Chinese automaker BYD has developed new battery technology for its upcoming electric car BYD Han. The latest battery technology will have a better energy density that will eventually add more electric range. It looks like Chinese automakers are all set to provide potential alternatives for Tesla’s best-selling electric cars like the Model 3 and Model Y.
The company calls it the Blade Battery Super Launching technology. These will be lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries integrated with new Cell-to-Pack (CTP) technology. As per the claims, this technology will provide an energy density of 160 Wh/kg, which is similar to the energy density of Model 3.
Additionally, CTP will further boost energy density by around 50%. Furthermore, with this in-house developed Blade Battery technology, the upcoming EV BYD Han will have a range of around 373 miles (600 km). However, the said range will be based on the NEDC cycle, which when converted to EPA will be equivalent to 265 miles.
