Time: 2025-07-23 Hits: 0

BYD, the world’s leading manufacturer of new energy vehicles (NEVs), and FC Internazionale Milano (Inter Milan), the iconic Italian Serie A football club, today announced a landmark three-year global partnership. This strategic alliance marks BYD’s first deep collaboration with a top-tier club in Europe’s "Big Five" football leagues.

Under the agreement, BYD becomes the Official Global Automotive Partner of Inter Milan. The partnership will leverage the global appeal of both brands to drive innovation and sustainable mobility.

Key elements of the collaboration include:

  1. Exclusive Custom Vehicle: BYD will launch the Sealion 07 Nerazzurri Special Edition, a limited-run model featuring Inter Milan’s iconic blue and black colors. This bespoke vehicle will be available to fans worldwide.

  2. Green Fleet Integration: BYD will provide Inter Milan with a fleet of approximately 70 new energy vehicles, comprising both pure electric and plug-in hybrid models. This will support the club’s daily operations and commitment to reducing its carbon footprint.

  3. Global Fan Engagement: The partnership unlocks access to Inter Milan’s vast global fanbase of over 533 million supporters, including a significant 154 million fans in China. BYD will activate joint marketing campaigns and exclusive experiences to connect with this passionate community.

Strategic Significance:
This move represents a major acceleration in BYD’s global sports marketing strategy. Building on its existing high-profile sponsorships of UEFA EURO 2024™ and CONMEBOL Copa América 2025™, the Inter Milan partnership provides a powerful, year-round platform within elite European football. It significantly enhances BYD’s brand visibility and premium positioning in key international markets, particularly across Europe and Asia-Pacific.
