The first electric vehicles have been produced in the Jizzakh region of Uzbekistan

At the joint venture BYD Uzbekistan Factory in the Jizzakh region, production of the first electric vehicles has begun. The plant started its operations in January 2024. This is the first stage of a $160 million project capable of producing 50,000 electric vehicles per year.

The joint venture has been equipped with modern industrial infrastructure. Nearly 2 kilometers of railway tracks have been laid. To ensure uninterrupted production, a parts warehouse and a logistics center with capacity for 1,200 containers have been built.

Modern equipment and robotic systems from China have been installed at the plant. The production process is automated. A laboratory has been established for high-precision verification of the geometric dimensions of electric vehicles.

Currently, the Chazor and Song Plus Champion models are being produced on-site. Expansion of the plant's model range is planned in the coming years. As part of the second stage of the project, valued at $300 million, production is planned to increase to 200,000 electric vehicles per year, and as part of the third stage, valued at $500 million, to 500,000 electric vehicles.
