What is a BYD blade battery?

The blade battery was officially launched by BYD in 2020. BYD claims that compared with ternary lithium batteries and traditional lithium iron phosphate batteries, the blade battery holds advantages in safety, range, longevity, strength and power.

What are the benefits of a blade battery?

Efficiency and extended range are other benefits of the Blade Battery, offering greater power density for optimal performance and efficiency, including faster charging. BYD CTP (Cell to Pack) technology makes the difference, with the Blade Battery increasing space utilization by 50%.

Why do all BYD cars have a blade battery?

This improves energy density and allows more batteries in a compact space, with a longer driving range. The 'honeycomb-like aluminum' design of the Blade Battery also provides greater rigidity and safety. The BYD TANG, BYD HAN and BYD ATTO 3 are all equipped with a Blade Battery.

What is a blade battery?

Another unique selling point of the blade battery – which actually looks like a blade – is that it uses lithium iron-phosphate (LFP) as the cathode material, which offers a much higher level of safety than conventional lithium-ion batteries. LFP naturally has excellent thermal stability and is substantially cobalt free.

How does blade battery technology impact the environment?

The adoption of Blade Battery technology has far-reaching implications for the environment. As governments and industries worldwide strive to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change, electric vehicles represent a sustainable alternative to traditional combustion engine vehicles.

What is a blade battery EV?

Diverse applications of Blade Battery Electric Vehicles (EVs): Blade Battery technology can be employed in electric vehicles, offering enhanced safety, increased energy density, and longer lifespan compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries. It enables the production of safer and more efficient electric cars with longer driving ranges .
