BYD Cars Philippines, a subsidiary of ACMobility, has kicked off 2025 with strong momentum, opening nine new dealerships across the country. Covering strategic locations in Metro Manila, Southern Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao, these new facilities underscore BYD’s commitment to making electric mobility more accessible to Filipinos.
In just the first two months of the year, BYD also broke ground on three additional dealerships, reinforcing its expansion strategy. By the end of 2025, the brand will have 77 dealerships nationwide, giving more Filipinos access to its growing lineup of new energy vehicles (NEVs).
“We are excited to see the continued growth of BYD in the Philippines as it expands its presence across the nation,” said Bob Palanca, Managing Director of BYD Cars Philippines. “Both ACMobility and BYD are committed to empowering Filipinos by providing access to innovative transportation solutions that support a sustainable, forward-thinking future.”
Expanding in Metro Manila and Southern Luzon
Six of the new dealerships are located in Metro Manila and Southern Luzon:
Strengthening Presence in Visayas and Mindanao
New Dealerships Breaking Ground
In February 2025, BYD broke ground on new dealerships in Baliwag, Carmona, and Dasmariñas. Dasmariñas will also offer three AC chargers and one DC fast charger. Earlier, a groundbreaking in Nueva Ecija and a partnership with SEAelectric Philippines Inc. in La Union further emphasized BYD’s goal of reaching underserved areas and promoting sustainable mobility.
With 29 operational dealerships as of Q1 2025, BYD is rapidly building a robust national network.
“We’re incredibly excited to open these new dealerships across the Philippines and bring the BYD brand closer to more Filipinos nationwide,” added Palanca. “This expansion allows us to showcase our innovative electric and hybrid vehicles to more regions, offering customers more opportunities to switch to electrified mobility.”
Recognized by Philippine Motoring Media
BYD’s expanding local presence is matched by growing recognition from the motoring press. In early 2025, BYD received several prestigious local awards for its vehicles and its overall brand performance:
