Top 5 Chinese EVs for Uzbekistan in 2026
Chinese EVs took over the Uzbek market for good reasons: zero import duty (since 2019), cheap overnight charging, and mature tech. But there are dozens of models and it's easy to overpay. We picked five that genuinely make sense for Tashkent conditions — on price, range and parts availability. Prices are a Tez Motors guide; calculate the exact landed cost in the calculator.
1. BYD Seal — the Tesla Model 3 rival (from $24,900)
A rear- or all-wheel-drive sedan on the e-Platform 3.0 with the cell-to-body Blade battery. Range is about 550–650 km (CLTC) depending on version. The best pick if you want a premium sedan without the premium price.
2. BYD Dolphin — the most affordable city EV (from $14,900)
A compact city hatchback: ~340–420 km range, cheap upkeep, ideal as a family second car or for taxi work. The lowest cost of ownership on this list.
3. Xiaomi SU7 — the tech flagship (from $42,900)
A sedan with the Xiaomi ecosystem, strong hardware and 700+ km range on top versions. For buyers who want a "gadget on wheels" and status. The SU7 Ultra is in a different league on performance.
4. Zeekr 007 / Zeekr X — the premium segment
The Zeekr 007 is a smart electric sedan with a claimed range up to ~870 km (CLTC); the Zeekr X is a compact premium city crossover. Premium finish and 800V fast charging. Prices on request — brought in to order.
5. BYD Atto 3 (Yuan Plus) — the global bestseller
The compact crossover that made BYD a global player: ~420–510 km range, a roomy cabin and a well-earned reliability reputation. A universal "first EV" for a family.
What clearance adds
All EVs have 0% duty and excise, but you pay 12% VAT and the recycling fee (120 BHM, about $3,900 for a new car). On a $25,000 sedan, clearance adds roughly $7,000. Full breakdown in our EV & hybrid customs guide.
How to choose
- Budget under $20,000 → BYD Dolphin.
- Family all-rounder → BYD Atto 3 or BYD Seal.
- Tech and status → Xiaomi SU7 or Zeekr.
