BYD unveils 5-minute EV charge breakthrough: Is Tesla in trouble?

BYD just flipped the script on EV charging. The Chinese automaker introduced a new fast-charging system that can add 249 miles of range in just five minutes, a claim that—if it holds up—could shake up the electric vehicle market.

Tesla has long led the charge in fast charging, but BYD is coming for the crown with what it describes as the Super e-Platform, capable of delivering up to 1,000 kW of peak charging power. The new BYD battery system brings EV charging up to speed with gas refueling, cutting wait times to just minutes.

The company is rolling out this technology in its upcoming Han L sedan and Tang L SUV, with pre-orders already open in China. But it’s not stopping there. BYD plans to install over 4,000 ultra-fast charging stations across China to support its growing fleet, a move that signals its intent to challenge Tesla’s dominance beyond just vehicle sales.

“BYD’s new battery and charging system was capable of providing around 400 kilometers (249 miles) of range in 5 minutes in tests on its new Han L sedan,” Bloomberg reported.
