BYD Breaks Records in Australia!   According to the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI), BYD sold nearly 2,000 electric vehicles in Australia during May 2024 - a staggering 32% increase from the same period last year.     This growth trajectory is set to accelerate with BYD's upcoming launch of a new hybrid range, including a family SUV and a ute. For a relatively new player in the Australian automotive market, these figures are nothing short of impressive.     The BYD Seal sedan emerged as the star performer, accounting for almost half of the company's May sales. Using Vehicle Logic's Insight platform, we can see that 780 BYD Seals were registered on Australian roads in 2023, representing 0.34% of the OE tyre volume.     The BYD Seal utilises two specific tyre sizes:   🔹235/45R19   🔹225/50R18 Using Insight, we can provide a detailed breakdown of the tyre population for these sizes across all electric vehicles, state by state. This data is invaluable for businesses looking to adapt their inventory and services to the growing EV market. As the automotive landscape rapidly shifts towards electric and hybrid vehicles, staying ahead of market trends is crucial. Vehicle Logic's Insight platform remains an essential tool for businesses navigating these changes, offering up-to-date, granular data on vehicle and tyre trends across Australia. How is your business leveraging such insights to prepare for the evolving demands of the EV market? 

The EV Revolution in Australia The electric vehicle surge is undeniable. With manufacturers like BYD hitting their third-highest Australian sales record for four months straight this June, EVs are no longer just a trend—they're reshaping our roads. As the EV market grows, so does the demand for specialised components. Let's spotlight a newcomer in the EV-specific tyre arena: the MAXXIS VS-EV. Key features of the MAXXIS VS-EV: ▶ Designed for BEVs, PHEVs, and HVs  ▶ New EV-specific tread compound for optimal rolling resistance and increased mileage  ▶ Maximised road contact patch for exceptional braking and extended tread life  ▶ Sound-absorbing foam technology for an extremely quiet ride  ▶ Deep tread ribs and unique sipe shape for optimal wet weather performance  ▶ Wide, asymmetrical shoulder design for excellent high-speed stability Important note: The Maxxis VS-EV is not suitable for internal combustion engine vehicles due to its design for high load and higher operating pressures of EVs. As we navigate this electric future, how is your business adapting to the EV market? #ElectricVehicles #TyreInnovation #AutomotiveIndustry #VehicleLogic
