BYD Unveils EV Charging Tech Delivering 400km in 5 Minutes

The groundbreaking Super E-Platform positions BYD as a global leader in EV innovation, but infrastructure and battery longevity challenges remain.

BYD's Super E-Platform achieves a record-breaking 1,000kW charging power, enabling 400km of range in just five minutes.
The technology will debut in BYD's Han L sedan and Tang L SUV, with plans to roll out 4,000 ultra-fast charging stations across China.
BYD's innovation outpaces competitors like Tesla, whose fastest chargers provide 170 miles of range in 15 minutes.
The system uses BYD's Blade battery with lithium iron phosphate chemistry, enhancing safety but raising concerns about long-term battery health under frequent ultra-fast charging.
The announcement has intensified global EV market competition, boosting BYD's market value while Tesla's shares dropped significantly.
