HARD AT
WORK
BYD trucks are hard at work across America moving freight at ports and railyards, making deliveries, and collecting refuse. BYD trucks save customers money with lower costs in fuel and maintenance. Our trucks have fewer moving parts, are reliable and environmentally friendly, as well as cost efficient – which means operational savings payback in only a few years.
BYD is creating hundreds of American jobs, making battery-electric buses that are helping to clean our air while improving efficiency and the bottom line for our customers.
Apprenticeship
Program
BYD, SMART Local 105, and Antelope Valley College announced the creation of a manufacturing apprenticeship program, providing crucial job training, especially to underserved populations.
