BYD is launching a new Blade EV battery next year to power its next wave of vehicles. China’s EV giant confirmed the advanced batteries will unlock even more driving range for its next-gen electric cars. It’s been over four years since BYD’s battery unit FinDreams launched the first Blade battery in 2020.
Then there might be improved lithium-ion batteries, maybe using silicon anodes or rocksalt cathodes, for mid-range vehicles, or perhaps solid-state lithium batteries will take over that class. Then there might be LiS or even lithium–air cells for high-end cars — or flying taxis. But there’s a lot of work yet to be done.
