Hi all,
I am about to buy a BYD Dolphin in Denmark, but I am worried about the availability of maintenance for these cars in the long term. I am particularly worried about the possibility of an economic or more traditional war against China (e.g., if the US wages a war using Taiwan as a proxy, Europe is sure to side with them). That would basically make maintenance impossible and make the car resell value drop to zero.
What are the chances for something like that to happen? Am I worrying too much, or is this something that I should indeed worry about?
Who imports the cars in Denmark? In NL BYD is carried by Louwman which is a huge car importer for Toyota and lots of other brands. Since Louwman sold me the car they are responsible for upholding the service contract even if they stopped selling them at some point. Beyond the contract service guarantees I guess the only issue could be parts but I would be very surprised if you could not even get parts from China anymore…
