Can I order a car directly on BYD's official website?
4 Answers
BYD allows customers to order cars directly on its official website or make a purchase appointment through BYD E-Shop. After completion, the official website will assign the order to the nearest direct-operated store based on the address provided. Below is additional information: 1. Introduction: BYD is a Chinese automotive brand established in 1995, primarily producing commercial and household cars as well as batteries. Starting with a team of just over 20 people, it grew into the world's second-largest rechargeable battery manufacturer by 2003, the same year it established BYD Auto. 2. Logo Meaning: The new BYD logo no longer uses the original blue and white color scheme, replacing it with an elliptical shape and incorporating light and shadow elements. Significant changes have been made to the font arrangement and graphic colors, highlighting BYD Auto's innovation, technology, and the essence of corporate culture, infusing the BYD brand with new meaning and vitality.
A couple of days ago, I just helped a friend order a car on BYD's official website, and the process was quite smooth. The homepage of the website has a prominent 'Online Order' entry, and clicking in allows you to choose all available models, from the Dolphin to the Han series, with customizable configurations. The customization interface is particularly detailed, allowing you to select body colors, wheel styles, and even seat materials, with all prices transparent and public. The deposit payment supports Alipay and WeChat, and after payment, you'll receive an order confirmation SMS. The 4S store will then proactively contact you to handle loan and delivery procedures. However, I noticed that ordering on the official website doesn't allow for price negotiations, but it saves the hassle of haggling with salespeople, and the delivery time is about half a month faster than ordering in-store.
I just ordered a Song PLUS on BYD's official website at the end of last year, so let me share my experience. First, find the 'Order Now' button on the official website. After selecting the model, you can see detailed parameters and price differences between different configurations. For example, the range difference between the pure electric version and the hybrid version is clearly marked. The deposit is usually 2,000 yuan, and within 48 hours after the order is generated, customer service will call to verify the information. If there are local subsidy policies, the official website will automatically calculate the discount amount and display it in the order. However, there are two things to note: first, the car must be picked up at the designated dealer, and second, optional configurations cannot be changed after the deposit is paid. It is recommended to visit the 4S store to check the actual car before placing an order.
As someone who frequently researches automakers' sales channels, I can definitively say that BYD's official website supports full-process vehicle ordering. The operation logic resembles online shopping: after selecting a model, you enter a 3D configuration interface where tire size and interior color can be freely matched, with the system calculating the total price in real-time. After payment, the order synchronizes to the 'BYD Auto' app, allowing real-time tracking of production progress and logistics information. Compared to third-party platforms, ordering through the official website offers the advantage of accessing the latest promotional policies - for instance, the recent trade-in subsidy for the Seal model is exclusively available through the official site. However, test drive appointments cannot be made online, so I recommend visiting a physical dealership for a test drive before placing an order.
