The most eye-stealing highlight is the Flash Charging technology, which works in conjunction with the latest Blade Battery 2.0.
– Charging from 10% to 70% takes only 5 minutes.
– To charge to 97%, it only takes 9 minutes.
– Even in temperatures as low as -30°C, it can still be fast-charged in 12 minutes.
Why give the price in USD when the people who need them most in the US will not be able to buy them?
To specifically spur ground-up pressure on the US government to try to allow BYD and other manufacturers direct access to the US market, since there are effectively no EV manufacturers in the US except Tesla.
My Bolt EUV was made here. (I’m pretty sure, anyway.) That said, it was more expensive than $22,000 and is almost certainly not as good.
Probably all made locally. I was surprised the LG batteries were made in Michigan.
I have a soft spot for the Bolt. It has a great name and it helped (PH)EVs gain traction. But, yeah, you can get better cars.
My spot for it is downright squishy, I love the thing for various reasons in its context. I’m sure we could do better, though.
