BYD Said to Hire Former Stellantis UK Boss for Europe Expansion.

BYD Co., a Chinese electric vehicle maker, has reportedly hired Maria Grazia Davino, the former UK chief of Stellantis NV, to lead its expansion in Europe. Davino will be responsible for a cluster of European countries for BYD, joining other high-profile executives who have recently made the move from Stellantis to BYD. Despite challenges such as new EU tariffs on EV imports from China, BYD is increasing its presence in Europe with plans to localize production in Hungary and Turkey. This hiring trend follows BYD's recruitment of other former Fiat Chrysler executives for key roles in Europe. [Extracted from the article]
