BYD (HKG: 1211, OTCMKTS: BYDDY) has slowed plans to build an electric vehicle (EV) plant in Vietnam, a manager of the industrial park where the plant would be located said at a shareholders' meeting on Thursday, according to a report from Reuters.
據路透社報道，比亞迪（HKG：1211，OTCMKTS：BYDY）已放慢在越南建造電動汽車（EV）工廠的計劃，該工廠所在工業園的一位經理在週四的股東大會上表示。
The Vietnamese government said last May that BYD had decided to build a factory to produce and assemble EVs in Phu Tho province in northern Vietnam, where the company already has a factory that makes tablets for Apple, the report noted.
報告指出，越南政府去年5月表示，比亞迪已決定在越南北部的富壽省建造一座生產和組裝電動汽車的工廠，該公司已經在那裏有一家爲蘋果生產平板電腦的工廠。
BYD has slowed down its plans to start construction due to its strategy and a slowdown in the EV market, said Luong Thanh Tung, vice chairman of Gelex Group, the operator of the industrial park where BYD would build the new plant.
比亞迪將建造新工廠的工業園運營商Gelex集團副董事長梁成東表示，由於其戰略和電動汽車市場放緩，比亞迪放慢了開工計劃。
After lengthy negotiations, BYD had agreed to reserve 100 hectares of commercial land at the Phu Ha industrial park for the EV factory, Tung said, according to Reuters.
據路透社報道，董說，經過長時間的談判，比亞迪已同意在富哈工業園爲電動汽車工廠保留100公頃的商業用地。
After delays, the two sides are now looking for the right time to start the project, he told a shareholders' meeting.
他在股東大會上說，在延誤之後，雙方現在正在尋找啓動該項目的合適時機。
Vietnam's auto market is small. Passenger car sales in Vietnam were 214,619 units in 2023, down 25 percent from 2022, according to data from the Vietnam Automobile Manufacturers Association (VAMA).
越南的汽車市場很小。根據越南汽車製造商協會（VAMA）的數據，2023年越南的乘用車銷量爲214,619輛，比2022年下降25％。
BYD's main production and sales take place in China and it has begun building factories in several overseas markets.
比亞迪的主要生產和銷售發生在中國，並已開始在多個海外市場建造工廠。
In May 2023, BYD started construction of its plant in Uzbekistan and started production in January this year. It is also building passenger car plants in Thailand, Hungary, and Brazil.
2023年5月，比亞迪開始在烏茲別克斯坦建設工廠，並於今年1月開始生產。它還在泰國、匈牙利和巴西建設乘用車工廠。
On March 9, Bloomberg reported that BYD sent a delegation to Jalisco, Mexico, to consider building an EV plant there.
3月9日，彭博社報道說，比亞迪派出一個代表團前往墨西哥哈利斯科州，考慮在那裏建造電動汽車工廠。
BYD is targeting overseas sales of 500,000 units in 2024 and 1 million by 2025, the company's chairman and president, Wang Chuanfu, said at an investor event yesterday.
比亞迪董事長兼總裁王傳福昨天在一次投資者活動上表示，比亞迪的目標是在2024年海外銷售50萬輛，到2025年達到100萬輛。
In 2024, BYD's full-year sales are expected to grow more than 20 percent from 2023, Wang said.
王說，到2024年，比亞迪的全年銷售額預計將比2023年增長20％以上。
That means BYD expects to sell more than 3.63 million vehicles globally this year, considering it sold 3,024,417 NEVs in 2023.
這意味着，考慮到比亞迪在2023年售出了3,024,417輛新能源汽車，預計今年將在全球銷售超過363萬輛汽車。
