* An analysis by UBS established that it costs less for Chinese EVs to export to Europe than manufacture locally. '''The analysis also established that it would cost BYD $10,500 (€ 9,500) less to produce its SEAL in China than a Volkswagen ID.3 in Europe. Still, they concluded that that BYD will still be able to achieve a 25% cost advantage by producing in Europe thanks to its vertically integrated supply chain. UBS pointed out that BYD makes 75% of its auto parts internally'''<ref>https://technode.com/2023/09/06/byds-manufacturing-costs-in-eu-could-be-25-lower-than-rivals-ubs/</ref>. | * An analysis by UBS established that it costs less for Chinese EVs to export to Europe than manufacture locally.
