CATL BYD Other

Korean market researcher SNE Research came out with a January-February 2023 analysis revealing that CATL is still the largest EV battery maker in the world, taking a 33.9% share. BYD follows with 18.2% and LG Energy Solution is third with 13.3%.

It's important to note that CATL's share declined year-over-year from 35.1%, but it still grew significantly in terms of absolute shipments going from 19 GWh in 2022 to 25.5 GWh in 2023.

BYD, on the other hand, secured a bigger market share compared to the same period in 2022, going from 11.3% to 18.2% in January-February 2023. Shipments grew from 6.1GWh to 13.7GWh (122.6% increase). SNE Research points to BYD's vertically integrated supply chain as the main reason for its good performance this year. It supplies batteries to other manufacturers, but also uses them for its in-house vehicles.
