BYD's latest EVs can get close to full charge in just 12 minutes

BYD's latest electric vehicles reach nearly full charge in just 12 minutes, a breakthrough that trumps even the fastest Superchargers. This 500 kW ultra-fast charging capability is 30% faster than the runner-up in this category and redefines the EV convenience baseline. The technology leverages advanced LFP blade batteries, achieving a 0–80% charge in 10 minutes, a concrete leap that signals a new battleground for automakers. It directly outperforms #5's wait-time reduction in its specific automotive context.
