Leak reveals INSANE charging speed of new BYD Blade battery V2

until batery pack manufacturer make reliable and fixable batery pack i don't think EV is the future of transportation, unless we all voluntarily to always in debt for the rest of our life just to replace our battery pack every 4 years and beyond, what a dumb way to get peoples off gasoline

If they can get car batteries up to 2,000 volts then charge speeds will be the same as filling up your car now with fuel. But at the moment most I've seen is only 800 volts :(

The problem with going over 800v is that the parts become more difficult to get. That is the reason most EVs are 400v. 400v parts were easily available before EVs were popular. Going to 1500v for cars will also be problematic because of the insulation and there is not sufficient benefit from the higher voltage.
Big mining trucks run on 3000v (the ones that use electric motors and a diesel generator)

This battery is all smoke and mirrors, fastest charge with perfect output conditions can achieve 12 minutes.With this type of system mass version for cars will never work as grid will always be restricted period

BYD's EVs are badly let down by poor charging performance.

The Faster the Better .. Hopefully the New Battery Tech will arrive Soon!!

beautiful BYD

Oh man, the bus game is about to change - again.

👍👍👏👏👌👌💪💪❤️💯

Then they probably have a problem in the EU.
In the EU normal electricians are allowed to work till 1000V AC and 1500V DC,
Somehow a 1500V DC battery can charge with a voltage of 1850V DC or so, so normal electricians are not allowed to work with this, let alone normal people.
I think they can better go for a 1200V DC battery.

0 to Thermal Runaway in 6 minutes!

No matter how much you blow it, BYD will always be the worst of the worst.

There is going to be announcement on the 26th this month so more details on this should emerge then

Kind of a useless battery design since there is no charging infrastructure to support it.

It could be for long term platform stabilization to normalize continuous annual development of battery tech. High max also means steady (flat) rate medium rate, and bursts of very high speed .

Higher voltages allow for thinner cables to convey more power. The drawback is the challenge of maintaining proper isolation and security.

If we compare a Tesla with a 75kWh pack @ 400V, with a Porsche with 150kWh @ 800V, we could infer roughly two Tesla Packs in series, charged at twice the total power, but same power per pack, with the same set of cable cross sections but higher isolation requirements.

It might not be a battery cell or pack attribute, only a system integration property, with different tradeoffs.

Encountering HIGH VOLTAGE does what to animals ?

The new Brisbane metro was launched in October. it's not a train, it's actually triple length dual articulated electric buses that run on demand. They can charge these at their depos but they also charge while they are en route. See below:
Fast charging
The Grid-eMotion™ system is a pantograph charger that can charge a bus in under six minutes. This system is fully automated and requires no driver input.

Less heat is the reason for the higher voltage. It's the same reason why powerlines are stepped up to such high voltages. As charging speeds increase it is entirely possible there will be even higher voltages in the future.

You should go back to elementary school, learn some simple matematics and aome basic electric.
1500V is 1500V does not mean a shir if it is a 500kWh battery or even a 100kWh that is charging with 100 amps.

You cant say "this car charges att 500kW" ianit a 50kWh, 100kWh or 500kWh battery? Makes a lot off difference, one is charging in 6min 0-100 one 12, and last one 60min...

Un following after 2 years of following you. Too hyperbolic and you just throw around the numbers... 👋

It is just 2x 800v batteries in serial...

Ok it's for commercial use because As far as I know charger for car don't go over 1000volts

BYD never stop research

Mainly for CONSTRUCTION machinery. Excavators, Dump Trucks, etc . Such machinery would need such capacity and power due to the construction Work involved. Game changer as running and maintenance cost would be significantly CHEAPER and LESS DOWNTIME.

This seems to be aimed at Truck market as well as buses. Electric trucks are about to boom so could be a game changer. Not coming to cars though, different voltage architecture.

Opposite to this bus tech GAC's 30,000 rpm motor for personal cars makes more sense.

Existing 150kwh+ chargers are already a pain in the arse to use - heavy and short cables that people struggle to plug in. This is because these cables have to have cooling mechanisms. More heat, means more cooling and any ultra fast charging system would unusable. So assuming it happened at all it would have to be done some other way, e.g. something that mechanically comes up from the ground and connects to the car. So basically no use to any car in existence today and probably only has specialist uses even if it were to exist.

As long as it's safe.

BYD is pumped up just like the other giant Evergrande.. 💣

This is mainly for cost saving besides charging speed. Smaller cable and smaller motor size.

But what about the Tesla 4680 ancient battery

In most of the second world, you are lucky if you have access to a workable 50 KW charger 😂

NO GAME CHANGER. - When German engineers were asked why they dont use a system voltage beyond 1000V they said it is not durable. You have a large chunk of electronics that was developed for trams with an designed input voltage up to 950 V or 1000 V. You can of course overdrive them and it will work, so for the megawatt charging system (MCS) they had a demonstrator running at 1250V. Surely you can work with suppliers to enhance production and testing but that takes time and money. It is nowhere near of actual production - and if the Chinese suddenly start to mass market it then it will fall under the usual category of "tofu dregg".

من يصنع بطاريه يمكن شحنها بشكل أسرع
سيسيطر علي سوق السيارات الكهربائية في العالم

ولا يهم اذا كان المدى طويل الاهم ان يتم شحنها بشكل أسرع

اين الافضل
ان تكون لديك سيارة فيها بطاريات مداها أبعد مثلا 600كيلو متر لكن هي اثقل وتشحن ببطئ 30 دقيقة لشحنها

او ان تكون لديك سيارة فيها بطاريات أخف لكن مدها اقل من 600 كليو متر ويتم شحنها في أقل من 5 دقائق

اين من السيارة التى ستصل أسرع في رحله طول 2000 كيلو متر ؟

أكيد السيارة التي تشحن أسرع
لهذا البطاريات التى يتم شحنها أسرع مهمه جدا لمستقبل السيارات الكهربائية

This battery and architecture will be used in the BYD HAN L, and we will hear about this car next two months. In fact, BYD batteries are constantly improving, and they didnot specifically promote this as the second version of the blade battery. In 2023, this battery and architecture were installed in the YANGWANG U9, which reached a top speed of 391 km/h in Germany.

Charging a BEV's small battery at those speeds would have a toll of the life of the battery and possibly increase the risk of a fire.

BYD in a surprise move to leapfrog Tesla. A 1500V architecture is absolutely necessary for getting charging times down. I'm really surprised that Tesla didn't go for this or even higher for the Semi and then roll it out everywhere.

How many times are you gonna change the game brotha?

Surprise, surprise, another day, another and a new battery. Like all the other battery news before this ALL CAME TO NOTHING

You cant just scale this down from large batteries for buses to smaller batteries for EVs, but this is a game changer for large commercial vehicles.

The higher system voltage can help charge times by having less current going through the charging system, but it can only help so much, because it doesn't change the "C" rating of the cells.

Little point charging faster if you can't gain access to any charging point thats fast, slow or even slower.

No use to people living on terraced streets or blocks of flats (appartments). Then the thorny issue of charging at your place of work too.

Britain in the EV slow lane.

EXACTLY what the average Australian DOESN"T need

BYD is in serious financial trouble. $77billion in debt and growing. Chinese social media is flooded with BYD quality and reliability issues. Carrying a 75% debt ratio is not good. Might want to check this out.

👍👍

I'd hate to be in a car crash with 1,500 volts under the seats!

I would like to know, if with the new technology (batteries) you will be able to go to the outbeck to have an adventure?
