Tesla Killer: China’s BYD Says It Can Now Charge an Electric Car in 5 Minutes
Chinese automaker BYD continues to leave Tesla in the dust. The company introduced a new battery system on Monday that it claims can charge an electric vehicle in just five minutes, about the same time it takes to refuel a traditional car.
