Yes, this is positively covered in Brazil from what I can see.
Also BYD has just shipped 700 cars to Brazil. Expecting 3000 deliveries this year.
Also Seal & dolphin will land in Brazil this year most likely

It was because they knew the market well and had great (i think undeserved) reputation.
There are tons of Chinese middle class who want a simple family car in the 10w range. At that price point the Sylphy basically hit all the key wants for these buyers: reliable, low fuel consumption, slightly premium feel brand, and most importantly their large and comfortable interior
It's why BYD is still unable to destroy the Sylphy like it's destroying other SUVs. Other than fuel consumption, Qin is still neck to neck or slightly behind in these other features.
Younger buyers who like the fast acceleration will buy a Qin, while older buyers may still prefer Sylphy for its traditional comfortable interior and its "brand power"
here is a link behind paywall
It should be obvious that BYD wants to build its own charging infrastructure with Shell that uses its solar panels and ESS. BYD wants to make money on these charging stations.
I wrote about it here
#BYD is taking advantage of Shell's desperation for the upcoming 2035 EU fossil fuel car ban. Shell will build its charging network and since it won't national grid as much, BYD gets to sell its own ESS product and solar panels to these new charging stations. Great win for BYD.

Denza D9 likely to get over 10k orders and 10k deliveries this month. Continued huge step forward for this program.
10k/month -> 120k/year. Since they were originally aiming for 300k a year for all of Denza, pretty good to get 40% there with just 1 MPV.

Tesla continues to downgrade its product. If you followed the Chinese social media after the Tesla Investor day, the only thing people got out of that was cost cuts. Needless to say, Tesla brand is in a free fall in China.
Isn't the removal of the ultrasonic sensors going to allow Tesla to go even deeper on price cuts?
Sure their brand may get damaged but if they can shave off, dunno the actual costs, $1000 from their car's price surely that's worth it more when trying to fight for market share by having a cheaper car
Tesla isn't going to go bankrupt. This kind of brand damage is long term. Losing your ability to charge premium long term is a huge problem for a brand.
