BYD Targets 20,000 Stations in China by 2026

BYD plans to continue accelerating the expansion of its Flash Charging network, targeting 20,000 stations across China by the end of 2026. The company also intends to expand the network internationally, with plans to establish 6,000 Flash Charging stations overseas. Deployments have already begun across Europe, the Americas, and other international markets, indicating that BYD is positioning Flash Charging as a broader charging infrastructure strategy rather than a network limited to its domestic market.
