"BYD also claims to have addressed the well-known issue of lithium iron phosphate cells losing performance in cold temperatures. After the cells were stored for 24 hours at –30 degrees Celsius and therefore completely frozen, charging from 20 to 97 per cent reportedly took just twelve minutes."

As the US sabotages the globe's fossil fuel infrastructure at the behest of Israel, China continues to build the future that will replace it. One by one, the naysayers' objections to EVs melt away. Can't do cold climates, they said - fixed. Can't cope with long journeys, they said - fixed.

As Napoleon once famously observed, 'never interrupt your enemy while they're making a mistake'. China must be thinking that, as the US helps hand it total dominance of the 21st century energy infrastructure.

As the US sabotages the globe’s fossil fuel infrastructure at the behest of Israel

Wait ... so maybe this war is actually based?

Yes! Let's attack every oil-producing country in the world, cause oil prices to skyrocket, and thus cause widespread adoption of EVs and renewable energy. It's the perfect plan!

The USA produces lots of fossiel fuel, enough for its own consumption and then some for export.

It's not obvious, at least to me, that high oil prices would negatively affect (US) oil companies.

Did I make an exception for the US? Obviously, the Trump regime will attack the US as well.

If you aren't being sarcastic, it's not based because over a thousand Iranian civilians have killed already
