The Chinese Tech Giant and Global Leader in Electric Vehicles, BYD, Announced the Second Generation of the Blade Battery, V2. This New Technology Promises to Be a Major Advancement in Terms of Range, Performance, and Cost.

The revelation was made by BYD’s CEO, Wang Chanfu, during a financial results meeting. The new battery, called Blade V2, is expected to be launched in August 2024. BYD, founded in 1995, initially manufactured rechargeable batteries for cell phones.

Since then, the company has become a leader in the automotive, electronics, renewable energy, and rail sectors. Among its most notable innovations is the Blade battery, first introduced in March 2020. These batteries are made from lithium iron phosphate (LFP), which eliminates the need for nickel, cobalt, and manganese, common materials in other lithium-ion batteries.

LFP Batteries Have Lower Energy Density Than NMC Batteries (Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt), but Offer Several Advantages

They are cheaper, have a longer life cycle (up to 5,000 charge and discharge cycles), and a greater charging capacity. The structure of the Blade battery cells consists of long blades aligned crosswise, optimizing space by more than 50% compared to conventional batteries.

BYD Has Already Subjected the Blade V2 Battery to Rigorous Endurance Testing

In a nail penetration test, the battery did not emit smoke or catch fire, reaching a temperature of 30 to 60 °C. In comparison, an NMC battery under the same conditions exceeded 500 °C and caught fire instantly.

With the new generation of batteries, BYD’s electric vehicles could achieve a range of up to 1,000 km on a single charge. The energy density will be raised from 140 Wh/kg to 190 Wh/kg, a significant leap that will allow for this increased range.

Currently, BYD’s Electric Vehicles Sold in Brazil Have a Range of Between 350 and 400 km

The new Blade battery will allow for a more spacious car interior, as it will take up less space. Moreover, smaller and lighter batteries mean less material used and lower production costs, which could make electric vehicles more affordable for consumers. The launch of the Blade V2 is expected in August 2024, marking a significant advancement for BYD and the electric vehicle market.

Não entendi; dencidade energética 140, a nova geração 190 ( V2), significa um aumeto de automia de quase 36%, exemplo: atual 400km, nova 444km de automia. Ainde vc encontrou 1000km ? ( 100% a 125%)
