The US armed forces will turn away BYD vehicles at Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan, starting Monday over concerns that their cameras and sensors could collect sensitive information. The measure applies to vehicles used by base personnel, contractors, commercial entities and taxis. The move follows the US addition of BYD and three other Chinese companies to a list of enterprises it believes are aiding China’s military.
Yonhap reported that the security concern involves cameras and sensors mounted on BYD vehicles that US officials believe could collect and leak sensitive information from the base.
US military officials in Japan could not immediately be reached for confirmation, and BYD did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The US added e-commerce company Alibaba, internet company Baidu and automaker NIO to the list alongside BYD in June.
Alibaba has sued the US government over the list, while China’s foreign ministry has protested that it is discriminatory and unreasonable.

US bans BYD from air base in Japan over security concern, news report says
The US armed forces have banned Chinese carmaker BYD's EVs from an air base in Japan due to security concerns, South Korea's Yonhap news reported on Friday, after Washington put the company on a list of enterprises it believes are aiding China's military.
The following are details of the measure.
* The concern stems from the use of cameras and sensors mounted on the vehicles that the US believes could collect and leak sensitive security related information from the base, Yonhap said, citing US military officials stationed in Japan.
* US military officials in Japan could not immediately be reached for confirmation. BYD did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
* The Kadena Air Base in Okinawa will turn around BYD cars starting on Monday, Yonhap said. Vehicles used by base personnel, contractors, commercial entities and taxis will be affected without exception, Yonhap said.
* In June, the US added BYD along with e-commerce company Alibaba, internet company Baidu and automaker NIO to a list of companies it believes are aiding China's military.
* Alibaba has since sued the US government. China's foreign ministry has protested the list was discriminatory and unreasonable.
从周一开始，美国军方将禁止比亚迪车辆进入位于日本冲绳的嘉手纳空军基地，原因是担心比亚迪车辆的摄像头和传感器可能收集敏感信息。这项措施适用于基地人员、承包商、商业实体和出租车使用的车辆。此前，美国已将比亚迪和其他三家中国公司列入其认为正在协助中国军方的企业名单。
韩联社报道称，安全隐患涉及比亚迪车辆上安装的摄像头和传感器，美国官员认为这些摄像头和传感器可能会收集并泄露基地的敏感信息。
记者未能立即联系到驻日美军官员进行确认，比亚迪方面也未立即回应置评请求。
今年6月，美国将电子商务公司阿里巴巴、互联网公司百度和汽车制造商蔚来汽车以及比亚迪列入制裁名单。
阿里巴巴就该名单起诉了美国政府，而中国外交部则抗议称该名单具有歧视性和不合理性。

据新闻报道，美国以安全担忧为由，禁止比亚迪在日本空军基地服役。
据韩国联合通讯社周五报道，由于安全方面的担忧，美国军方已禁止中国汽车制造商比亚迪的电动汽车进入日本的一个空军基地。此前，华盛顿方面将该公司列入其认为正在协助中国军方的企业名单。
以下是该措施的详细内容。
* 据韩联社援引驻日美军官员的话报道，美方担忧的根源在于车辆上安装的摄像头和传感器，美方认为这些设备可能会收集并泄露基地内敏感的安全相关信息。
* 记者未能立即联系到驻日美军官员以确认此事。比亚迪公司也未立即回应置评请求。
据韩联社报道，冲绳嘉手纳空军基地将于周一起召回比亚迪汽车。基地人员、承包商、商业实体和出租车使用的车辆都将无一例外地受到影响。
* 6 月，美国将比亚迪与电子商务公司阿里巴巴、互联网公司百度和汽车制造商蔚来汽车一起列入其认为正在帮助中国军方的公司名单。
* 此后，阿里巴巴对美国政府提起诉讼。中国外交部抗议称该名单具有歧视性和不合理性。
