Founder Wang Chuanfu said this “super electronic platform” Tech offers a peak charging speed of 1,000 kilowatts, twice the 500 kW charging currently offered by Tesla Soldchargers. That would mean the car could drive 249 miles (400 km) from five minutes of battery power from BYD station. Initially, this charging architecture will be offered in two vehicle models of BYD: the Han L Sedan and the Tang L SUV.
“To completely address the charging anxiety of users, we have been pursuing a goal to make the charging time of electric cars as short as the refueling time of gasoline cars,” Wang said.
The company also brought its fast charging technology to Chinese drivers for the first time. BYD plans to build 4,000 ultrafast charging units nationwide, although it does not provide a timetable or budget for the work.
