In a landmark step towards strengthening its international supply chain, Chinese electric vehicle (EV) giant BYD delivered its fourth and largest vehicle carrier ship in Yizheng, Jiangsu Province, on Tuesday. The vessel is now the world’s largest cargo ship specifically designed for vehicles, signaling BYD’s commitment to expanding its global reach and export efficiency, according to Xinhua.
A Strategic Maritime Move
The new vessel forms part of BYD’s long-term strategy to enhance logistical self-sufficiency and reduce reliance on third-party shipping providers. As the company scales up its global EV exports, the addition of this advanced carrier will play a critical role in ensuring timely and cost-effective deliveries across continents.

The launch of the fourth carrier not only reflects BYD’s rapid growth in vehicle production and international demand but also underscores China’s ambitions to lead the global EV supply chain, both in manufacturing and maritime logistics. The vessel is expected to support exports to Europe, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and other high-growth markets.
This maritime advancement highlights how BYD continues to integrate vertically across its value chain—from batteries and vehicle production to ocean freight. As global demand for electric vehicles surges, BYD’s logistical capacity enhancements are poised to give it a major competitive edge in the international market.
