Electric vehicle manufacturer BYD has announced a breakthrough in fast-charging technology, claiming its latest model can charge from 20% to a full 97% battery capacity in just 12 minutes—even in extreme cold conditions of -30 degrees Celsius. The development addresses a key challenge for EV adoption in winter climates, where charging efficiency often slows dramatically. Engineers have reportedly optimized battery chemistry and thermal management systems to maintain performance under freezing temperatures. Industry observers are likely to scrutinize whether this innovation could set a new benchmark for cold-weather charging speeds.
