Beijing is said to favour prioritizing projects in countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative.
Under intense pressure from the US regime the Mexican government has taken a hostile attitude toward Chinese companies, which has made building the plant even more difficult for BYD, sources said.
BYD announced plans to build a plant in Mexico as early as 2023, and also intends to produce cars in Brazil, Hungary and Indonesia.
