BYD October New-Energy Vehicle Sales Rise 11% Year Over Year to 490,168

BYD sold 490,168 new-energy vehicles in October, up 11% year over year from 441,706 a year earlier. The increase marked the automaker’s sixth consecutive month of year-over-year sales growth.

The growth streak compares each month’s sales with the same month a year earlier; it does not indicate that sales rose every month.
