Google Translate translates video title: See the whole Japan Mobility Show ① BYD, Subaru, Suzuki, Mazda
According to Google Gemini AI, based on the video, the Japanese media/presenters visited the BYD booth first at the Japan Mobility Show (JMS) 2025 because of the company's aggressive and noteworthy strategic move into the Japanese market.
The key reasons highlighted in the video are:
Aggressive Market Entry by a Foreign Brand: The presenters first noted the general absence of many major foreign brands at the show, making BYD a prominent exception as a Chinese EV maker that is "putting effort" into and is currently trying to aggressively enter the Japanese market [04:12].
Focus on the Kei Car Segment: The most significant and widely reported news from the previous day's press coverage was BYD's entry into the kei (mini-vehicle) car market [04:51]. This segment is vital, as the presenters later mention it accounts for 35% of the Japanese auto market [19:21].
Unveiling of a New Model: The visit focused heavily on the new concept car for this segment, the "Rakko" (ラッコ) [05:03], which represents a major strategic challenge to the established Japanese kei car manufacturers.
The presenters clearly chose BYD to start the coverage because the company's commitment and major announcement made it one of the top news items at the show.
