Why is BYD called Highway Danke? How to set up BYD charging

BYD has always adhered to the development concept of "technology is king, innovation is the basis", and has achieved comprehensive development with its R&D strength and innovative development model, and has played a pivotal role in many fields such as batteries, electronics, passenger cars, commercial vehicles and rail transportation. Some people figuratively call BYD a road tank, why is that?

Why BYD is called the road tank

In fact, this is from BYD S6, because of the thick front and rear anti-collision beams, heavy car, and thick outer shell, BYD cars have much less damage than other cars in many traffic accidents.

Some people who know little about cars like to judge the safety performance of a car by the thickness of its car cover, or even whether it has lost shape after a crash. This kind of arbitrary judgment is very popular among the people. In the past, Volkswagen was given such an image.

How to set up BYD charging

BYD charging does not require any settings. BYD can automatically charge while driving. There are four charging modes, including solar charging, deceleration charging, household power charging, and engine charging. It can be directly charged with household 220V single-phase AC or 380V three-phase AC, which also breaks through the barrier of difficult charging from the design.

BYD has always adhered to the development concept of "technology is king, innovation is the basis". Relying on its R&D strength and innovative development model, it has achieved comprehensive development and played a vital role in many fields such as batteries, electronics, passenger cars, commercial vehicles and rail transit.

In the field of batteries, BYD has 100% independent research and development, design and production capabilities. With more than 20 years of continuous innovation, its products have covered consumer 3C batteries, power batteries (lithium iron phosphate batteries and ternary batteries), solar cells, and energy storage batteries, and has formed a complete battery industry chain.

Currently, BYD is the world's largest lithium iron phosphate battery manufacturer. In addition to new energy vehicles and rail transit, BYD's battery products are widely used in a variety of new energy solutions such as solar power stations and energy storage stations. BYD is a global leader in solar energy, and its products have been exported to many countries and regions including the United States, Germany, Japan, Switzerland, Canada, Australia, South Africa, etc. Its main customers include China State Grid, CGN, Chevron of the United States, Fenecon of Germany, A-style of Japan, etc.

What battery does BYD use?

Some of BYD's new energy vehicles use ternary lithium batteries, and some use lithium iron phosphate batteries. The positive electrode materials of ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries are different. The positive electrode of lithium iron phosphate batteries is made of iron phosphate, and the positive electrode of ternary lithium batteries is made of ternary materials.

The energy density of ternary lithium batteries is higher and their weight is lighter, making them more suitable for use in family cars.

Therefore, most pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles use ternary lithium batteries.

BYD started making batteries before it started making cars. Before it started making cars, BYD had already become the world's second largest manufacturer of rechargeable batteries.

BYD has many pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles, and the pure electric buses manufactured by BYD have also been exported and used abroad.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles are different from ordinary hybrid vehicles. Ordinary hybrid vehicles cannot use external power sources to charge their batteries, but plug-in hybrid vehicles can use external power sources to charge their power batteries.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles have a longer range in pure electric mode, and the range of this type of vehicle is also longer than that of ordinary pure electric vehicles.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles are considered new energy vehicles in the country and can use green license plates.

Many consumers have purchased plug-in hybrid vehicles under the encouragement of national policies.
