BYD Yuan Plus stands on the E-platform 3.0 platform, which is designed for the next generation of high-performance smart EVs and offers four key advantages: safety, efficiency, intelligence and aesthetics. The platform will further integrate and standardize core components in the new body structure, digital and electric architecture, and the new BYD vehicle operating system.
BYD’s own Blade Battery increases the level of safety for EVs while increasing battery pack space utilization by more than 50%, compared to conventional lithium iron phosphate block batteries. This helps reduce the total weight of the car, which in turn increases energy efficiency and range.
