Even in extreme cold, recharging only slows down marginally, the company added.
(March 6): China’s BYD Co unveiled more powerful batteries and faster charging capabilities, along with refreshed and new models, as the world’s largest electric-car maker seeks to reverse a deepening sales slump in its home market.
Among a suite of tech upgrades, BYD launched its latest generation of so-called “blade batteries” and ultra-fast flash charging architecture in Shenzhen on Thursday. The technology is capable of refilling the newest batteries from 10% to 70% in five minutes, and close to fully charged in nine minutes.
