# BYD Seal 08 debuts with Blade Battery 2.0: 1,000 km range, 5-min charging, 684 hp

BYD unveiled the Seal 08, its new flagship electric sedan, at the Beijing Auto Show this weekend. The vehicle packs BYD’s second-generation Blade Battery targeting over 1,000 km of CLTC range and megawatt-level flash charging that adds 400 km of range in five minutes.

It marks the first time the Blade Battery 2.0 and flash charging combination land in a full-size sedan, positioning it as a direct challenger to higher-end electric sedans.

## Blade Battery 2.0 and flash charging

The Seal 08 is built on an 800-volt high-voltage platform and equipped with BYD’s second-generation Blade Battery, which uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry. BYD first announced the Blade Battery 2.0 in early March, claiming over 1,000 km of range under CLTC conditions — roughly double what the first-generation Blade Battery delivered.

The flash charging capability is the headline feature. BYD claims the system can replenish 400 km of range in five minutes and charge from 10% to 70% in the same timeframe. In cold weather down to -30°C, a 20% to 97% charge takes 12 minutes.
