The claimed charging times are 10% to 70% of the second-generation Blade Battery's capacity in five minutes, (and full charging in 9 minutes).....A five-minute charging time is close enough to how long it takes to fill up a regular gas-powered car with fuel, which can vary between three and five minutes from a gallon or two to full, depending on the pump.

The downside is that this only happens with BYD's fast chargers which can deliver 1,500 kW of power. There's not many of these yet outside China. Europe is getting 3,000 in 2027, but that's a small number compared to the existing 1.1 million public chargers in Europe.

Still, this is what the future looks like. The global tide has turned against fossil fuel cars, and as Ernest Hemmingway said about bankruptcy; its slow, and then suddenly fast decay ahead for them.
