BYD Already Has 10,000 Flash Charging Stations. Charging in 9 Minutes Is the Reality

SAPO Notícias30 August 2026 at 21:30

BYD reached the mark of 10,000 Flash Charging stations, a significant milestone in charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. This technology allows charging an electric vehicle in just 9 minutes, transforming fast charging into an accessible reality.

For years, range was identified as the main obstacle to electric automobiles. However, many current models can already travel 500, 600 or more kilometers with a full charge, which caused this concern to lose relevance.

With the range issue largely resolved, the discussion is shifting to another problem: charging speed. BYD's Flash Charging technology directly addresses this concern, offering charging times comparatively much faster than conventional ones.
