Do you remember the grand occasion when the blade battery was first launched in 2020? At that time, it caused quite a stir in the entire new energy vehicle circle. But who would have thought that this once “unique artifact” would actually become the third in 2025. Why is this? Let’s find out!
The current blade battery does have many outstanding features:
1. Outstanding safety performance, energy density reaches 220Wh/kg
2. The cruising range exceeds 1,000 kilometers, which is enough for long-distance travel
3. Relatively low production cost, outstanding cost performance
4. The characteristics of long life and high power make it unique in the market
But the good times did not last long. In 2024-2025, Tesla’s 4680 battery turned out to be superior in safety performance. Although the blade battery has a good energy density, the problem of large size has always been a flaw.
But don’t rush to draw conclusions, friends. BYD is already developing the second-generation blade battery, which is expected to have an energy density of 360Wh/kg, a charge and discharge life of an astonishing 15,000 times, and can be charged from 10% to 80% in 10 minutes, and can work normally in extreme temperatures of -40 to 65 degrees. This wave of operations can be said to be a blow to the opponent.
The new blade battery ranks only third in importance. Will BYD no longer offer low prices in 2025?
