$1.$ Pricing Strategy for BYD

Factors to Consider:

Explanation:

Competitive Analysis: Review how similarly positioned electric vehicles $($EVs$)$ are priced in Canada. Look at brands like Tesla, Chevrolet, Nissan, and Volkswagen, which have established EV models.

Cost Structure: Consider the production, shipping, import duties, and any subsidies available for EVs in Canada.

Target Market's Purchasing Power: Understand the financial capability and willingness to pay of your identified target market.

Market Positioning: Decide if BYD will compete on price or differentiate based on unique features or superior technology.

Suggested Strategy:

Given the competitive nature of the EV market in Canada and BYD$\text{'}$s position as a newcomer, an introductory pricing strategy could be effective. This can either be:

Penetration Pricing: Setting the price lower than competitors to quickly gain market share. This is risky but can be effective to establish a foothold.

Value$-$Based Pricing: Pricing the product based on the perceived value to the customer relative to other alternatives.
