BYD’s ‘Blade Battery’ to resolve battery safety concerns in EVs

Chinese manufacturer BYD has launched its new ‘Blade Battery’ technology for the electric vehicle (EV) industry.

The battery aims to provide higher cruising range and performance over conventional lithium batteries, whilst alleviating concerns about battery safety in EVs.

According to the firm, it has passed extreme test conditions such as being crushed, bent, being heated to 300°C and overcharged by 260%.

The commercial launch is scheduled for June 2020 with a battery-fitted sedan called the Han EV.
