- The biggest difference if you kind of look at them
00:36
is kind of where they compete.
00:38
Tesla still kind of has a kind of any style and design
00:42
and there's kind of real desire around that kind of
00:44
Tesla badge and brands now.
00:46
Whereas BYD much more competes on price.
00:49
BYD is really looking to expand globally.
01:03
So in the last couple of years it's started selling cars
01:05
in Europe and it really does have kind of bold ambitions
01:08
to kind of keep growing in Europe.
01:11
It's planning to build a new factory in Hungary
01:12
to make cars locally in the region.
01:15
And it's got plans to sort of become,
01:17
the aim of becoming the biggest kind of car,
01:20
electric car manufacturer in Europe by 2030.
01:23
Which sounds like quite a crazy ambition,
01:26
but actually when you see the kind of speed

01:33
You have Tesla which is a kind of American startup
01:44
and you started just over a decade ago.
01:46
And BYD which is a Chinese firm that only really
01:49
started making cars about 20 years ago.
01:51
And they're competing to be the world's
01:53
biggest EV manufacturer.
01:54
At this point that means that all the big legacy firms
01:57
like Volkswagen and Ford and Honda and Toyota
02:00
are actually playing catch up to these two firms
02:03
that kind of just weren't on their radar
02:05
