Start of sales – in September-October of this year
The head of the Astana Group, the BYD distribution company in Kazakhstan, Nurlan Smagulov, told how much the official BYD cars will cost in this country. All prices are not yet available (there will be 10 models, and the official start of sales is only in September-October 2024), but the initial cost has been announced — it is 25 thousand dollars.
«We will also present budget models available to everyone. The price will be very affordable, because there is a common belief that electric cars should be expensive and inaccessible», — told by Nurlan Smagulov.
As reported by «Chinese Cars», sales of BYD in Kazakhstan will start with three models: the Han electric sedan and the Song Plus EV crossover (they have already received OTTS), as well as the plug-in hybrid Song Plus DM -i. In 2025, the range will be replenished with seven more models.
It was previously reported that Li Auto will officially enter the Kazakhstan market: this country will be the first outside of China where Li Auto will have its own representative office.
