One of the most crucial components of an electric vehicle is its battery system. After years of continuous research and development, BYD created the Blade Battery. What makes this system so special?
The Blade Battery delivers a new level of safety, durability, and performance, while also utilizing battery space with exceptional efficiency. One of its standout features — which visually resembles a blade — is that it uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) as its cathode material. LFP is significantly safer than traditional lithium-ion batteries. It offers excellent thermal stability and contains no cobalt, making it both environmentally friendly and economically advantageous. Additionally, LFP is known for its high durability.
BYD has been a pioneer in battery technology for over 20 years. With 27 years of development and more than 3 million battery-powered vehicles delivered to customers, the company has firmly established itself as a leader in this field. The Blade Battery, introduced by BYD in March 2020, is the result of this relentless research and innovation — a true technological breakthrough.
Battery safety is one of the most critical concerns in the electric vehicle sector. The Blade Battery was specifically designed to maximize safety. It stands out for its durability, energy density, strength, and longevity. This ultra-safe battery also boasts a robust structural design. Its flat and elongated shape allows for more efficient use of the battery pack’s space, enhancing both safety and overall performance.
