BEIJING—Fast-growing car maker BYD is being investigated by local authorities in the central Chinese city of Changsha, after people living near one of the company’s biggest factories raised concerns about its emissions and complained of health problems.
The city’s government said Sunday that it has formed a team to look into gas emissions from BYD’s plant, “in response to the public’s feedback.” It has roped in third-party testing agencies and other relevant experts, according to a statement posted on Chinese social media.
