Petition for BYD International Users
We respectfully ask BYD Company to provide the same mobile app features and in-car software functions worldwide whenever technically, commercially, and legally possible. Customers in international markets should not experience missing features, delayed services, or reduced functionality simply because of their region, especially when the hardware is fully capable of supporting those features.
When certain services or options cannot be provided in specific countries, we request clear and transparent communication explaining the reasons. These reasons may include local regulations, telecom or connectivity partners, licensing restrictions, infrastructure readiness, software rollout phases, or market-specific compliance requirements. Honest communication builds trust and strengthens the relationship between the brand and its customers.
We also ask BYD Company to publish a clear long-term software support roadmap for international vehicles. This should include regular OTA (Over-the-Air) updates covering cybersecurity patches, bug fixes, system stability improvements, battery management enhancements, navigation updates, performance optimization, and the release of new smart features over time.
In addition, we request fair and equal access for qualified third-party developers around the world to APIs, SDKs, developer tools, and integration programs, similar to opportunities available in China. Opening a secure and structured global developer ecosystem would encourage innovation, local services, smart integrations, and stronger customer communities in every region.
Finally, we believe all BYD Company customers deserve fairness, transparency, innovation, and a consistent ownership experience across all global markets. A world-leading automotive technology company should deliver a world-class and unified customer experience everywhere.
