In a nutshell Tesla’s battery is built for speed and range, while BYD’s is designed for affordability and safety. Tesla’s also holds more energy and can power cars for longer distances, but it also heats up more,

BYD exec Stella Li described China as “the homeland for innovation” in the car industry. The company’s sales grew more than 40% globally last year thanks to its EVs and PHEVs. Its growth is made all the more impressive by the fact it doesn’t sell any vehicles in the US.

BYD has rapidly grown into a dominant force in the automotive industry, challenging legacy automakers and rivaling Tesla in global EV sales.

Tesla (TSLA) and BYD (BYDDF) are two leading EV manufacturers vying for one of the hottest new business segments in the market. Tesla is a U.S.

When it comes to raw energy storage, Tesla’s 4680 cell has a clear advantage in both gravimetric and volumetric energy density. The Tesla cell achieves 241 Wh/kg and 643 Wh/l, significantly outperforming the BYD Blade at 160 Wh/kg and 355 Wh/l. This means Tesla’s battery packs can be lighter and more compact for the same energy output.

Two main manufacturers dominate the EV (electric vehicle) market: Tesla, which is most popular in Europe and North America, and BYD, which leads the Chinese EV market. However, both manufacturers have released limited data about their batteries,

Batteries are the most expensive component of an EV and the most critical one. A lot of anxiety related to adopting an EV stems from the battery – its range, charge retention ca
