How BYD's business will be in Argentina
Unlike other Chinese brands, BYD will operate without intermediaries. It won't use importers or local representatives.
"Argentina is a big market, we need to be there ourselves," explained Stella Li, the global vice president of the automaker.

Own dealership network
They are already setting up a network of dealerships in different regions of the country. In key cities, there will be more than one branch.
The demand surprised even the executives. They received multiple emails from Argentine entrepreneurs interested in opening BYD stores.
How many cars are arriving and how much they will cost
This year BYD will bring 1,300 units, within the quota of 50,000 electrified cars that can enter without tariffs.
Song Pro
The sale price would remain below 40 million pesos for the most expensive models, according to preliminary estimates.
Possible investment in infrastructure
BYD doesn't rule out investing in an electric charging network in the country. It would do so in partnership with a local strategic partner. The brand seeks to establish itself strongly and compete on equal terms with brands already positioned in the electric sector.
