# China’s BYD overtakes Tesla as world’s top EV seller for the first time. * BYD, a company Elon Musk once dismissed by laughing at their products during a 2011 Bloomberg interview, has overtaken Tesla to be the world’s top EV seller.

The milestone caps an extraordinary rise for BYD, a company Tesla CEO Elon Musk once dismissed by laughing at their products during a 2011 Bloomberg interview. Meanwhile, Tesla said Friday it delivered 1.64 million vehicles in 2025, in line with a company-compiled estimate of 1.6 million vehicle deliveries. Deliveries for Q4 2025 were about 16% lower than the fourth quarter of 2024, when Musk’s EV company reported 495,570 deliveries. Deliveries are the closest approximation of sales reported by Tesla, but are not precisely defined in the company’s shareholder communications. Tesla stock closes at record as investors rally around Musk’s robotaxi hype despite slow EV sales.
