For anyone wondering how the 29.58 kWh Blade Battery thermal management performs under heavy load, I logged live CAN-bus data via OBD2 on my Shark 6 during a 38°C ambient highway tow:

Key takeaway: BYD's direct refrigerant cooling plate keeps the LFP cells well below 40°C even in Australian summer conditions.

Ran the full spreadsheet on our BYD after 15,000 km Winter & Summer Log comparing total running costs (electricity, insurance, tyres, servicing, registration) against our previous 2.0L turbo petrol SUV.

Real-World Financial Breakdown:

• Fuel vs Electricity Savings: Charging 80% at home (solar + 8c/kWh off-peak) and 20% on public DC chargers cost $410 vs $3,850 in unleaded petrol over the same distance.
• FBT Exemption / Salary Sacrifice: Taking advantage of EV pre-tax leasing cut our effective monthly out-of-pocket cost by 32%.
• Warranty Support: Had a minor window regulator switch replaced under the 6-year / 150,000 km bumper-to-bumper warranty—parts arrived in 5 days with zero pushback.

@MarcusVance Swapped to Bosch Aerotwin + applied Gyeon Q2 View glass coating on the windscreen—completely silent in heavy rain now.

@LachlanThomas The 3-finger swipe inside full-screen Apple CarPlay is a lifesaver—no need to exit Google Maps or Waze just to drop the AC by 1 degree!
