@@MudflyWatersman Ha!, I almost begun to imagine some of those videos were AI generated but they look so authentic. So I'm totally baffled by his work-rate.
I'm up 23% this year. They sell batteries, battery storage centers, batteries for industrial mining trucks, the largest in the world and their car company 1 million to 10 million in 4 years. Do you need anything else? They're making a profit already. Tell me somebody that can do that. Eli can't build the vehicles It's the hybrids they came out with. Is their market they're going after
The V1 battery is very good and after two years has shown no sign of degradation. If and when it does wear out I hopefully can replace it with a better one. It's good news.
The BYD I just bought today has an 8 year battery warranty, and I could have bought 3 of these on my credit card here in Thailand man. If I get the 8 I will consider it worth the upgrade down the road when the tech will be cheaper
Basically battery industry is duo, Byd vs Calt. Both of them have quite a few of battery tricks in their sleevs and release them when necessary, which is devastating the reat of battery makers.
@@tedchandran Shooo away indian, why are you here talking about batteries ....you are indian, at least 50 years behind in tech. Try to make some toilets first.
Honda's New Solid-State Battery looks like BYD blade battery. It looks like BYD has set a new standard in battery shape. I'm looking forward to V2 specs.
I am going to buy a Shark to replace an old Pathfinder we use to tow a 1.6 tonne caravan. The battery does not make much difference to me as the long/infrequent trips with van will be all on petrol, the rest of the time will be short trips all on battery, and charged at home mostly from solar ...but more battery capacity would be useful to store extra surplus solar
Hopefully BYD can place LFP v2 into dolphin & atto 3 asap The range will truly reach past 550km Equivalent to ICE cars Currently real world range with use of cabin heating & cooling on road is still on the low side 400km Hopefully come early 2025..
Brazil gets the Shark, and by extension, the EU, in December, yes, December in 5 days, not sure about Australia. BYD has a vehicle manufacturing plant in Brazil ready to go now. Look into COP 29 that just conclude there. For more info. 🙂
Welcome gentlemen. We are unique in that we forge our batteries in the fires of our will. You haaaave our Gratitude…..It’s even better! Han, I thought.
Buying Shark 6 on a lease to take advantage of current FBT exemption, my plan is to trade at end of lease on full BEV Shark when it finally lands as would obviously prefer a full EV than hybrid 😁👍
I installed a BYD home backup battery in California in 2019. It’s LFP and just keeps humming along. Rated at 10KWh but I think it only uses about 7KWh.
Yep, I am one who did not believe that BYD would make something big with their blade batteries. All is still in place, as BYD owns the format and makes all for their future, but not much outside BYD takes over. The Blade battery's main advantage is the fire protection, but I do not know if it is enough.
I believe that a longer life span of the battery is much more important than energy density If a battery can go up to 10000 cycles is much more interesting You can go up to for example 1,000,000 KM life span with battery is very much game over for even best ICE car
It is a bit of a double edged sword. It is most likely that BYD will not be able to scale the new Blade battery production so quickly that they can outfit their entry level vehicles soon. And the longer that they can extend the production of their current Blade batteries the better than they can leverage prior R&D investment. It will likely cost more for BYD to produce the new Blade batteries, and even though they can pass that higher cost off to higher end buyers with the promise of better performance efficiency and longevity, cost increases on entry models are harder to justify, especially with so much good competition. Importantly, the moment that BYD provides a real-world timeline for their new Blade batteries in their cheaper models is the moment where their sales of their current EVs using the old batteries dies, and the value of used BYDs will tank as well. So I believe that BYD will keep a lid on their timeline for updates, and let the media use unsubstantiated rumors for as long as possible.
I don’t think we get the BYD Shark in the UK. More’s the pity - looks awesome - especially if it came with the new Blade II battery. Curious to know if my 2024 Rav4 GR phev has a BYD battery?? 🔋
No first time back I thought you did say the energy density was much higher. I played back and couldn't hear it and went somewhere else. This is true the 19
One more instance of the Chinese leading the way on battery technology. I wonder as these more traditional chemistries get better, with more density if there will come a time when they will fulfill the promise of solid-state batteries.
They already have advance battery with higher energy density... not for civilians. For their military use... Drones, Dog robots, EV military vehicles etc
If you keep waiting for the latest tech, then you'd never go out and get anything. As soon as something is slated for release, there is something better in the wings. There is good, there is also good enough. Replacing the just the battery module down the track is also an option.
Could you do a video on the public charging network here in Australia. There seems to be so little talked about regarding this important topic. If you cant charge a car away from home people won't buy the EVs
the only question we have is... if they offer 8 years in battery warranty... will they be compatible with 2nd generation BYD blade batteries. Plus if it is out of warranty, after 8 years, did they design the new gen batteries with backward compatibility in mind? Therefore, you as a Influencer should let them know, the consumers are expecting backward compatibility with new generation batteries and previous generation cars.
So, out of all the battery videos you made, a battery with an incremental improvement is coming through in a years time. Most likely, this will actually exist in 2 years
BYD is gunning for Toyota, they said it before. They have class leading plug in hybrid system. In Europe Chinese hybrids have no tarrifs and in local Chinese market phev growth is much higher than Pures. So Zeekr, Xpeng, Avatr, Lotus all announced they going hybrids too. Even Nios Firefly will go hybrid because of no European tarrifs. Chinese will make big money, margins in Europe Phev segment
Okay so when will those hybrids start to arrive? They will allegedly start getting shipped now by years end but already by jan 2026 the tax break for PHEV will be drastically lowered compared to EVs, right? So they have 12 months to sell them in the EU and so far here in Sweden only BYD Seal U and MG3 has started sales and they are not really cheap? Seal U is 4% cheaper than Ford Kuga PHEV.
Battery tech are improving so fast, the best way to utilize this technology is to lease it, not to own it. Do the Nio battery swapping model. This way, amortization of the cost of the battery is done quickly. Once amortized, it can be recycled immediately.
I've ordered a shark but if I cancelled what do you think in your opinion the price would be with the new tech in 2 years? Surely not the 58k I'm paying in Australia.
EV battery companies should start merging and making better use of their R&D resources. The clear breathroughs have distinguised themselves and they should all focus mostly on going to market and lowering manufacturing costs.
I agree, EV motors are not. Unfortunately the EV Clinik in Zagreb, Romania to wich a lot of europeans go to if they have problems, has sent out a report. This report claims, the 3 most commin problemns are 1. the electric motor. 2nd the on board charger and 3. the Dc-Dc converter. Sad, but true.
It could still take two years or more for the new battery to trickle down into all there cars , so that’s a huge dilemma for you , if you were planning to buy next year
@@jasoncarmichael4540 Many thanks for your reply. My Nissan Note will be 11 in January and I was hoping to replace it sometime next year. Sam mentioned that he thought that BYD are working an uprated Dolphin, so it would seem reasonable that it would have the new battery. I think that I need to be flexible and see what happens next year, the car has only done 55,000 miles so it should be good for another year or two.
I wonder why you're saying that the BYD batteries are not as good as their rivals and then in the next breath, say that the batteries will easily outlast the life of the car. As well as better mileage and charging. What more should we expect from a battery at this stage?
Can somebody answer me this question? I read yesterday EU tariffs are not in effect for hybrid vehicles and the answer is no. There is no tariff. Please correct me if I'm wrong someone
If China really wants to sell cars to Western companies, they need to seriously address security concerns. Rumors about collecting information on their customers and having any sort of 'kill switch' in times of conflict seriously damages their reputation. They need to counter such rumors with more than just 'trust us'.
Given the range of Sealion 7, I would say no it won't have the blade V2 or new architecture. Also it is not one of their premium brands like Yangwang or Denza. If Seal, Dolphin, Atto3 etc do get V2 it won't be for a couple of years.
They have advised the Sealion 7 in Europe is the current Blade v1, and the new e-platform 3.0, which has the cell-to-body design and 800v. Other markets without the 91kwh battery option are running a cheaper, older Sealion 7 running the older 400v platform. Nothing BYD makes is yet on the new battery (because it's not out yet).
A car is more than a great battery. As long the car beeps and sounds every few seconds (as the Chinese brands like to do here in Europe) - forget them. Undriveable!
The problem with EV is that the technology is moving so fast you fear buying something that in one year will be behind the new generation, this will effect your resale value. If the EV makers made new batteries available for exchange with their older models people would be more confident when considering when to buy an EV. I'm sitting on the fence as I don't have the confidence to jump in at the moment.
I bought an ATTO3 one year ago. It serves my purpose quite well. So far so good. Even if the ev technology advances year after year, it is ok to me. My vehicle has helped to keep the surrounding air unpolluted wherever i go. If a few years down the road i can change the battery to a much more efficient one (an option to consider), it is icing on the cake. Meanwhile, life goes on. I don't pollute the air, nor warm up the surroundings, nor produce noise wherever i drive to.
Blade battery is more robust. Stackable, interchangeable, reliable like lego pieces. You will be able to upgrade to v2 later on. No one can beat chinese in ev. This japanese brands still struggling with early stage of solid state
What is needed is the V1 Blade battery production on Steroids so BYD and other manufacturers can churn out Cheap reliable EV's needed across many markets. Their V2 can be for new BYD specific models and if possible a future replacement for V1 owners.
BYD cars with byd battery gen1 are looking old tech as xpeng etc arrive in Au/NZ. Not that I would buy one until I see their anti-rust treatment is up to spec.
Its average, but if it last longer than the previous gen and can do 5c charging then yes its has a massive edge on other batteries. I would be interested to know if they can trade away some battery life and get pack more energy density in say 240 watt hour/kg. And use it in their performance and SUVs that would make a huge difference.
Do you not understand what a 'multiple' of 5.5C means? It means 5.5C, 11C, 16.5C and so on. It doesn't mean randomly suggesting charging rates. There probably has been a mistranslation somewhere but you should be trying to clarify what BYD said/meant not just using the moment to make shit up. Edit: Evidently, the multiple thing is just Sam adding poorly chosen terminology to this story, which is par for the course.
So next year all the current BYDs are obsolete and old tech. Three years later another new battery comes along and its the same story. The future might be electric, but its seems it will also be disposable.
EV motors hardly vulnerable 😂 they arecin fact very tough Funny hardly anyone will turn things upside down, to spread joke, false info Hahaha Vulnerable is battery especially dangerous is ternary battery instant inferno short circuit or thermal runaway LFP is rather safer
It’s like the darn PC business. These battery announcements and implementations make me not want to buy an EV. Why? Because as soon as the next battery comes out the EV you bought a year ago is worth 50% or less on the used market. The only way to acquire an EV is via lease, otherwise you get taken to the cleaners. Treat EV’s as throw always.
100%. Im giving back my model 3 LR (560€ per month 25k km per year) for a plug-in hybrid full option tiguan (650€/month woth 30k km per year) on a 3 year lease. Because I'm done with the 300km ish battery range on highway in winter. Im waiting 2028 in order to BUY an electric car and run it to 200k km and not care about resale value. I believe by 2028 I could get 600 real km. Charging in 10 minutes and 30% cheaper than now. It feels like it's never a good time really.
Blade batteries, Solid State batteries, Lithium-ion batteries, Shewanella Oneidensis batteries may all work well, but the electric vehicle still cannot out perform an ICE vehicle or a Hybrid vehicle.
@@buckbenelli8 Good idea, don't buy a Tesla but go out and purchase a electric car from the planet loving, transparent and caring, Chinese government. How hypocritical and self righteous we are. Just because you don't like someone's political views we are happy to cut off our nose, spite our face. Go and live in China for a few years and then you may get some kind of appreciation of our lucky we are. Purchasing a car from China is just feeding the military machine which is against the western world and what it stands for. The western world has been very lucky having China produce cheap goods for just on 50 years now but this prosperous period has changed. Its ok thou, no matter what happens in the feature you will always know better. Enjoy, the CCP will appreciate your blind support.

In BYDs domestic market many people will still buy those "old" batteries, simply because they're time proven by now

So, out of all the battery videos you made, a battery with an incremental improvement is coming through in a years time. Most likely, this will actually exist in 2 years

BYD is gunning for Toyota, they said it before. They have class leading plug in hybrid system.

And use it in their performance and SUVs that would make a huge difference.
Reducing the weight is the biggest gain, byd batteries are big time heavy...
With that kind of battery china can build a long range silent submarine
Do you not understand what a 'multiple' of 5.5C means? It means 5.5C, 11C, 16.5C and so on. It doesn't mean randomly suggesting charging rates.
There probably has been a mistranslation somewhere but you should be trying to clarify what BYD said/meant not just using the moment to make shit up.
Edit: Evidently, the multiple thing is just Sam adding poorly chosen terminology to this story, which is par for the course.
increased cycles just points to poor engineering/cooling of the first iteration
iirc there were criticisms of BYDs rudimentary cooling solution
So next year all the current BYDs are obsolete and old tech. Three years later another new battery comes along and its the same story. The future might be electric, but its seems it will also be disposable.
Looks like 2026 is the year I will get an second EV. This time to replace my aging SUV.
Disappointing if does not come to the atto 3
Already now, the most vulnerable part of an EV is the engine, not the battery. The information is from the Zagreb EV clinic.
EV's don't have engines, only electric motors.

Vulnerable is battery especially dangerous is ternary battery instant inferno short circuit or thermal runaway
LFP is rather safer
@@PyroShieldsOh, I did not know, that in englisch one differs between engine and motor. Thank you for the correction 😉
Better be a game changer
It’s like the darn PC business. These battery announcements and implementations make me not want to buy an EV. Why? Because as soon as the next battery comes out the EV you bought a year ago is worth 50% or less on the used market. The only way to acquire an EV is via lease, otherwise you get taken to the cleaners. Treat EV’s as throw always.
100%.
Im giving back my model 3 LR (560€ per month 25k km per year) for a plug-in hybrid full option tiguan (650€/month woth 30k km per year) on a 3 year lease.
Because I'm done with the 300km ish battery range on highway in winter.
Im waiting 2028 in order to BUY an electric car and run it to 200k km and not care about resale value.
I believe by 2028 I could get 600 real km. Charging in 10 minutes and 30% cheaper than now.
It feels like it's never a good time really.
Shilly boy
Did you wait for the best microprocessor to buy a PC? Wait 2 years, an even better one is in the works. 😂
I think that Musk should kick his 4680 torch batteries to the curb and use blades or prismatics
Blade batteries, Solid State batteries, Lithium-ion batteries, Shewanella Oneidensis batteries may all work well, but the electric vehicle still cannot out perform an ICE vehicle or a Hybrid vehicle.
You do realize byd is going bankrupt.
I can’t buy it because of Musk
I will never buy a Tesla.
Maybe buy a VW instead - that company was started by Hitler.
@@buckbenelli8 Good idea, don't buy a Tesla but go out and purchase a electric car from the planet loving, transparent and caring, Chinese government. How hypocritical and self righteous we are. Just because you don't like someone's political views we are happy to cut off our nose, spite our face. Go and live in China for a few years and then you may get some kind of appreciation of our lucky we are. Purchasing a car from China is just feeding the military machine which is against the western world and what it stands for. The western world has been very lucky having China produce cheap goods for just on 50 years now but this prosperous period has changed. Its ok thou, no matter what happens in the feature you will always know better. Enjoy, the CCP will appreciate your blind support.
