"The delivery of BYD Shenzhen represents a
crucial step in BYD's globalization strategy. It is more than just a transport
ship, but serves as a 'maritime bridge' connecting Chinese innovation with the
global market," said Wang Junbao, general manager of BYD.
After a naming ceremony in Jiangsu province on April 22, the
ship was set to complete loading operations before setting off to Brazil
BYD now operates three ro-ro ships, as the latest
addition joins BYD Explorer No1, BYD Changzhou and BYD
Hefei. Four vessels sharing BYD Shenzhen's design were ordered in
2022; sister ship BYD Xi'an is already on the water and soon to enter
operation for the vehicle manufacturer.
In the first quarter of 2025, BYD said its ro-ro fleet has
transported over 25,000 units of new energy automobiles to destinations all
over the world.
In 2022, BYD announced an eight-ship, CNY5bn round of car
