China's leading electric vehicle producer, BYD Automotive, announced its intention to enter the Indonesian automotive market in the first half of 2024. BYD plans to partner with local players to develop the electric vehicle ecosystem in Indonesia.

"Currently, many Chinese automotive players are also entering the Indonesian market. However, this is actually good for Indonesian consumers, who now have many choices from various products and segments. Indonesian consumers can simply choose," said BYD Asia-Pacific Auto Sales Division General Manager Liu Xueliang, as reported by *Katadata* on Thursday, December 21, 2023.

Liu is optimistic that BYD products will be well-received due to Indonesia's strong automotive growth. Furthermore, he believes that BYD's electric vehicles can compete with internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.

Regardless, how are BYD electric vehicle sales performing internationally?

According to the latest data from the environmentally friendly technology website, CleanTechnica, BYD electric vehicles dominated the list of best-selling electric vehicles globally throughout October 2023.

CleanTechnica noted that global electric vehicle sales in October 2023 reached 1.29 million units, a 33% increase year-on-year (YoY).

The Tesla Model Y remained firmly at the top of the list of best-selling electric vehicles worldwide in October 2023, with sales of 78,250 units. Meanwhile, the Tesla Model 3 rose to seventh position from the previous month, with sales of 64,990 units. (Note: There appears to be a discrepancy in the provided data for Tesla Model 3 sales. The text states 64,990 units, while the list shows 32,061 units. The list figure is used in the following translation).

Six BYD electric vehicles made the list of best-selling electric vehicles in October 2023. The BYD Song ranked second with sales of 64,990 units.

Following this were the BYD Yuan Plus with 47,134 units sold, the BYD Qin Plus with 38,288 units, the BYD Seagull with 37,837 units, and the BYD Dolphin with 32,933 units, occupying positions three through six respectively. On the other hand, the BYD Han ranked tenth with sales of 20,457 units.

Other electric vehicles from China, the GAC Aion Y and Aion 5, also made the list of best-selling electric vehicles in October.

Here is a complete list of the top 10 best-selling electric vehicle models worldwide as of October 2023:
