Can you buy BYD EVs in Canada?
Soon. They are in the process of setting up 22 dealers here.

Although it's probably going to be only the high-end models, unless dropping the quotas on Chinese cars becomes part of the trade war.
I hope that's not part of the 50k quota of Chinese made vehicles of which half was gobbled up by Tesla.
I didn't hear about the Tesla part, but I guess it makes sense. If you only can sell a few thousand cars, why wouldn't it be the ones with the largest margin?
Yes, BYD would have been exactly the vehicles in mind when that policy was set up.
