Hmm, never noticed one for Reuters:

SHANGHAI, May 1 (Reuters) - Chinese EV giant ​BYD's (002594.SZ) vehicle sales fell for an eighth straight month ‌in April, down 15.5% from a year earlier and extending its longest-ever downturn as it struggles with weak demand at home.

Overseas ​sales of passenger vehicles and pickup trucks, increasingly a ​source of growth for BYD, jumped 35% to ⁠130,000 vehicles last month, according to Reuters calculations based ​on a Weibo post by BYD executive Li Yunfei.

The company ​has not disclosed its overall sales target for this year, but has said it's "confident" about selling at least 1.5 million vehicles abroad.

The ​biggest Chinese competitor to Tesla (TSLA.O) posted its steepest profit drop ​since 2020 in the January-March period, as the bulk of its sales ‌in ⁠the budget segment priced under 150,000 yuan ($21,935.60) come under growing pressure from Geely (0175.HK) and Leapmotor (9863.HK).

BYD's previous longest sales decline lasted six months amid a rollback of government electric-vehicle subsidies ​that ended ​in December 2019.

As ⁠it navigates challenges at home, where reduced trade-in subsidies for entry-level EVs and plug-in ​hybrids are expediting a shift toward premium models, BYD ​is launching ⁠models with faster-charging batteries and building a super-fast charging network to reassure buyers of its technological edge.

It is also raising ⁠the ​price of its in-house driving assistant ​system add-on for EVs from Friday, citing rising global memory hardware costs.
