More about the intelligent systems

Intelligent Systems


Smart Monitoring and Diagnosing System (SMDS)

The SMDS allows you to monitor the real-time status of the ebus and the charging posts.

With the SMDS, customers can remotely diagnose any problems and control the bus systems, which significantly reduces the maintenance cost. Driving data generated by the SMDS can be analyzed and used for further research.

New intelligent low-voltage electricity management system

The new electric current control system has integrated all the electric circuits of the bus. The newly upgraded self-diagnosis function can effectively diagnose short circuits caused by excessive internal heat or voltage. The system can be tailor-made to meet the customers’ diverse operation requirements. The system provides additional protection for both the hardware and software and enhances the safety of the bus.

Autohold System

Autohold System ensures safety. When the driver brakes and the bus comes to a stop, the bus will automatically be prevented from moving even on a slope without stepping on the brake pedal.

Battery and Battery Management

The Iron-Phosphate batteries fitted to BYD ebuses have high energy and power density and at the same time meet high safety standards. The batteries have adopted BYD’s industry-leading Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS) which has a good heat interchange effect. This can effectively reduce the battery degradation and help extend battery life.

Keyless System

With Keyless System, the bus can be started and stopped by just one press on the ‘POWER’ button.

Regenerative Braking System

Regenerative Braking System converts some of the kinetic energy into electricity and stores it in the battery to give additional driving range.

Pre-heating System

The heating and air conditioning function can be switched on at a pre-set time thanks to the Pre-heating System.

100% Electric

BYD ebus is 100% Electric when choosing the optional fully electrical climate control system.

ADAS

Our ebuses are equipped with various ADAS functions that enhance safety and convenience including Tire pressure monitoring, Digital exterior rear mirror system, Alcohol interlock, Pedestrian & Cyclist Collision Warning (PCW), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Headway Monitoring Warning (HMW), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Speed Limit Indicator (SLI), Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS), Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), Emergency Stop Signal (ESS), Reversing Detection System (REV), Driver Drowsiness and Attention Warning (DDR-AW).

More about the safety

Safety first.


BYD own Test Centre is equipped with more than 100 professional labs and more than 3,000 test categories, for the whole vehicle, its system and components, drive system, vehicle material, safety, EMC and NVH to ensure the safety and reliability of the ebus.

The test centre meets the needs of multinational certification in America, Europe, Asia Pacific and other regions

Safety, NVH and EMC Test

BYD’s EMC and NVH laboratories are state of the art and meet national and international standards. Tested in these BYD labs, the BYD ebus has proven it does no electromagnetic harm and delivers an outstanding performance in noise, vibration and harshness. It’s safe, quiet and comfortable.

Wading Test

The degree of water ingress Protection of BYD ebus electrical components comply with IP67 norm, which means BYD ebuses pass the flooding test with 300mm water depth. Thus, The strong wading ability guarantees that the BYD ebus can operate well in heavy weather like rain storms or flooding.

Temperature Test

The BYD ebus does not only perform perfectly in extremely high temperature areas like Turpan in China, but also meets the expectations in very low temperatures like in the Nordics.

Road Tests

In line with the European road test standards, BYD ebus has successfully gone through a series of road tests with various loads (empty load, half load and full load) and road conditions (mountain,cobblestone ,sinusoidal, pitholes etc).

More about the battery

Advanced battery.


The heart of the BYD ebus: the battery. The power of BYD began with the development of small rechargeable batteries. Through years of research and development, we developed batteries to become efficient and more powerful. Simultaneously we worked towards creating the safest batteries in the business.

With our expertise in the three core technologies; batteries, electric motors and motor controllers, we know how to power buses and we know how to keep them going.

High performance.


With BYD’s proven technology, we strive to support your daily operations on a single charge, making opportunity charging no longer a necessity.

Battery Management System.

All BYD batteries are equipped with the Battery Management System offering various benefits:

Safety Management

Real-time monitoring of voltage, temperature, current and insulation performance to prevent battery over-charge and also protect against over-discharge.

Big Data Application

The battery management system realizes data transmission through the vehicle terminal. This supports real-time monitoring and active predictive analysis of battery operating data.

Battery Equalization

Smart battery equalization technology constantly adjusts the battery pack capacity, which eliminates inconsistent battery cell self-discharge resulting in extended mileage and service life.

Capacity Management

Due to this technology the system can accurately estimate the SOC (state of charge) of the battery, which supports precise estimation of mileage and automatic correction of battery nominal capacity.

Safety


To ensure the power battery’ s stability and safety, the Iron-Phosphate battery integrated in BYD ebuses has been proven by numerous rigorous tests, including Flame, Nail Penetration, Crush, Drop, Oven, Short Circuit, etc.

Thermal management.


BYD in-house developed BTMS (Battery Thermal Management System) is a liquid thermal management system that guarantees the battery temperature stays at the optimum operational temperature. This increases the safety and reliability of the battery system that enhance life of the battery and enables the vehicle to operate in extreme weather conditions.

Eco-friendly.


Of course battery-powered buses are inherently better for the environment than fossil-fuel alternatives. But BYD goes the extra mile by ensuring that the batteries themselves are also eco-friendly. Our Iron-Phosphate battery contains no heavy metals or toxic electrolytes, with no pollution or CO2 emissions during production.
