Chinese Byd is building a car factory more than Paris

A huge enterprise is being built in the Celestial Empire in Henan, where they plan to produce a million electric cars and hybrids annually. The total area of ​​the megazavod will be 50 square miles (130 square kilometers), which exceeds the area of ​​Paris by 20% and is comparable to San Francisco. At the stage of construction in the automobile city, 60 thousand people are working.

Byd can afford megaprojects, because last year the revenue of the Chinese company amounted to $ 107 billion, and net profit reached $ 5.44. Judging by the aerial photograph, the auto giant remains in the plus, despite large-scale investments: the car factory is built in eight stages, and after completion of work on the site, more than 200 thousand employees will be involved.

Compared to the BYD plant, Tesla gigafabrics fade, because the area of ​​the area in Nevada (USA) is only 4.9 square miles (12.7 square kilometers). Last year, about 25% of BYD cars were exported, and for the sake of optimal logistics, its own fleet was created with record-capacity ships.

According to preliminary data, they plan to complete the construction of the BYD plant in Henan in 2026. In the new automobile city there will be not only assembly lines: hostels for workers and recreation areas are provided right on the territory. It is still unknown how the working and rest mode will be implemented on the closed area. However, the auto giant already became a defendant in the scandal with “slave” conditions.
