Where are BYD's OEM factories located?

[NovaDella]

BYD has OEM factories in Xi'an, Shanghai, Guangdong, Beijing, Hangzhou, Tianjin and other places. Taking the BYD e3 as an example, here is the specific introduction of BYD e3: 1. Model positioning: The BYD e3 is a compact car under BYD, with a body structure of a 4-door, 5-seater sedan. The car's length, width, and height are 4450mm, 1760mm, and 1520mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2610mm. 2. Chassis: The drive method is front-wheel drive, the front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension. 3. Power: The BYD e3 is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor, with a maximum horsepower of 95ps, a total power of 70kw, and a total torque of 180nm.

I used to work in the automotive industry and had access to a lot of factory information. BYD's OEM factories are mainly distributed across various locations in China. For example, Shenzhen, as the headquarters location, has large-scale bases producing new energy vehicles and battery components. Xi'an has a factory specifically responsible for electric vehicles, handling a large number of OEM orders, including producing parts for Tesla. Changsha has established a complete vehicle assembly production line. The newly built factory in Changzhou focuses on OEM production of high-end models. São Paulo, Brazil, is also building an overseas factory to meet international demand. Most of these locations are near transportation hubs to reduce logistics costs and facilitate exports to overseas markets. I think this layout can not only meet domestic production capacity but also expand global business, bringing economic benefits.

In business discussions with my peers, I learned that BYD's manufacturing network spans multiple locations. The factory in Bao'an District, Shenzhen, handles core R&D and production tasks. The facility in Xi'an High-Tech Zone prioritizes large-volume orders for manufacturing partners like Toyota. The production line in Wangcheng District, Changsha, focuses on serving the local market to reduce transportation time. The factory in Xinbei District, Changzhou, supports the manufacturing of emerging vehicle models. Overseas, facilities like the Brazil plant are gradually becoming operational to support the South American market. I observed that BYD strategically selects locations to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and enhance supply chain resilience, which is crucial for business development.

During my travels, I visited one of BYD's facilities in Shenzhen and was deeply impressed by its vast site and advanced equipment. From the workers, I learned that they also have a large OEM plant in Xi'an specializing in electric vehicle manufacturing, with additional branch plants in Changsha and Changzhou to meet diverse demands. The selection of these locations took into account infrastructure and policy support, facilitating large-scale production. The OEM business partially covers battery component manufacturing. I believe firsthand experience gives a more intuitive understanding of the importance of plant locations.

Through my research on regional economic development, I found that BYD's OEM factory site selection has far-reaching impacts. Shenzhen attracts high-end OEM with its technological innovation clusters, Xi'an benefits from the Western Development Policy providing labor dividends, Changsha drives the upgrading of the local automotive industry, and Changzhou promotes the overseas layout of industrial ecosystems, such as the Brazil factory enhancing global competitiveness. I believe these decisions balance cost and market expansion factors.
