BYD, the world’s leading manufacturer of new-energy vehicles, has introduced its Super e-Platform, a breakthrough electric-vehicle architecture designed to eliminate charging anxiety. The platform achieves an industry-leading 1,000kW peak charging power, enabling it to add two kilometres of range per second. This translates to a five-minute flash charge for 400 kilometres of driving range—the fastest mass-production charging speed in the world.
1,000V Vehicle Architecture Matches Gasoline Refill Speeds
The Super e-Platform is the first mass-produced passenger car platform with an “all-domain kilovolt high-voltage architecture”, integrating ultra-high voltage across the battery, motor, power supply, and air conditioning. This innovation allows electric vehicles to achieve “oil-electric parity”, making EV charging as quick as refueling a gasoline car.
Record-Breaking Performance
- 580kW single power-motor output, enabling top speeds of over 300 km/h in the China-market HAN L and TANG L models.
- 30,000rpm ultra-high-speed motor, setting a new benchmark for mass-produced EVs.
- 1,000A maximum charging current and 10C charging rate with BYD’s Flash Charging Battery, featuring ultra-fast ion channels.
Self-Developed BYD Charging Stations with 1,360kW Max Output
To support its ultra-fast charging technology, BYD has developed liquid-cooled megawatt flash-charging terminals capable of delivering a maximum output of 1,360kW. The company plans to deploy over 4,000 megawatt charging stations across China.
Dual-Gun Charging: Upgrading Existing Infrastructure
BYD has also introduced dual-gun charging technology, which can instantly upgrade:
- Fast chargers → Ultra-fast chargers
- Superchargers → Flash chargers
This “intelligent boost” innovation ensures compatibility with public charging networks, expanding charging accessibility.
Redefining Electric Mobility
BYD’s Super e-Platform, combined with its self-developed charging infrastructure, reinforces China’s leadership in global electrification technology. By delivering gasoline-like refueling speeds, BYD is accelerating the transition to sustainable mobility.
