1.8 million cars last year, over 911,000 of which were BEVs. Tesla, which only sells BEVs, sold 1.3 million cars.
Tesla disappoints
Tesla’s third-quarter sales came in far below analyst expectations. Sales declined by 6.7% from the previous quarter, the first quarterly drop since early 2020.
Musk had previously warned that planned upgrades to manufacturing plants around the world may lead to lower deliveries for the rest of the year.
Yet the company is also facing sluggish demand, pushing it to launch aggressive price wars in both China and the U.S. On Sunday, Tesla announced a new version of its Model Y car for the Chinese market, offering slightly faster acceleration and new ambient lighting at no additional cost from the base model.
