Battery makers and electric vehicle manufacturers used the Beijing Auto Show to showcase technologies promising shorter charging times, as China’s EV industry pushes to cut recharge periods [1].
The charging-time race has been driven by BYD and Contemporary Amperex Technology Ltd, better known as CATL, according to the source [1].
The show was also one of seven EV stories in the source package, alongside BYD’s first-quarter profit and Xpeng’s August goal to overtake self-driving tech in China [1].
The Beijing Auto Show remains the latest stage for Chinese EV brands to pitch faster charging as a selling point, with battery makers and automakers both using the event to present their latest systems [1].
