中国电动车巨头比亚迪股份有限公司（场外交易:BYDDY）（场外交易:BYDDF）周二表示，该公司于9月销售了417,603辆新能源乘用车，同比增长近46%，得益于插电混动车销量的大幅增长。
What Happened: Pure EV sales of the Chinese player rose to 164,956 in September, marking a rise of 9% from the corresponding month of last year.
发生了什么：该中国车企的纯电动车销量在9月份上升至164,956辆，同比增长了9%。
Plug-in hybrid passenger vehicle sales in the period rose 86.2% to 252,647 units.
乘用车混合动力车销量在该期间上升了86.2%，达到252,647辆。
The company also sold 1,823 commercial vehicles in September, including 306 buses.
该公司还在9月份销售了1,823辆商用车，其中包括306辆公交车。
Why It Matters: BYD is the biggest rival to American EV giant Tesla Inc. The company took over Tesla as the world's largest BEV seller in the fourth quarter of 2023. However, Tesla took back the crown in the first quarter of 2024 and has been holding on to it since.
为何重要：比亚迪是美国电动车巨头特斯拉公司的主要竞争对手。该公司在2023年第四季度取代特斯拉成为全球最大的纯电动车销售商。然而，特斯拉在2024年第一季度重新夺回桂冠，自那时起一直保持领先地位。
Through the end of the third quarter, BYD sold 443,426 battery-electric vehicles. Tesla, however, is yet to report its delivery numbers for the quarter.
截至第三季度结束，比亚迪销售了443,426辆电池电动车。然而，特斯拉尚未公布该季度的交付数据。
Tech venture capitalist and Deepwater Asset Management Managing Partner Gene Munster expects Tesla's deliveries for the quarter to come at around 452,000 units, trailing Wall Street estimates but higher than the 435,059 units the EV giant delivered in the third quarter of 2023.
科技创投资本家及深水资产管理合伙人吉恩·芒斯特预计特斯拉本季度的交付量约为452,000辆，低于华尔街的预期，但高于该电动车巨头在2023年第三季度交付的435,059辆。
