BYD's Revolutionary Super e-Platform Leads the Way in Electric Vehicle Technology
In a significant leap forward for the electric vehicle (EV) industry, Chinese automaker BYD has unveiled its groundbreaking Super e-Platform. This advanced technology promises to redefine charging speeds, motor performance, and battery efficiency.
The Super e-Platform is equipped with a Megawatt Flash Charge system, capable of delivering an astonishing 1 MW charging power (1,000 kW) with a maximum current of 1,000A. This innovative charging system enables charging speeds of approximately 400 km in just 5 minutes, a game-changer for EV owners seeking faster recharge times.
Another standout feature of the Super e-Platform is the first mass-produced 30,000+ rpm electric traction motor. This motor boasts a peak output of 580 kW (778 hp), enabling top vehicle speeds over 300 km/h.
BYD has also incorporated next-gen silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors into the Super e-Platform. These semiconductors improve thermal management and allow high-voltage operation up to 1500 V, enhancing the overall efficiency of the EVs powered by this technology.
The platform also introduces a reengineered blade battery cell called the Flash Charging Battery. This battery supports a 10C charging rate and can operate at up to 1000V, ensuring rapid charging times and improved battery life.
The Super e-Platform powers flagship models like the BYD Han L EV sedan and Tang L EV SUV, both of which boast impressive acceleration times. The Han L, for instance, can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in as fast as 2.7 seconds[1][2].
Despite an ongoing investigation by the European Commission into potential unfair subsidies for BYD's EV plant in Hungary, there is no verified information about any investigation into the Super e-Platform or related technologies as of July 2025[1][2].
BYD's stock has soared following the announcement of the new technology. The company is setting its sights on the UK's small and affordable EV segment with the BYD Dolphin Surf, expected to cost below £20,000 in the UK, and has made the Atto 2 available in Germany.
In other news, Volvo Cars will use realistic, AI-generated virtual worlds to develop its safety software, including Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), using data gathered from sensors in its new cars.
