The land agreement follows a set of investment commitments approved by Thailand's Board of Investment in August, including BYD's 17.9 billion baht ($491 million) electric vehicle production project.

On October 10, BYD, together with its local partner Rêver Automotive, launched the Atto 3 in Thailand, with sales of the model officially starting in November.

BYD held a delivery ceremony on March 10 for the 9,999th and 10,000th Atto 3, its first electric SUV based on the e-Platform 3.0 platform offered in Thailand.

Notably, the deliveries appear to be wholesale sales, that is, sales delivered to local dealers.

By the end of January, the Atto 3 had 1,352 registrations in Thailand, accounting for 8 percent of the 16,672 registrations of all pure electric vehicles in the country, according to BYD.

By the end of February, 3,000 BYD Atto 3 units were registered in Thailand, according to the company.

In addition to BYD, another Chinese electric vehicle company, Neta, began construction of a plant in Thailand on March 10, although it is smaller, with an annual capacity of 20,000 units.

BYD China Denza Denza N7 Electric eMobility eV Regulatory Filing

Regulatory filing: Here are core specs for BYD’s Denza brand’s new SUV, Denza N7

The Denza N7 will be available in single- and dual-motor versions, with an option for LiDARs, which are set on both sides of the front bumper.

BYDDY.US | 1211.HK

The Denza N7, a new SUV from 's premium new energy vehicle (NEV) brand Denza, has appeared on a regulatory filing list, after the brand began warming up for the model earlier this week.

China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) today announced the latest batch of models that will be allowed to be sold in China, and the Denza N7 is included in the list.

The public can submit their feedback on the list between March 9 and March 15. Entry into the catalog is the last major regulatory process before a model is allowed to be sold in China.

The Denza N7 is available in four versions, including two single-motor versions and two dual-motor versions, the former with a motor with peak power of 230 kW and the latter with an additional motor with peak power of 160 kW.

The vehicle measures 4,860 mm in length, 1,935 mm in width and 1,602 mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2,940 mm. It can reach a top speed of 180 km/h.

The Denza N7 will be powered by lithium iron phosphate batteries from BYD's battery division, FinDreams Battery.

It will be offered with the LiDARs, which are set on both sides of the front bumper, similar to the setup of the G9.

On December 20, Zhao Changjiang, general manager of Denza's sales division, shared six spy photos of the SUV on Weibo, showing what the model could look like.

In the comments section of that Weibo, Zhao said the SUV is aimed at capturing the market for traditional internal combustion engine cars priced around 400,000 yuan ($57,440).

The model's exterior restores much of the design of Denza's concept car INCEPTION, which was unveiled at the Chengdu auto show on August 26, 2022.

Denza's previously announced 2023 new vehicle plan shows that it will release two new vehicles this year, the Denza N7, a five-seat midsize SUV, and the Denza N8, a midsize SUV with six and seven-seat layouts.

Denza was established in February 2011 as a joint venture between BYD and Daimler, with each of them holding a 50 percent stake at the time. Last year, BYD's stake in Denza was increased to 90 percent.

Denza's only model currently on sale, the D9 MPV, went on sale on August 23, 2022, with deliveries starting October 26.

The brand sold 7,325 vehicles in February, up 13.76 percent from 6,439 in January, according to figures it announced earlier this month.
