BYD Cars Philippines, a proud arm of ACMobility, joined forces with Warner Bros. Philippines to bring electric energy to the big screen. As the official mobility partner of the new Superman movie, BYD didn’t just sign on, they soared into the spotlight at the Philippines Fans Day of the Superman World Tour, held at the vibrant SM Mall of Asia Music Hall.
Fans assembled in full force to celebrate the iconic Man of Steel, alongside the film’s stellar cast, director, and producer, all while BYD helped drive the excitement both onstage and behind the scenes.
The partnership kicked off on June 19, 2025, with a sneak peek of the BYD Sealion 5 DM-i, showcased with Superman-themed decals, at the Philippine fan event prior to its Philippine launch. Superman fans and distinguished guests were among the very first in the country to witness the newest sub-compact SUV offering from BYD up close.
Seven additional BYD electric vehicles including the BYD Tang seven-seater SUV, the eMAX 7 seven-seater MPV, and the Seal sedan, transported Warner Bros. executives and crew throughout the Philippine tour.
“This is an exciting partnership that introduces two game changers – a new Superman and the all-new BYD Sealion 5 DM-i,” said Bob Palanca, Managing Director of BYD Cars Philippines. “BYD’s collaboration with Superman celebrates the Super DM-i Technology’s extraordinary performance and innovation, while inspiring hope—values that align perfectly with BYD as a global pioneer in automotive innovation and sustainable mobility,” shared Palanca.
“We are honored to be the official partner of the Superman movie here in the Philippines. At BYD, we believe that true strength isn’t just about power, it’s about using it to protect, uplift, and inspire,” said Adam Hu, Country Head of BYD Philippines. “Just like Superman, BYD is all about pushing boundaries and making a difference. As the Global No. 1 New Energy Vehicle brand, we’re using our strength in innovation to help protect the planet and drive a better, greener future for everyone,” added Hu.
More Superman-themed promotions in the coming months will celebrate the partnership, starting with the BYD Sealion 5 DM-i Superman display on the second floor of SM North EDSA The Block from July 3 to 9, 2025, coinciding with the BYD Tech Tour, which will be present there from July 4 to 6, 2025.
