BYD and other manufacturers are eating Tesla's lunch in a big way. All this competition is great news for EVs.
1000 km batteries will be available in a few months time.

BYD will introduce its second-generation ‘blade’ battery pack – with enough range to drive an electric car from Sydney to Melbourne on a single charge – as soon as August 2024.
The new technology will usurp the introduction of solid-state batteries with a similar claimed range by the world’s largest car maker, Toyota, currently planned for 2026 at the earliest.
BYD Chairman Wang Chuanfu revealed details of the second-generation ‘blade’ lithium-ion phosphate (LFP) battery technology during a recent finance conference, according to Chinese website Fast Technology.
The new battery will be lighter, smaller and more efficient than BYD’s first-generation LFP batteries – introduced in 2020 and used in current BYD electric cars sold in Australia – with as much as 190kWh density enabling up to 1000km range (CLTC, or China Light-Duty Vehicles Test Cycle).
