According to him, many Ghanaians are only now noticing BYD because its electric vehicles are becoming more visible on the roads.

However, he stressed that the company has existed for decades and built its reputation long before entering the spotlight as a car manufacturer.

Long before producing electric vehicles at scale, the company was heavily involved in manufacturing rechargeable batteries used in laptops, tablets, and mobile phones.

In fact, he noted that many global electronics brands have relied on battery components produced by BYD over the years.

He pointed out that battery technology is the backbone of electric vehicles. So when BYD began producing electric cars, it was not starting from scratch.

The company was building on years of technical experience in energy storage and large-scale production.

According to Premario, this background gives BYD a strong advantage in the electric vehicle space.

BYD manufactured face masks during the pandemic

He also referenced the Chinese EV maker's efforts at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic as another example of the company’s manufacturing strength.

When the world faced severe shortages of protective equipment, BYD reportedly shifted part of its operations to produce nose masks.

Premario’s main point was simple. BYD may feel new to some people because its cars are now entering markets like Ghana more visibly.

But in reality, the company has been operating globally for years, quietly building its expertise.

In his view, understanding BYD’s history helps explain why the brand is growing steadily in the electric vehicle market. It is not just another newcomer testing the waters.

It is a company with deep roots in technology, manufacturing, and innovation, now applying that experience to electric mobility.

For Premario Editions, the story of BYD is not about sudden success. It is about long-term preparation finally becoming visible to the public.
