"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.
10–97% in nine minutes: BYD presents second generation of Blade Battery
Batteries don’t have ranges? The title is a bit annoying lol.
Fair, but a battery designed for vehicles with a known energy density can be easily described as having a range, because it currently has one primary application.
Not really. The efficiency of vehicles varies significantly. The range of the monstrous EV Hummer is not going to be the same as a more efficient vehicle, even with the same pack.
The title of the article is stupid and journalists should stop being stupid for clicks.
I can agree with all of that, well reasoned.
