Q&A: Automaker BYD Sells Electric, Hybrid Cars

Next, we'd like to address some feedback from our viewers. On Wednesday, we reported that Chinese car maker BYD sold more cars than Tesla in the first half of this year. And that Tesla can no longer be called the world's leading electric vehicle company. Some viewers pointed out that the Chinese company also sells hybrid cars, which run on a mix of gasoline and electricity. While Tesla only sells electric cars. We checked the numbers. And almost half of BYD's sales in the last six months were of hybrid cars.
