BYD is improving its charging speeds.

cross-posted from: https://feddit.org/post/8756803

Models with 1000V support will be rolled out gradually in the coming months to the high-end models, allowing charging 300 km in 5 minutes, Auto Pixel reports. Compared with the 800V platforms, every additional 100V increases charging power by 25 kW at the same current.

Pretty crazy, that sounds like a big update to BYD models.

    This seems big. Slow charging times compared to filling with petrol is one of the things that frustrates me with regards to EVs. A ‘full tank’ in 5 minutes seems a lot more practical.
