BYD Great Han Flagship EV Unveiled: 1,000 KM Range, 9-Minute Flash Recharge & 700 HP AWD

The electric vehicle industry has officially crossed into the next paradigm of charging speed and range endurance. Ahead of its formal market launch on October 13, 2026, BYD has pulled the covers off its ultra-luxury halo sedan: the Great Han EV. Engineered to challenge established European executive flagships, the Great Han debuts mind-bending fast-charging capabilities alongside four-digit battery range that eliminates range anxiety forever.

The 9-Minute Full Recharge: 1,500 kW Flash Charging

While public DC chargers commonly output between 150 kW and 350 kW, the Great Han introduces next-generation megawatt-level Flash Charging. Utilizing custom liquid-cooled charging cables and proprietary cell chemistry within the Blade Battery 2.0, the sedan accepts charge rates up to a staggering 1,500 kW. In real-world demonstrations, taking the high-voltage battery from 10% to 97% state of charge required an unbelievable 9 minutes flat—matching the duration of a standard petrol station refueling stop.

• Blade Battery 2.0 Chemistry: High-density lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) matrix with integrated carbon nanotube thermal busbars.
• 1,000+ KM Certified Range: Delivers over 1,000 km of driving range on a single charge under standardized testing cycles.
• DiSus-X Active Suspension: Groundbreaking fully active electro-hydraulic suspension capable of 3-wheel driving and active body roll compensation.
• Sleek 0.198 Cd Aerodynamics: Tapered coupe silhouette with active front air dam flaps and flush pop-out electronic door handles.

700+ Horsepower Dual-Motor Silicon-Carbide Powertrain

Performance credentials match the vehicle’s futuristic charging prowess. Driven by dual silicon-carbide (SiC) permanent magnet electric motors, the Great Han dishes out over 700 horsepower and 900 Nm of torque to all four wheels. Standstill to 100 km/h is dismissed in an effortless 2.9 seconds. Thanks to millisecond-precise torque vectoring, the executive sedan maintains steadfast traction through high-speed curves regardless of rain or slippery asphalt.

Palatial Executive Rear Lounge

Inside, the Great Han transforms into a mobile executive boardroom. The rear compartment features two individual reclining captain chairs upholstered in perforated Nappa leather with 18-way electric adjustment, hot-stone massage, and motorized leg rests. A continuous 15.6-inch rotating central screen is paired with an augmented reality heads-up display (AR-HUD) projecting navigation waypoints 10 metres ahead onto the road.
