The company "Uzavtosanoat" ("Uzavtoprom") signed a memorandum with the largest Chinese manufacturer of electric cars BYD the day before. This was announced by Azizbek Shukurov, Deputy Chairman of the Board of Uzavtosanoat for Economics, on his linkedin account.

According to him, the document was the first step towards the development of electric vehicle production in Uzbekistan.

BYD is one of the world's largest automakers; it produces subcompacts, sedans, including business class, crossovers, hybrid cars, electric cars and electric buses. The company's production bases are located in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Xi'an. Every year, the automotive company's research and development group receives about 500 patents in the field of automotive industry.
