As per a recent report by the Belarusian news agency Office Life, customers in Belarus can buy cars manufactured by the Chinese automaker Geely by paying with crypto.

Geely is a Chinese multinational automotive conglomerate headquartered in Hangzhou, China. Founded as a refrigerator parts company in 1986, the company entered the automotive industry in 1997.
In 2011, Geely joined hands with the Belarusian state-owned company BelAZ to launch a joint venture called BelGee to manufacture cars in the Eastern European country.
In the capital city of Minsk, a car dealership called Tochka has collaborated with a local licensed crypto platform, WhiteBird, to allow car buyers to pay in crypto.
Whether a buyer is purchasing a Geely or a Belgee car, the option to pay in crypto is available for all the models.
A representative from Tochka told Office Life that they launched the initiative to meet the demands of the modern generation of car drivers.
"This is not an experiment or a promotion but a full-fledged service operating within the legal framework of Belarus."

How to purchase Geely cars with crypto payments
Since the crypto payments are processed online, buyers don't even need to visit the Tochka office to make payments.
Get in touch with the dealer to confirm the car model's price in Belarusian rubles. Next, a WhiteBird representative calls you who helps customers make the crypto payments — that too at a preferential rate set specifically for the project.
Once the payment is finalized, the car is delivered to any address in the Belarusian territory. If you would like, you can also visit the showroom to pick up the car.
The dealership is expecting to sell up to 10% of the cars with crypto payments.
