Global asset finance company DLL has announced a new partnership with BYD Europe that will see it provide the bus manufacturer with financing solutions for electric trucks and buses across Europe.
Under the new agreement, DLL will serve as BYD’s strategic partner as part of its broader European expansion plan, which will see new operations launched in the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Ireland, Poland, and the United Kingdom.
Mike Kinka, President of DLL’s Construction, Transportation, and Industrial business, said:This partnership with BYD represents a major step forward in our eMobility strategy.
By becoming BYD’s preferred funder for trucks, buses, and forklift trucks, we are helping accelerate the adoption of sustainable transport solutions across Europe, pro-actively supporting the transition to reduced emissions fleets.
DLL has already financed a number of BYD buses and trucks during the last year, and will now provide a full suite of comprehensive financing solutions including operational leases, financial leases, and loans.
Stella Li, Executive Vice President of BYD, said:Electric buses and trucks are a key element of BYD’s unique, multi-faceted push towards electric mobility in Europe.
Partnering with DLL will ensure our customers have access to flexible financing options, making the shift to lower-emission fleets easier and more affordable. This collaboration reinforces our long-term commitment to supporting Europe’s green transformation, especially in the public transport and commercial vehicle sectors.
