BYD Cars Opens Along EDSA Balintawak


BYD Cars Philippines opens its newest showroom located along EDSA Balintawak in Quezon City. It is BYD’s first dealership along the bustling gateway to the north and the first of its showrooms to have an operational DC charger.

The inauguration of BYD Balintawak is part of BYD’s plans to establish 33 dealerships in the Philippines by early 2025.

“With this dealership, we are taking a significant step toward making electric vehicles more accessible to consumers in northern Metro Manila,” states Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala, Chief Executive Officer of ACMobility. “Our expanding EV infrastructure and comprehensive lineup of electric mobility options facilitate a smoother transition to electrified mobility, making it easier for everyone to embrace a greener future,” he added.

“As BYD celebrates its 30th Anniversary this year, we are very excited with the addition of BYD Balintawak into our growing dealer network here in the Philippines, shares Aiffy Liu, Country Head of BYD Philippines. “Strong partnerships with ACMobility and our local dealers ensure our brand’s presence in the country while catering to more Filipinos’ desire for safe, practical, and innovative mobility.”

BYD Balintawak features a 500-square meter showroom accommodating six vehicles for display. The facility also has a 1,250-square meter service area and personnel that have been servicing EVs since 2019.

At the new facility, customers can avail of preventive maintenance, general and warranty repairs, and body and paint repairs. Thanks to the dealership’s DC charging station, BYD customers will be offered the convenience of quickly charging their electric vehicles while relaxing in the comfort of the dealership’s customer lounge.

“I am proud to open our doors to a future of clean and innovative transportation, setting new standards in performance and sustainability,” said Liza Yao, President of BYD Balintawak. She adds that this forward-thinking approach is vital as we embrace the transition to electric vehicles and work towards a more sustainable future.

The BYD Balintawak showroom is located at 1294 EDSA, Quezon City. It is open Monday through Saturday from 8 AM to 6 PM and Sundays 9 AM to 5 PM. Service is available Monday through Saturday from 8 AM to 5 PM.

    1. Volkswagen Philippines isn't under pressure with VAG to perform well
      Volkswagen Philippines is already happy selling hundreds of Volkswagen vehicles a year
      VAG isn't interested of establishing its own office and local distribution business in the Philippines as they're aware that Filipinos are mostly into Chinese and Japanese vehicles now and they're in financial problems now.
      VAG never ever considered Philippines as a huge important market for Volkswagen

    2. Happy selling hundreds units a year??? Thats very idiot assumption, Every car brand want to sell as many as possible, its a business after all. VW is a mass brand, they could sell thousands units here a year if not for AC overpricing. VW here made in china but with euro prices

    3. That’s why VW is struggling and on the brink of bankruptcy. They don’t have any sense of urgency, and their partners, like ACM, don’t as well. VAG has no one else to blame but themselves for ending up in the dire situation they find themselves in.

    4. Slim chance Volkswagen will sell thousands of units a year in the Philippines especially Filipinos are so obsessed with 3rd world made in Indonesia and Thailand vehicles produced and sold by Toyota,Nissan,Mitsubishi,Isuzu and the Chinese car brands that are doing very well too.🤣
      Lavida XR the cheapest Volkswagen produced in China is likely gonna be priced at 1.2 Million Pesos if Volkswagen Philippines brings it here 🤣
      Volkswagen Group isn't interested of doing price war at a loss in South East Asian region

    5. too happy, selling well because of AC overpricing

    6. Volkswagen vehicles are usually priced higher
      Volkswagen Philippines is selling T Cross and Tharu at six digit cash discounts
      Stop dreaming already that Volkswagen Philippines is gonna directly compete with the 3rð world poverty spec made in Thailand and Indonesia vehicles of Toyota and Honda in terms of product lineup and pricing
      Volkswagen never ever considered Philippines as a key important market.

    7. Too late the six digits cash discounts, you see it only shows that AC overpriced it. China made kia seltos also selling well because of AC overpricing.

  3. It's a former Hyundai dealership turned BYD dealership
    There's a huge demand for BYD vehicles and it's a great thing that more dealerships with service centers are being established and opened

  4. I am buying a car cash, likely a Brio Wigo or Raize E/G. I venture to research on EV and I am now in consideration of one (a BYD as its representation of itself is decent unlike the others). My lingering worry are the cost of its PM and resale value--if ever it has one. The cheapest repair is still via the roadside auto part shops and mechanics who are well short of electronics. This said, I am discourage to own an EV.

    1. Just to be safe, For now its better for you to buy a raize. Maybe later in 5-7 years you can consider buying an EV
