Blade Battery FAQ

Get answers to the most common questions about BYD's revolutionary battery technology.

What is the BYD Blade Battery?+

The BYD Blade Battery is a revolutionary lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery that uses a unique cell-to-pack design. It eliminates traditional module structures, increasing space utilization by 50% while providing exceptional safety. The Blade Battery passes the nail penetration test without fire or explosion - a feat no other EV battery can achieve.

How does Blade Battery compare to Tesla 4680 cells?+

BYD Blade Battery uses LFP chemistry while Tesla 4680 uses NMC/NCA. Key differences: Blade Battery has superior safety (passes nail penetration test), longer lifespan (1M+ km vs 500K km), no cobalt (more ethical sourcing), but slightly lower energy density. Tesla 4680 offers higher energy density but with thermal runaway risks and cobalt dependency.

What is the lifespan of BYD Blade Battery?+

The BYD Blade Battery is designed to last over 1 million kilometers (620,000+ miles) with minimal degradation. This exceptional longevity comes from the inherent stability of LFP chemistry, which experiences less stress during charge cycles compared to NMC batteries.

Is Blade Battery safer than traditional lithium-ion batteries?+

Yes, the Blade Battery is significantly safer. It is the only EV battery to pass the nail penetration test - the most rigorous battery safety test - without fire, smoke, or explosion. The LFP chemistry is inherently more thermally stable, virtually eliminating thermal runaway risk.

What is the nail penetration test?+

The nail penetration test is the strictest battery safety test where a steel nail is driven through a fully charged battery cell. Traditional lithium-ion batteries typically catch fire or explode. BYD's Blade Battery passes this test with no fire, no smoke, and surface temperature reaching only 30-60°C, demonstrating exceptional safety.

Does Blade Battery support fast charging?+

Yes, BYD's latest Blade Battery technology supports ultra-fast charging. With BYD's Super e-Platform featuring 1,000kW charging capability, vehicles can gain up to 400km of range in just 5 minutes. Standard Blade Batteries support 80kW-150kW DC fast charging.

What vehicles use BYD Blade Battery?+

All BYD passenger vehicles use Blade Battery technology, including the BYD Han, Tang, ATTO 3, Seal, Dolphin, and Seagull. The technology is also used in commercial vehicles, buses, and is being supplied to other automakers like Toyota and Ford.

Nail Penetration Test Certified

The Blade Battery is the only battery technology to pass the nail penetration test without fire or explosion, setting a new benchmark for EV safety.
