According to a Clean Technica report, electric vehicle sales in China reached 5.47 million units in the first half of 2025.

In the first half of this year, the BYD Song topped the list as the best-selling electric vehicle in China, with sales of 237,464 units.

This figure combines sales of the BYD Song battery electric vehicle (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) models.

"If this podium position holds until the end of the year, the #1 position would be no surprise—as this would be the Song's fourth consecutive year as the best-selling car," wrote Clean Technica in its report on Tuesday (July 22, 2025).

Also from Chinese manufacturers, the next rankings are filled by the Geely Geome Xingyuan and BYD Seagull, which recorded 204,940 units and 174,912 units respectively.

Meanwhile, the American manufacturer, Tesla Model Y, leveraged its peak sales in June 2025 to climb to fourth place with sales of 171,491 units.

Here is a list of the top 10 best-selling electric vehicle models in China in the first half of 2025:

1. BYD Song (BEV+PHEV): 237,464 units
