BYD Ultra-safe Blade Battery

New levels of safety and performance can be assured thanks to our new and innovative Blade Battery

What makes our LFP battery different from all the others?

Most electric cars use NMC batteries, made with nickel and cobalt. That may sound powerful, but it comes with drawbacks: higher wear, faster heating, and usage limitations. BYD goes further.

We use LFP technology (lithium iron phosphate) – safe, durable, and reliable. And our unique Blade Battery is the ultimate proof of that.

Safer thanks to a unique cell design

The Blade Battery was designed with safety as the top priority. Instead of traditional battery cells, this type uses long, robust cells that are less prone to overheating or damage. This is proven in the rigorous nail penetration test—while other batteries may catch fire, the Blade Battery remains cool and stable. Even under heavy impact or puncture, the risk of fire is minimal. A reassuring thought, mile after mile.

Stronger through smart construction

The innovative structure and shape of the Blade Battery offer a major advantage: maximum efficiency. Thanks to its smart design, the space inside the battery pack is used up to 50% more efficiently than with traditional batteries. In short: more battery fits into the same size — resulting in more energy, more power, and a longer driving range. And with over 3,000 charge and discharge cycles, you’ll enjoy an exceptionally long lifespan.

A battery without nickel or cobalt

The Blade Battery was developed using lithium, iron, and phosphate (LFP). Beyond the technical advantages — like improved thermal safety — there’s an even greater benefit: our batteries contain no nickel and no cobalt! And that’s much better for people, the planet, and everyday use. In short: safer and better. It’s no surprise other EV manufacturers are knocking on our door for our batteries.

Nail penetration test

No other battery in the world has ever passed the infamous nail penetration test as impressively as our Blade Battery. In this test, a metal pin is forcefully driven through a battery to observe the reaction. And in the case of the Blade Battery… almost nothing happened! No smoke, and the temperature never rose above 60°C. While other batteries can burn for up to 24 hours at several hundred degrees. But that’s not the only reason we’re so proud of our battery.
