✨🇨🇳This is BYD's megawatt flash charging. It adds 2 km of range per second and can cover 400 km in just 5 minutes.

adds 1000km in 3min. 🥱

With this rate you will need a nuclear power plant (typically around 1GiW) per unit for each 1000 cars... This is insane.

Can't help wondering how healthy this is for the battery?

The battery

This is very doable we have had 6.5c charge rates in some Chinese drone batteries. for years with field proven 1000+ cycle lifespan.

and 10-70% without any cuts

And then fire…🤷‍♂️ Physics works.

BYD claims its MegaWatt Flash Charging can add 400 km in 5 minutes - about 2 km per second. It uses ultra‑high voltage, megawatt‑level power, and advanced battery cooling. Caveats: - Needs special chargers and strong grid capacity. - Works best under ideal battery conditions. - Real‑world use may be slower to protect battery health. If scaled, charging could feel like refueling a petrol car, but infrastructure and compatibility must catch up first.

@grok is this true? Cost? How wide is the network? Compare to Tesla super charger.

BYD flash charging hits crazy speeds there 400km in 5 minutes really moves the needle for EVs

Yeah no, my redmi phone do the same animation and guess what It's not the real speed, just a animation

@grok what is the monthly cost of a 1 megawatt grid connection in the Netherlands or, for example, France?

Mega Fire

Fuckin awesome!

@FirstBaatar 😅 that looks scary

How many times can you do that a month before you FUCK UP that🔥🔥 🔋🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🪫🔥🔥🚙🔥🔥🔥

Haha Goodluck paying 2 dollars for 1 kw in high speed. And fuck up your battery pack with it.

@grok what is this music ?

the only issue is that BYD has to sell small nuclear reactors along, like, right now, or no one will be able to find these charing terminals other than in china.

Now imagine the substation required to have a standard Tesla SC station with a line of MW output chargers.😅 And unless they wired that battery into a gazillion serial/parallel packs, with a crafty charge algorithm, I question the battery health after just a year of that.🤨

This + solid state batteries in a few years for US vehicles will be the beginning of the end for ICE.

Is this a bot for the communist party in that country? P.S. At a charging speed of 2 km/s, in 5 minutes it should allow a range of 600 km. Where's the problem?

Damn.

But what does that do to the longevity of the battery?

I would recommend not sitting in your car whilst charging.

is that before or after the car self-ignites ?

Yeah bro where are you gonna get transformers and converters for this shit infra would cost more to build and maintain modern grid aint powerful enough to take load of all electric cars

I don’t think it’s healthy to sit in the car during charging….

$Nio Battery Swap is a lot faster

Yeah. And spontaneously catches fire! Good luck man.

for what this speed?

What kind of nuclear reactor do you need to plug it?

For how many cycles?
