In the early morning of May 6, the 2025 Snooker World Championship final came to an end at the Cruzburg Theater in Sheffield, England. Chinese player Zhao Xintong defeated three-time World Championship champion Mark Williams 18:12, becoming the first Chinese and Asian player to win the Snooker World Championships, and the first player to win the World Championships as an amateur player. On this challenging road to winning the championship, BYD SeaLion 07EV (BYDSEALION7) has witnessed every step he has reached his peak. This model, which has recently won the double five-star safety ratings of the European New Car Safety Appraisal Association (EURONCAP) and the Australian New Car Safety Appraisal Association (A-NCAP) has become his best travel partner during training and competition in the UK.

Zhao Xintong is not the only celebrity who chose BYD. Brazilian President Lula used BYD Tang as the official car and took her to attend the G20 summit to show the world its recognition of China's new energy technology. Premier League stars Kyle Walker and Phil Foden, who also come from the sports industry, have successively become owners of BYDSEAL and publicly liked it. Chusovikina, known as the "old ageless legend" of gymnastics, has also become owners of Song PLUSDM-i. In addition, NBA star Ding Weidi bluntly said that she was "fascinated" after testing the U8. The popular international technology blogger Speed ​​Hyperthyroidism also praised the ultimate experience of looking up to U9. From a sports superstar to an industry leader, BYD has won global trust with innovative technology and reliable quality and promoted green changes in the global automotive industry.

In recent years, BYD has gained recognition from global consumers for its safe and high-quality products. In the first quarter of 2025, BYD's pure electric vehicle sales were 416,400, becoming the global pure electric sales champion; at the same time, BYD became the sales champion of all brands in Hong Kong and Singapore, and became the sales champion of new energy in Brazil, Italy, Thailand and Australia. Not long ago, Haiou also won the "2025 World City Car" Award, becoming the first Chinese car brand to win this honor.

The spirit of the championship is not only on the field. As of April 2025, BYD's new energy vehicle footprint has spread to 112 countries and regions around the world. BYD is reshaping the world's automobile industry with China's intelligent manufacturing, opening up unlimited possibilities for green travel for global users.
