BYD

BYD Company Limited

BYD was founded in 1995 by Wang Chuanfu as a rechargeable battery manufacturer in Shenzhen, scaling rapidly to become the world's largest supplier of lithium-ion cells to phone makers. The 2003 acquisition of bankrupt Chinese carmaker Tsinchuan Automobile created BYD Auto. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway took a 10% stake in 2008, validating the EV thesis years before the market caught up.
