![]() ![]() Slide in/ Slide out of the battery from the car looks like a convenient approach if fully charged standardized batteries can be rented in future.īattery and Auto manufacturers should seriously look into standardizing the form factor of batteries and their interfaces to connect the battery to the car. The flat blade design looks like a perfect form factor for quickly replacing/sliding out the battery at a battery station during a long drive when it runs out of power and quickly replacing it/sliding in with a fully charged battery rather than plugging to a charger and waiting for it to re-charge for hours. The new model will lead the brand’s Dynasty Family, boasting a cruising range of 605 kilometers and an acceleration of 0 to 100km/h in just 3.9 seconds, said the company. The Han EV, BYD’s flagship sedan model slated for launch this June, will come equipped with the Blade Battery. He added that BYD will gladly share and work with global partners to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes for all industry players. "None of these resulted in a fire or explosion," BYD pointed out.Īccording to He Long, Vice President of BYD and Chairman of FinDreams Battery, many vehicle brands are in discussion with the comapny about partnerships based on the technology of the Blade Battery. "Under the same conditions, a ternary lithium battery exceeded 500☌ and violently burned, and while a conventional lithium iron phosphate block battery did not openly emit flames or smoke, its surface temperature reached dangerous temperatures of 200 to 400☌," BYD said adding this implies that EVs equipped with the Blade Battery would be far less susceptible to catching fire – even when they are severely damaged.īesides, BYD also stated that the Blade Battery also passed other extreme test conditions, such as being crushed, bent, being heated in a furnace to 300☌ and overcharged by 260 percent. "In terms of battery safety and energy density, BYD’s Blade Battery has obvious advantages," said Professor Ouyang Minggao, Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Professor at Tsinghua University.ĭue to its optimized battery pack structure, the space utilization of the battery pack is increased by over 50 percent compared to conventional lithium iron phosphate block batteries, claims BYD.īYD further highlighted that while undergoing nail penetration tests, the Blade Battery emitted neither smoke nor fire after being penetrated, and its surface temperature only reached 30 to 60☌. The company unveiled its new battery at an online event themed “The Blade Battery – Unsheathed to Safeguard the World”.Īccording to the company statement, Wang Chuanfu, BYD Chairman and President, said that the Blade Battery reflects BYD’s determination to resolve issues in battery safety while also redefining safety standards for the entire industry. ![]() Shenzhen-based electric carmaker BYD has officially launched a new blade-shaped battery to mitigate concerns about battery safety in electric vehicles. ![]()
