The electric vehicle market is currently one of the most exciting industries in technology and design. When they hear the words “electric vehicle”, most people immediately think of Tesla, as for the most part, they have received very little competition in the industry. But the Chinese manufacturer Build Your Dreams is quickly shaking up the market with their new Blade battery - and even Elon Musk has taken notice. With Tesla rumoured to be investing in BYD’s new “game changing” lithium battery, what exactly is this new technology that’s generating so much hype around the world?

    It is not really Tesla's new battery, it is BYD's new product for Tesla.
  • These are revolutionary times. I’m 70 and encouraged by what will happen in my lifetime and my families future.
  • Its not Tesla's its BYD's....Tesla are lucky to get support from BYD
  • @Robin-ut2ro
    After this video BYD , BYD , BYD , BYD … this is what I am going to hear again and again in my head for a long time

    Elon has stated numerous times it wants to purchase as many high tech batteries as possible -- regardless of source. It needs them for it's EVs, it's home Power Walls, and for it's grid storage businesses. The demand for more and better batteries is unlimited.

    BYD may sound newbie in auto industry to the rest of the world outside China. but before BYD get into car making industry, it's been decades for BYD to be the world's biggest battery manufacturer next to none. it's research direction was in batery technology, unlike other trditional auto makers. so when BYD joined the EV game, it has to be the game changer.

    I hope Tesla is able to build a mutually profitable long term relationship with BYD. If BYD has an IPO in the US to market it's EVs here, I will definitely buy stock in the company. It is the ONLY EV company besides Tesla that impresses me.

    The title is misleading. This is not a Tesla cell but a breakthrough innovation from BYD. After Panasonic, Tesla turned to CATL and now BYD. Batteries are very complicated. Hence why Tesla has never developed own cell. Just buying the knowhow from Japanese and Chinese.
  • @vaibhav_uk
    Someone said China is copy-paste no innovation but reality looks different. this is leading tech in battery development. In a decade, they will master semi conductors as well.
  • @user-hv4ky5kt2x
    BYD company creator is a battery expert. no need to wonder that BYD battery is better than others.
  • @guymichaud5683
    Good luck to BYD; the technology and designs look great. We'll have to see if the specs match reality. GigaBerlin might be approved by June or July. Elon mentioned that he will announce a new factory at the end of the year. There is a good chance, at least at this point, that the new factory will begin operations before GigaBerlin.
  • I’ve been waiting for more than 35 years for a long range ev battery! Hurry up! I’m almost dead!!
  • @Taahmim
    Enjoying Battery competition. Surely the final result will change the world.
  • @markwongplus
    China innovation is coming and more will come. Creativity, innovation, imagination from China.
  • @rontribbey5510
    I like the blade concept for sure ,i think it would also be great for electric aircraft and robiotics for future designs, just my view.
  • @2139rich
    Tesla is not about EV cars; Tesla is about intelligent smart EV cars. No one can compete with Tesla in that field.
  • No doubt Tesla is the first company that recently inspired and impressed most people in the world and put the electric car into mass production. Since the electric car mechanical design is much simpler as compared to the combustion engine, so if in near future the electric car can be designed in such a way that the car body unit, driver unit, and battery unit separately, each and individual unit or platform and can be upgraded and sold separately, it's not just lowered the cost but also recycle the parts or materials. Cheers!

    I love the ending. Can you even imagine two mega companies thinking of the greater good, instead of profits..?
  • @ericyeo805
    BYD continuing improving and development of the new power pack for EV is excellence. I wish them success hope one day they can become the undisputed leader in the industries. Good luck in your endeavour.
