周日,中国市场管理局(SAMR)宣布,比亚迪已向监管机构报告计划召回近97万辆电动汽车。原因是涉及制造缺陷的转向控制系统可能引发火灾风险。受影响车辆为2022年11月至2023年12月期间在中国生产的比亚迪海豚(Dolphin)和元Plus(Yuan Plus)两款电动车型。

根据中国汽车制造商协会的数据,这两款车在去年共计占了比亚迪总销量的26%。尽管比亚迪此次召回事件较为罕见,在它成长为全球最大的纯电动汽车与插电式混合动力汽车销售商时迅速崛起。

值得注意的是,在2022年,比亚迪曾因电池组存在缺陷导致火灾风险而召回了一小批唐(Tang)型号的插电式混动车型。

比亚迪方面尚未对此事进行回复。SAMR声明中还提到,公司将要求经销商为召回车辆实施实体修复措施。至于受到影响的电动汽车是否涉及出口,声明并未加以说明。

原文摘要:

BYD has informed the Chinese regulator it is recalling nearly 97,000 electric vehicles (EVs) due to a manufacturing fault involving a steering control unit that could lead to fire risks, the market regulator said on Sunday. The Chinese automaker is recalling Dolphin and Yuan Plus EVs manufactured in China between November 2022 and December 2023, according to a statement from the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR). BYD did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The company would ask its dealers to install a physical fix in the recalled cars, the SAMR statement added. It did not elaborate if any of the affected EVs were exported. Dolphin and Yuan Plus were BYD’s two top-selling models in 2023, which in total accounted for 26% of its three million cars sold in the year, according to data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers. The recall is a rare one by BYD of its pure electric and plug-in hybrid cars as the Chinese company grew rapidly to become the world’s biggest seller of such vehicles. It recalled a small batch of Tang plug-in hybrids in 2022 due to a defect in the battery pack that could cause fires.
