Summary
BYD’s Aussie car fiasco: Over 1,200 buyers got vehicles with older build dates than advertised—2025 models labeled as 2026. No intent to deceive, says BYD, but they’re offering refunds and the chance to buy a new car. One customer got just $1,100—his delivery fee—as compensation, sparking outrage online. The ACCC is stepping in, reminding consumers their rights are protected and urging companies to fix the mess. This isn’t just a paperwork glitch—it’s a major trust issue for BYD and its customers.
