BYD appoints dealer in Netherlands for EV truck and van products25 October 2021

7.5 tonne BYD ETM6

BYD has appointed Bluekens EV B.V. as the first dealer in sales and aftersales services in the Netherlands for its range of full-electric vans and trucks up to 12 tonnes. The Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer’s European base is also in Netherlands.

In the UK, BYD has a partnership with bus OEM Alexander Dennis.

Bluekens EV is part of the Volvo and Renault dealer Bluekens Group. It says it will offer charging solutions, fleet management, and complete leasing solutions to the customers in the southern and western Netherlands.

BYD is a leading supplier of electric buses across Europe with over 2,000 eBuses delivered or on order. Additionally, BYD electric forklifts range can be found in over 11 countries in 50 specialist dealers which assures a comprehensive after-sales service.

“BYD is a valuable addition to the Dutch market in many ways,” says Gert-Jan Jonker, General Manager of Bluekens EV. “The distinctive vans and trucks, for example the 7.5 tonne BYD ETM6, are especially efficient for the activities of retailers, post and parcel companies and logistic service providers. BYD’s battery technology has proven itself already over the past years. We are proud to be the first partner of BYD eTrucks in the Netherlands.”

In the Netherlands, Top Delivery Services (TDS) and HAVI Logistics are the first strategic customers who have recently started to drive BYD ETM6 eTrucks.

Bluekens Group and BYD started working together in 2007 for BYD’s market-leading range of eBuses.
