BYD to produce denser and safer batteries<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n
\n
\n

Chinese electric vehicle OEM BYD presented its latest Blade Battery cells at an online event during which Chairman and President Wang Chuanfu explains how the battery addresses 2 issues: density and safety.<\/span><\/p>\n

Density<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

BYD\u2019s lithium iron phosphate battery is designed in such a way, that they take less space in battery packs. Typically, only 40% of the battery pack contains actual battery cells, whereas BYD\u2019s design allows to increase the battery surface to 60% of the pack, allowing for more EV autonomy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Safety<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

During the presentation, BYD demonstrated the results of a nail penetration test, simulating a car accident with battery damage. The OEM claims that, when punctured, its batteries don\u2019t emit smoke nor fire and stay below 60\u00b0C.<\/span><\/p>\n

First implementation<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

The Blade battery will be used in the BYD Han, a handsome 4-door sedan said to launch in June 2020. The Han will have a range of 605 km NEDC (probably less in reality) and do a 0-100 km\/h in just under 4 seconds.<\/span><\/p>\n
