Overview
- Roughly 6,000 BYD vehicles were unloaded at the port of Zárate this week, marking a rapid scale‑up of the brand’s local push.
- Three models are currently on sale — Dolphin (Dolphin Mini), Yuan Pro and Song Pro DM‑i — with published prices from $22,990 to $36,990.
- BYD set a mid‑February presentation for the Atto 2 and opened a $500 reservation pre‑sale with undisclosed perks for the first 200 buyers.
- The company previewed additional arrivals, including the Shark hybrid pickup and other SUVs and a sedan, with final specs subject to local homologation.
- BYD targets up to about 60,000 imports in 2026, and executives signaled willingness to bring units beyond the 50,000 duty‑free quota even if that means paying the 35% tariff.
