A new electric vehicle battery factory in Hungary is considering existing production sites in Spain and France as potential additions, according to BYD’s special adviser for Europe. The move could expand the company’s manufacturing footprint in the region, leveraging existing infrastructure to support growing demand. Industry analysts suggest such a strategy may strengthen BYD’s supply chain and production capacity ahead of Europe’s push for sustainable automotive technologies. The development signals a broader shift in how global automakers are positioning themselves within the continent’s evolving energy and transportation sectors.
Existing plants in Spain and France are candidates to be added to a new factory in Hungary, Alfredo Altavilla, BYD's special adviser for Europe, said.
