BYD NORWAY

On August 12, BYD announced the first Tang EV deliveries in Norway, where BYD is partnering with local distributor RSA, which has more than 40 dealership stores in the country, to provide marketing, sales, after-sales and parts supply services.

Norway is the first stop for BYD passenger cars in the European market, and the company said at the time that it would ship a total of 1,500 Tang EVs to Norway during 2021.

BYD said today that the first batch of BYD Tang all-wheel-drive SUVs recently arrived at RSA dealerships in Norway.

The BYD Tang is available to order through 43 RSA dealerships located in key cities across Norway, providing sales, aftersales, parts and service support to BYD Tang customers throughout the country.  The pure-electric Tang SUV is priced at 599,900 NOK (USD69,093), according to BYD.

The model, which is equipped with a blade battery that claims to have passed the toughest pinprick test in the field of power cell safety, has a combined WLTP range of 400 km and a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 4.6 seconds.

BYD, China's largest maker of NEVs, sold 91,219 NEVs in November, up 242 percent year-on-year and 13 percent from October, according to data it released earlier this month.
