After launching its low-cost Seagull EV (Dolphin Mini) in Brazil, starting at around $20,000 (99,800 BRL), BYD is leading the EV sales surge in the country. However, with a new import tax looming, can the Chinese EV maker continue the momentum?

Toyota’s EV sales were up 9% in the first three months of 2024, but only 1,897 Toyota electric vehicles were handed over in the US. That’s only a fraction of Toyota’s over 486,000 total Q1 US sales.
