BYD has just reached the significant milestone of 100 dealerships operating in the Brazilian market. This achievement comes in partnership with BYD DVA, the fifth largest group of the brand in Brazil in terms of sales number and the leading BYD seller in the southern region of the country. Officially inaugurated today (May 23rd) in Florianópolis (SC), the new dealership has a prime location: Paschoal Apóstolo Pítsica Street, 4900 - Agronômica neighborhood, known as "Avenida Beiramar" in the capital of Santa Catarina, one of the main access roads, especially for those heading to the city's coastline.

"It is great to see our solid trajectory in Brazil with the inauguration of the hundredth dealership in the country. It is a very significant moment for BYD, as it reflects the growing acceptance of electrification in Brazil. Our brand has come to stay and make history. BYD cars are already circulating from north to south of the country, bringing quality and high technology. We believe in the great potential of the Brazilian market and will continue to invest in the expansion of our dealership network," highlights Tyler Li, president of BYD in Brazil.

Founded in 1972, the DVA group has a significant presence in the automotive market of the state of Santa Catarina and represents many global brands focused on the premium segment. The group's first BYD dealership was inaugurated in October 2022 in the city of Itajaí (SC). In November of the same year, the group opened its second BYD store in São José, in the greater Florianópolis area.

"The DVA Group is happy and very honored to be part of the success that BYD represents. Our partnership started in 2022, in the first phase of selecting dealership groups in Brazil. Now, we are inaugurating the third unit in Santa Catarina, in the city of Florianópolis, marking the hundredth BYD dealership in Brazil. DVA consolidates this success of BYD in the state and, as one of the largest groups in the southern region of Brazil, will open 6 more units, totaling 9 DVA BYD dealerships by the end of the year, bringing the brand closer to Santa Catarina consumers and expanding the DVA Group's business in Santa Catarina," highlights Paulo Toniolo Jr, the company's director.

BYD's goal in Brazil is to reach 250 dealerships – including new stores and those in operation – by the end of the year. Currently, BYD's network consists of 39 groups, 100 active dealerships, and 135 designated ones. "We will continue to surprise the Brazilian market and bring many new developments in 2024. Our upcoming launches will exceed all expectations, with new concepts and BYD's unique technology," concludes Tyler Li.
