BYD INTRODUCES A DOUBLE ENTRY OF NEW EBUS INNOVATION AT BUSWORLD 2023, ultra-safe Lithium Iron Phosphate Blade Battery.
BYD, the world’s leading manufacturer of new energy vehicles (NEV) introduces two new eBus innovations at Busworld 2023 held at Brussels Expo, Belgium. From Hall 7, Stand 705, the BYD 40-foot B12 eBus brings a new generation of integrated chassis technology to public transport operators in Europe. In addition, and making its world premiere at the BYD stand, is the 45-foot customizable pure-electric intercity double-decker coach; the BYD-UNVI DD13, an exciting collaboration between the pioneering BYD brand and renowned European coach bodybuild specialist, UNVI. These new buses join two established BYD models on show at Busworld 2023: the BYD eBus B19 (60-foot) and the 50-foot BYD eBus B15.
With BYD’s latest generation of 40-foot electric buses, BYD presents its revolutionary all-new pure-electric bus chassis which integrates the ultra-safe Lithium Iron Phosphate Blade Battery within the chassis structure. This groundbreaking Blade Battery Chassis technology also utilizes a new 6-in-1 controller with Silicon Carbide technology, together with two innovative wheel hub hairpin motors. Combined, these bring a multitude of benefits to BYD’s 40-foot eBus including enhanced energy efficiency, performance and durability. The Blade Battery, with a maximum capacity of 500kWh, delivers an exceptional range in one charge reducing the need for regular charging, making the BYD eBus B12 an excellent choice for busy bus routes.
Always committed to developing strong partnerships, BYD has collaborated with UNVI to produce a new 45-foot double-decker coach for European public transport operators. The alliance brings together BYD’s expertise in world-leading battery and chassis technology and UNVI’s exceptional experience in body design and build technology. The pure-electric BYD-UNVI DD13 intercity double-decker, equipped with ADAS for added safety, makes its world premiere at Busworld 2023.
