What we know about BYD coming to Quebec City
Rollout plan: BYD's Canadian entry is expected to begin in late 2026, prioritising high-EV-adoption metros first. Quebec City is among the priority metros expected in the first wave of Chinese-EV dealer openings. Quebec is part of the first-wave launch region, which shapes when the Sealion 6 is likely to be orderable locally.
Certification & import status: Before any sale, the BYD Sealion 6 must meet Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS). New Chinese-made EVs have also faced a 100% import surtax, which directly affects launch timing and pricing. For the current state of play, read our 2026 Chinese EV tariff guide.
Expected Quebec City pricing: Estimated at $46,000 CAD (around $44,000 after Quebec's $2,000 rebate). See the full BYD Sealion 6 price breakdown for Quebec City.

Can I import a BYD Sealion 6 to Quebec City myself before launch?
