We would like to highlight two models – the all-new, all-electric BYD Yuan Plus<\/a> exceeded 10,000 units in March (on top of nearly 3,000 of the previous generation).<\/p>\n The second interesting model is the all-new BYD Destroyer 05 (plug-in hybrid), which entered the market in March, starting with 1,476 units.
