If you follow the electric vehicle industry, you already know that BYD continues to shatter records. But which specific BYD models are selling the most?
In July 2026, BYD delivered 419,200 vehicles across all series (including 411,100 passenger cars). Below is the official series-level sales ranking — a clear picture of where consumer demand is flowing in China’s hyper-competitive NEV market.
BYD July 2026 Sales Ranking (Top 10 by Series/Family)
| Rank | Series / Family | July 2026 Sales (units) | Notes |

| 2 | Sealion Series | 49,057 | Strong mid-size SUV and sedan mix |
| 3 | Song Series (excl. Song PLUS) | 46,110 | Core family SUV line |
| 4 | Seal Series | 40,399 | Sporty sedans and GT variants |
| 5 | Dolphin | 34,910 | Affordable hatchback favorite |
| 6 | Seagull | 27,971 | Entry-level urban mini EV |
| 7 | Fangchengbao Titan 7 | 27,320 | The only off-road NEV brand in the top 10 |
| 8 | Song PLUS | 17,542 | (Note: counted separately from Song series) |

| 10 | Qin Series | 13,117 | Compact sedan stalwart |
Key Insights from the July 2026 Data
1. The Yuan Family Is Unstoppable
With over 83,000 units in a single month, the Yuan PLUS and Yuan UP combined now outsell many entire automakers’ global lineups. This reflects massive demand in the 100,000–150,000 RMB compact EV segment.
2. Ocean Network vs. Dynasty Network
Both major sales networks are well-represented:
- Ocean Network (Sealion, Seal, Dolphin, Seagull) contributes heavily across sedan, hatchback, and SUV segments.
- Dynasty Network (Yuan, Song, Tang, Qin) retains its traditional stronghold with family-oriented buyers.
3. Fangchengbao Breaks Through
The Titan 7 — BYD’s off-road NEV sub-brand model — secured the 7th spot with 27,320 units. This signals growing appetite for premium, lifestyle-oriented electric vehicles beyond mainstream commuters.
4. Premium Brands Are Scaling
While the top 10 is dominated by Dynasty and Ocean networks, BYD’s premium trio (Denza, Yangwang, Fangchengbao) together contributed approximately 60,000 units in July — a significant year-on-year increase.
Important Note on Data Methodology
The ranking above is based on BYD’s official “series/family” aggregation. This means:
- The Yuan Family includes both Yuan PLUS and Yuan UP.
- The Song Series and Song PLUS are reported separately by BYD’s internal classification.
- For breakouts of individual sub-models (e.g., “Qin L” standalone numbers), analysts typically wait for the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) retail data or detailed monthly breakdowns.
As of August 2026, the official public disclosure remains at the family level — but the hierarchy is clear.
What This Means for Global Observers
For international investors, suppliers, and EV enthusiasts:
- BYD’s scale advantage is now visible at the model-series level — the top three families alone delivered over 178,000 units in July.
- The Song PLUS (17,542 units) being counted separately from the broader Song series suggests BYD is strategically managing multiple nameplates within the same segment to avoid cannibalization.
- The rapid rise of the Titan 7 indicates that BYD is successfully expanding beyond commuter EVs into off-road and luxury niches — a direct challenge to traditional off-road brands.
Final Verdict
BYD’s July 2026 sales ranking confirms three trends:
- The Yuan Family is the undisputed volume king.
- Ocean Network models (Sealion, Seal, Dolphin) provide a balanced second line of defense.
- Fangchengbao’s Titan 7 is the dark horse — proving that BYD’s brand diversification strategy is working.
As always, monthly rankings may shift with promotional cycles and production adjustments. But for July 2026, this is the definitive series-level hierarchy.
