As of Q1 2026, cumulative R&D investment has exceeded 250 billion yuan.

High-intensity R&D investment is continuously converting into technical achievements. In March 2026, BYD launched the second-generation Blade Battery and Flash Charge technology. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology specifically affirmed in its mid-year summary that this technology "breaks the technical bottleneck where fast charging, high range, long lifespan, and low-temperature performance cannot be simultaneously achieved". Under normal temperature conditions, full charge in 5 minutes, fully charged in 9 minutes, only needs 3 additional minutes at minus 30 degrees Celsius. Flash Charge network spreading simultaneously, plan to build 20,000 Flash Charge stations nationwide by year-end, and deploy 6,000 Flash Charge stations overseas, providing users with convenient and efficient recharging experiences.

In May, BYD announced that all models can be equipped with the Eye of Heaven B Assist Driving Laser version, and was the first to promise a 1-year safety net for City Pilot navigation, further lowering the entry threshold for advanced intelligent driving, accelerating the arrival of the era of City-wide pilot navigation. From battery to recharging network to intelligent driving, BYD's technical landscape is becoming increasingly complete, every landed result is the best return on long-term R&D investment.
