Additionally, BYD’s extensive dealer network in Europe will support Ayvens in offering white-label full-service leasing solutions to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and private users, initially launching operations in France, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, with plans to expand to other European markets. The two companies will actively explore further cooperation opportunities in the retail sector, deepening the white-label operational leasing model to drive the electrification of European mobility.
