Revolutionary electric vehicle giant from China promises a drive range of 250 miles after a quick five-minute charge.
⚡️ BYD's Game-Changer: Super E-Platform vs Tesla's Superchargers 🗸
ktorque here, diving into the EV race heatin' up in China. Electric vehicle titan BYD made some noise, unveilin' their brand-new chargin' system, "Super E-Platform." This beast can charge BYD's latest models in a mere 5 minutes, takin' 'em to a distance of 250 miles. To back up this tech, they're plannin' to build 4,000 ultra-fast chargin' stations across China.
compare it to Tesla's Superchargers, which require 15 minutes to charge and net just 200 miles. Sounds like BYD's Chairman, Wang Chuanfu, has a lofty goal: makin' EV chargin' as swift as gasoline car refuelin'. The pre-orders for BYD's shiny new models with this snazzy chargin' tech started today, with deliveries set for next month. And, guess what? BYD's Hong Kong-listed shares skyrocketed over 6% to a record high on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, on Monday, Tesla offered free trials for its achingly-awaited Full Self-Drivin' (FSD) service in China, gamblin' on redeemin' themselves after a less-than-stellar upgrade to their advanced driver assistance system last month. This, despite regulatory limits preventin' Tesla from using data from its 2 million EVs to enhance the service. Dang, that's a bummer!
Things look rough for Tesla in China. Their sales plummeted over 19% in January compared to last year, droppin' them to fourth place in the market. Archrival BYD, on the other hand, claimed a whopping 32% share of the total market for new energy vehicle sales last year, despite jumblin' ships at a record clip. 🚢
Now, fire up your speakers for some bonus info:
👉 Tech Specs- BYD Super E-Platform: Up to 1,000 kW (1 MW), 1,000 V, 1,000 A, 10C charging, adds up to 400 km (249 miles) in 5 minutes.- Tesla Superchargers: Up to 500 kW, adds 100-150 miles in about 15 minutes.
👉 Key Differences- Speed: BYD's Super E-Platform outpaces Tesla's Superchargers in terms of peak charging power and speed.- Technology: BYD uses two DC chargin' inlets for high power, while Tesla's current Superchargers don't require that many.- Infrastructure: BYD plans to build 4,000 stations, while Tesla has a global network, but with lower peak power.
¯_(ツ)_/¯ By the looks of it, BYD's new chargin' tech is puttin' the pedal to the metal and burnin' past Tesla in both innovation and price. Stay tuned, folks! 🚗🔥

Cars and business are at the forefront of an intense electric vehicle race in China, as BYD reveals its new Super E-Platform charging system, aimed at charging models in just 5 minutes and capable of traveling 250 miles on a single charge. In comparison, Tesla's Superchargers require 15 minutes and offer only 200 miles of travel. Hong Kong-listed BYD shares soared by 6% after pre-orders for the new models equipped with this innovative technology started on Monday. Meanwhile, on the same day, Tesla offered free trials for its Full Self-Driving service in China, hoping to regain momentum after a less-than-stellar upgrade to their advanced driver assistance system last month. Despite regulatory restrictions preventing Tesla from using data from its 2 million EVs to enhance the service, the competition between these two companies continues to be underwhelming, with BYD's Super E-Platform outpacing Tesla's Superchargers in terms of speed, technology, and infrastructure planning.
