That particular charger had a rated power of 2 MW and was capable of charging two EVs at 1 MW each simultaneously or one EV at up to 1.5 MW, Pareschi told journalists during the technical briefing. Customers of the Euro-spec Z9 GT will be able to charge its 122.49 kWh battery pack from 10 to 70 per cent SoC in just five minutes and from 10 to 90 per cent in just nine minutes.</p><p>In China, BYD is rapidly rolling out the necessary technical upgrades for EVs across its multiple brands to make them compatible with its Flash Charging technology.
