# Sales of used BYDs explode over the last 12 months

Marketcheck, the UK’s most significant source of data on the used UK market, has today published statistics on the growth of the Chinese BYD market.

Following an analysis of sales over the previous 12 months, from October 2024-25, Marketcheck discovered significant growth in the sale of used BYDs across the UK.

The BYD market remains small, with 1,860 sold throughout the previous year, however it has seen substantial growth during this time period.

In October 2024 a total of 33 used BYDs were sold. Within a year this rose by 284 (860%) to 317 last month. Over half (59.73%) were sold between July 2025 and October 2025, with October alone accounting for 17.04%.

Alastair Campbell, Marketcheck UK, commented.

“While still a relatively small part of the used EV market, sales of BYD vehicles have grown at a remarkable pace over the past year. From just 33 units sold in October 2024 to over 300 a year later, this 860% increase signals a sharp rise in consumer interest and early traction for the brand in the UK.

More than half of all used BYD sales in the past 12 months occurred in just the last four months, suggesting the market is now gaining real momentum. As more new BYD models enter the UK market, we expect to see continued growth in second-hand demand.”
