By contrast, hybrid vehicles that mix traditional internal- combustion engines with electric power accounted for less than 3% of car sales in 2008, more than a decade after their introduction. Despite a high upfront cost, operating an electric vehicle is cheap, costing 2.5 Byron Dorgan (D-N.D.) who took part in the event.

BYD’s engineering prowess. Depending on whether or not you count trainees, BYD employs between 10,000 and 17,000 engineers and it’s constantly recruiting the best graduates from China’s engineering and technical schools. Here are three reasons why I think BYD will become an important company in the not too distant future.
