BYD Australia has honoured its best dealerships at its recent 2025 dealer of the year awards.

National dealer of the year honours were won by BYD Sutherland (national dealer of the year, category A); BYD North Lakes (national dealer of the year, category B); and BYD St Marys (national dealer of the year, categories C and D).

BYD Sutherland

The regional dealer of the year awards were won by BYD North Lakes (northern region, QLD and NT); BYD Waverley (southern region, Victoria and Tasmania); BYD Sutherland (eastern region, NSW and ACT); and BYD St Marys (western region, WA and SA).

National awards are grouped into categories based on market size, and regional awards acknowledge standout performance across state territories.

The annual awards are described by BYD Australia as recognising exceptional performance, leadership, and a commitment to delivering outstanding outcomes for customers, based on customer feedback and performance.

BYD Australia chief operating officer Stephen Collins said the awards reflect the strength of the BYD dealer network across Australia and the brand’s commitment to provide a great customer experience.

“We are passionate about delivering our customers the best experience as we continue to grow BYD in Australia,” he said.

“BYD’s dealer of the year awards recognises the teams who set the benchmark within their categories. They are connecting with their local communities and striving for excellence.”

Mr Collins also acknowledged the broader dealer network for its collective contribution to BYD’s continued growth in the Australian market.

“While today we celebrate our highest achievers, we want to thank every dealer across the network for their dedication and commitment over the past year,” he said.

BYD St Marys

“The success of BYD in Australia is built on the strength of this collective effort.”

EV Dealer Group CEO David Smitherman said the recognition of three of its dealerships (Sutherland, North Lakes and St Marys) reflected the group’s focus on consistent execution, strong local engagement and delivering a seamless experience for BYD customers.

“To have all national dealer of the year recipients represented within the EV Dealer Group network is an achievement we are incredibly proud of,” Mr Smitherman said.

“Our teams across Sutherland, North Lakes, and St Marys are deeply embedded in their communities and committed to raising the bar for customer service.

“We remain focused on doing the fundamentals well and supporting the continued growth of BYD across Australia.”
