BYD India has announced a change in its management with Rajeev Chauhan taking on the role of Vice President of the Electric Passenger Vehicle Business at BYD India. He takes over from Sanjay Gopalakrishnan as he retires after over three decades in the automobile industry. His last stint saw him set up the EV Passenger Vehicle Business at BYD India.
Rajeev Chauhan has a career spanning over 25 years, working with Honda Cars India and Volvo Car India among other names. He has driven innovative strategies across multiple domains of retail network, customer experience, electrification, direct sales, product development, customer service and digital transformation. His focus on optimising retail capacity with a strong customer orientation has redefined customer experiences, elevated market share, created a highly profitable dealer network and eventually company profitability. He will spearhead the overall electric passenger vehicle business of BYD India.
Rajeev Chauhan, Vice President, Electric Passenger Vehicle Business, BYD India, stated: "The world is at the cusp of a brighter and more sustainable future. And BYD has been playing a stellar role in this progress towards a greener tomorrow. It is my honour to be a part of this journey where we can together make sustainable technologies and sustainable motoring more accessible to Indian consumers.”
Sanjay Gopalakrishnan said, “I consider it my good fortune to have worked, learnt and grown in what I think to be one of the most dynamic and exciting industries in India and the world. I can’t ask for a better way to bow out than to retire at the pinnacle of eco-sensitive, sustainable motoring, which is the blueprint for the future.”
BYD recently maintained its position among the top 10 in the Kantar BrandZ Global Automotive Brands rankings for 2024. This is the second consecutive year that BYD has featured in the top 10 of these prestigious rankings with a brand value exceeding US$10 billion.
