The platform comes with a blade battery, which is integrated into the body as a structural element and is said to double the torsional rigidity of the body.

Models with this platform will have shorter front suspension, lower center of gravity, more space, and a wind resistance coefficient (Cd) as low as 0.21.

Previously, it was announced that BYD will establish a 200,000-unit annual capacity pure electric vehicle production base in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, which will produce a total of four models based on the e-Platform 3.0, codenamed EM2E, SC2E, EK, and UX, including sedans and SUVs.

Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, and Drip have already cooperated with BYD to develop electric vehicles, e-Platform 3.0 will continue to be open and shared with the industry, and in the near future, electric vehicles developed based on e-Platform 3.0 will be active in various scenarios of intelligent electric mobility.

However, it is worth noting that BAIC Motor has invested 20 billion ($3.08 billion) to build its own platform, while Changan Auto has jointly developed an EV platform with Huawei and CATL.

In addition, with Huawei and other technology companies entering the smart car field, they are also in direct competition with BYD in some hardware and chip businesses.
