Integrated structural battery chassis: BYDRecent Research Landscape
Standard modular battery packs increase vehicle weight and reduce spatial efficiency. This architecture integrates energy storage directly into the load-bearing frame to maximize energy density.
What technical problems is BYD addressing in Integrated structural battery chassis?
Excessive vehicle curb weight
(23)evidences
Redundant structural components between the energy storage system and the chassis increase mass and reduce range. Integrating these systems eliminates parasitic weight to improve energy density.
Chassis structural weight inefficiency
(15)evidences
Traditional separate battery and chassis systems create redundant mass and volume. Reducing parasitic weight increases energy density and vehicle range.
