Central to the Super e Platform is an all-new generation of battery packs, electric motors and silicon carbide power chips enabling the EV architecture to support charging currents as high as 1,000 ampere. The new battery packs are referred to as ‘flash charge batteries' and are claimed to have been engineered with a 10C charging multiplier meaning that the packs can be charged at 10 times the battery’s capacity per hour. The high charge flow rates have enabled BYD to offer DC fast charging speeds as high as 1,000 kW or 1 MW (megawatt) with a 5-minute charge adding as much as 400 km of range.

The new-gen electric motors are capable of spinning up to 30,511 rpm and developing a peak output of up to 778 bhp and a claimed 5,500 Nm of torque. BYD says that models sitting on its new architecture will be capable of completing the 0-100 kmph sprint in around 2 seconds and hit speeds in excess of 300 kmph.

As mentioned above, BYD’s new platform will hit the road in the new Han L sedan and Tang L SUV that will go on sale in its home market in the coming months.
